Microsoft Visual Sutdio For Applications Has Lost The Link To .
Jul 23, 2007
Hello,
I am struggling with a really ugly problem in SSIS.
I am designing SSIS package where I have a couple of Script tasks. Let's call them Script Task 1 and Script Task 2. Everything was working fine until this morning I added another Script taks (Script Task 3), which was trying to do some rudementary file manipulation. At that point I started getting this message:
"Microsoft Visual Sutdio for Applications has lost the link to .
Your work will be exported to c:documents and settings".
This is it! "lost a link to "dot". After this, the VS environment continues to run in debug mode, so it doesn't even crash stirctly speaking. I can stop debugging and continue developing, but nothing would run anymore and I would keep getting the same error. Moreover, after removing Script Task 3 (which seems to be the culprit), I would still keep getting the same error! Only removing all the script tasks completely and then adding them back gets the package to run again.
I am new to sql server express editions. starter kits and Sample applications link provided in the sites are not working. Can anyone provide me the alternate link where I can dwnld them from
I am having a nightmare getting an answer about what type of licensing I will need for the standard addition of SQL Server 2005 for my asp.net application and wonder if anyone has any advice. As I see it its very simple, I have a web app that makes a connection to SQL via a connection string using a single username and password, no impersonation just straight SQL authentication. For this simple scenario I figured I would need to get a SQL 2005 license and then 1 Client access license (CAL), this being a nice affordable way of doing things BUT I am being told by different sources, that I may need to license on a per processor basis as any user of my web application, anonymous or otherwise needs a client access license and given that I don’t know how many users are going to access my website I would need to go for the larger outlay and purchase two standard processor license (my sql server is a dual processor machine). Can anyone tell me if this is the case, is a connection from a ASP.Net website to a SQL server for my website visitors regarded as a new client and therefore needs a client access license or the large investment of a per processor license? I would stick with SQL Express but at 4gigs max it won’t do the job. Thanks in advance.
I have a query that executes just fine except that it won't recognize varchar(255) ( or any other value within the () ) and if I leave it off like this: varchar, then it executes but it leaves that value as 1 and that is just not very useful for my purposes. This also happens with anything else that requires () to add length such as char(), or nvarchar(), etc... Any ideas?
A test installation script I ran on my dev rig seems to have broken the OLE DB Provider for Sql Server. The uninstall must have deleted a DLL or unregistered a lib. When I try to connect to a SQL database from this machine now get the following error:
==
Microsoft Data Link Error
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. Unspecified error.
==
It is not the connection string because this was working fine prior to me running the test installation script.
Can you give advice on how to repair the SQL Server data provider for WinXP SP2?
I have tried to re-install MDAC 2.8 with no success due SP2 diallowing this. I uninstalled SP2 and re-installed MDAC 2.8 but the problem remains.
I'm all out of ideas, so any help would be appreciated.

I have installed the The Microsoft Report Viewer 2008 Redistributable Package and I add the report viewer component to my toolbox list.
while viewing the report viewer in my solution ...i was getting the error as given below..
Note: InnerException = {"The report definition is not valid. Details: The report definition has an invalid target namespace 'http://schemas.microsoft.com /sqlserver/reporting/2007/01/reportdefinition' which cannot be upgraded."}
I've a computer with W2K SP4 installed. Previously SQL Express 2005 worked but according to the user it "just stopped working".
When selecting database on the server in the "Data Link Properties"-window he is given the following error message:
"Microsoft Data Link" "Login failed. Catalog information cannot be retrieved" followed by "Microsoft Data Link Error" "Connection failure" Note: He is not given the error message "Server does not exist or access denied!"
- The SQL service is started (can be stopped and restarted without problem) - I've re-installed SQL Express. - I've checked and is certain the server name is correct (i.e. computernameSQLEXPRESS)
All, I need a help from you all. I am getting this error if the users are running the application which is connecting from MSAccess97 to SQL Server 2000. Error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Communication link failure I would appreciate if you send me the resolution for this problem. Thanks, Reddy
I get the message Microsoft [ODBC Sql server driver]communication link failure error message in my VB 6 application with MSDE engine. This error does not happen often. My connection string is as below.
Several of our customers are getting a message intermitantly throughout the day where the connection is closed. The message being generated is [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Communication Link Failure.
These messages started in the last two weeks.
Thanks for any direction that can be thrown my way.
I am having issues with sql commands. I have 2 tables joined that shows me set sales and equipment sold to customers. Now my issue is I dont want all the customers showing. Their is a field that is types of sales (aka on rent, reserved). When I do a querie it shows all cust for all types of sales. What would the command and how would it look. I thought about it and i figured I should use a If cust type sale is = to on rent and reserved then show cust name. The next thing is I dont want this to be the primary filter and it should only be a filter for cust name and not affect the results of the info already gathered. any help would be great thanks.
I am new to all SQL Related. I am trying to create a datasource to our old database we used in the company to write reports on the data. when I create a new data source and enter all required info, when testing the connection, i get a reply that I do not have the necessary permissions to use this object, although my account is specified as an administrator? can somebody please explain this to me.
Im quite interested to see if any one is using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0 in an SSIS package. Is it possible to use this for free table directory like you can with the ODBC driver. ????
thanks kindly
My basic proccess is as follows: The source foxpro database has hundreds of dbf files ---the SSIS procress is as follows
1: Copy only required dbf files and/or matching .fpt files over to local drive on SSIS box(we only need 10 files)
use MS Visual Foxpro ODBC driver (free table option) and set up a system DSN--dataflow tab---datareader source--and away you go
I get this message in a balloon that pops up frequently when I am trying to work in the SSIS designer. For example, I get it when working in a DataFlow task, trying to open editors for the OleDb Source and Destination. Is anyone else getting this? What could be the cause, it seems to get sluggish. Thanks.

