Error Message: Failed To Generate A User Instance Of SQL Server. Only An Integrated Connection Can Generate A User Instance

Mar 3, 2008

 Hello everybody,I was configuring a SqlDataSource control using SQL Authentication mode.I first added a database file (testdb.mdf) through Solution Explorer-Add New Items. Then through Database Explorer I created a table named "info"Then while configuring  the SqlDataSource control I used the SQL Authentication mode and attached the "testdb.mdf" database file.Test Connection showed success. But when I hit the Ok button of the wizard it displayed the following error message:Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server. Only an integrated connection can generate a user instance.While configuring the  SqlDataSource control I clicked "New Connection". Under Data Source section I tried both Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft SQL Server Database File. And in both the cases I attached a databese file(testdb.mdf).          Plz enlighten me on this.Thanks and Regards,Sankar.

SQL Server 2008 :: Random GUID And New SequentialID

Mar 20, 2015

I have a DB using random GUID values as a PK. I know it should not be that way but it is third party and I am trying to persuade them to do something else, like a sequential GUID using NEWSEQUENTIALID. My question is this. Since I have GUID values already in the database, if we change the table definition from simply uniquidentifier to NEWSEQUENTIALID what is to keep NEWSEQUENTIALID from generating a GUID that already exists and creating a PK violation?

How Do You Generate Primary Keys With SQL Server?

Oct 26, 2005

Hi,

The way i generate my primary keys is to keep a table

PrimaryKeyTable
PrimaryKeyName : varchar (name of the primary key, for example UserID)
PrimaryKeyID : int (the next key should have the number stored in that
field, if it was 12 then next time i add a row the UserID will be 12)

After adding a row, i increment the value of primaryKeyID.

Is there a way to let SQL server to handle the primary key? To let SQL generate the key himself instead of me?

Thanks,

Generate A Text File From SQL Server

Feb 23, 2006

Hi

I need to generate a text file from SQL Server. The task automatically runs daily.

The format of the text file use "/" to separate the field and the row. At the end of the file, it adds number of char  and uses "". The number of char includes the data parts and excludes a few word of "the number of char".

For example,
The underline fonts mean the first row record. The Bold fonts mean the second row record. The Italic fonts mean the third row record. The red fonts mean the number of char and the end of file.

1/060222/008888/234/1/7441/2/BB/10000//////290025/////1/060222/008888/234/1/7441/3/XX/100-//////290025/////1/060222/008881/234/1/7442/2/BB/10000//////290025/////161

I am no idea about this problem. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks a lot

4. When you select Add, the message "Failed to Generate User Instance of SQL Server ... " appears.
5. I am running SQL Express. What is the correct fix to get this simple process to work?

Oct 5, 2006

Hello all,

I have a VB.NET 2005 windows based application that uses the Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block and SQL Server Express and I am having an issue getting the application to install and run from a Setup Package.

I have included the Prerequisites of SQL Server Express, .NET Framework and Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Report Viewer in my setup project and when I run setup.exe that was created by my Setup Project, it appears everything is installed correctly on the client pc. However, when I go to run the application if get the following error:

I ran the SSEUTIL program with the -l option and it returns the message of:

Can anyone please tell me what it is that I'm doing wrong and how I can get this to work? I'm up against a deadline and this is killing me!

GUID

May 26, 2006

Hello,

I'm working on a smart client app that has an offline sql express store and needs to work with several types of central databases (support for multiple products - ms sql, DB2 etc)

While trying to put together some offline functionality that needs the user to create records on the offline sql express data store, we've run into the need of being able to uniquely identify records so replicating the data in the offline store back into the primary database should not be a problem.

The data created offline spans many tables and involves several tables with relation ships - FK etc...Clearly not a simple case of store and forward.

We dont want to get into the mess of performing key replacement during a synch job with the server. Thats way too much trouble.

GUID seems like a good choice, but as always we have several stake holders having different opinions. And with databases other than MS SQL we will have to store them as strings.

To cut to the chase - can we not hash a GUID to get an integer while retaining atleast the same likelyhood of producing unique ids ? [no drop]

Thanks,

Aviansh