I am no longer able to manage SQL Server at the server explorer in Visual studio. i.e. create, modify and delete for Diagrams, Tables, Views, Stored Procs & Functions. Further more, it missing Diagram and function folder. I can only view or read data.
How do you define a JDBC datasource in Microsoft Visual Studio? I am using Microsoft Visual Studio to develop reports for SSRS and would like to connect to DB2 via JDBC. Attempting to use the SQL JDBC install as a example, I don't see how to define the SQL JDBC driver to Visual Studio. The SQL JDBC runtime install is very clear, but I don't see how to use this type of datasource in Visual Studio.
Hi there guys, I am currently trying to achieve a seemingly simple task in VC++ 2005. I have made a very simple form in Microsoft Access which I wish to serve as the beginnings of something greater. I created a db in MS Access named links.mdb containing on table-> Table1. Table1 contains 1 column, "Links", and i wish to read these strings into variables in my Visual C++ Windows Forms Application.
What I have done so far...
In Visual C++, I clicked on Data->Add new data source, and followed the wizard to add the microsoft access database to my application by the name, "linksDataSet". I can see the table in my left hand "Data Sources" pane in VC++. All I need to know is how to access my database from here so that I can read these strings stored in my table. Also, would be possible to schedule my application to log on to a http server and retrieve these links every time the application is executed? How would I go about doing this?
I'm in a SSIS Package Design tab working on a data flow. It was working fine up to now, but all of a sudden I keep getting this error that says, "Microsoft Visual Studio has encountered a problem and needs to close." And it has that "Send Error Report" and "Don't Send" button at the bottom. This started happening when I tried to add a Data Viewer on a Data Flow Path. And now every time I do this to try to debug my data flow, it gives me this message and closes my project.
However, the package executes without any package errors, but I as I described above, I can't add a Data Viewer because it keeps giving me this message and closing my package.
I have around 160 packages in SSIS. When i run these packages, after some times the errror comes that the system is low on virtual memory and then visual studio freezes. I have a machine with 1G memory. All these packages are not running parallely but they have some dependencies defined on them.
Please let me know if theres some way to configure it correctly,
I have created one Custom Task in SSIS. Basically I have one solution and 2 class library project one for Task and one for UserInterface when i try to drag new task from tool box it says following errror =================================== Failed to create the task.

I'm now getting this with great regularity. Dell PWS390,2gig,Big HD,experienced user C++...Refactor recently installed although I do not use it. CLEARLY, the hang comes when one highlites a line and then cursors down to highlight additional lines...I believe this invokes refactoring --- while pre-refactoring install would get a hang occasionally, I now get one frequently. I am uninstalling refactor....
Over the weekend, I loaded the SQL Server SP2 on to my production database after having it on my dev server for two weeks with out any problems.
After I did this, I went to check all my SSIS packages and found them not able to load. I get this message €œMicrosoft Visual Studio is unable to load this document: The package failed to load due to error 0xC0010014 €œOne or more error occurred. There should be more specific errors preceding this one that explains the details of the errors. This message is used as a return value from functions that encounter errors€?. This occurs when CPackage::LoadFromXML fails.
I installed the hotfix available at support.microsoft.com/kb/936971 and even rebooted the server, but I am still getting the error. I am working on a Windows 2003 server with SQL Server 2005 (and reporting services). I am not trying to publish any reports using SSRS. I'm just working on designs and saving them. Any help for this at this point? Leigh
I have all this gray space at the top of my tasks. When I <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Left-click> to select all of my tasks and then try sliding it up, it creates even more gray space and actually moves it down. If instead when I <Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Left-click> and then <Ctrl>+<Arrow-up> it doesn't move it. Is there any easy way to eliminate all this gray space at the top?
I've downloaded & installed Visual Web developer Express and SQL Server Express and now I'm trying to install the Reporting Add-In available here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/downloads/default.aspx
It downloads just fine and, just as the installation progress bar is almost done and the status text says 'Registering Product', I get the following error message:
"There is a problem with this windows installer package. A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected. Contact your support personell or package vendor"
Running VWD shows the ReportViewer control now appears in the 'data' group. I can add it to a form, but I cannot create a new report, as clicking on 'Design a new report' under the ReportView Tasks popup menu does nothing.
I watched and followed the Intro to VB 2008 Express, but in the final part of the video, when you add a database, i did everything as the video says, still i get:
An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details. The error is: Unable to load DLL 'sqlceme35.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E)
Ive tried the fix stated in another forum, the one about changing the "Target CPU" but the option doesn appear, what does appear its the "Platfrom" dropdown list, but its fixed to "Any CPU" and dont have any more options.
Ive also downloaded Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 ENU and "re-installed" and selected repair, followed the steps, rebooted and still nothing.
