It is pleasurable being in contact with you and getting the desired support, for that i am feeling free inquiring about some aspects related to my graduation project.
Well here i am facing a problem with my database. I had created a full Pocket Pc project i added references, datasources and data connection for the SQL Mobile Database i am using. While i do an query like insert,update, delete, select it works on the pocket pc emulator and i check with the emulator query analyzer. What i am asking about that i am not able to see those updates in the mobile database in the sql server 2005 mobile edition, everything is done only in the emulator but after i exit the application and check my mobile server the database is still empty !!
I appreciate your hard working, and i do believe that there is someone here who is going to provide me with the support i need.
I am looking forward to getting your reply soonly.
I don't understand why I am having this error. It does create the database on AddSubscription() method but it is failing opening the database on Synchronise(). I have also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling all the SQL Mobile components in the following order.
suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.
I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is
Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database
My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.
I am developping a non-managed C++ application for PocketPC using a SQL Server mobile database.
The application is compiled for PocketPC 2003 and uses SQL Server Mobile v2. I use Visual Studio 2005. But I need to compile the application for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. So I installed the WM5 SDK and had the WM5 into my project configuration.
The "ssceoledb.h" which I include incluses the "transact.h" file. But my problem is that this file is only provided with the PocketPC 2003 SDK and not in the WM5 SDK. So I cannot use the WM5 configuration project with SQL Server. I also tried with the last SQL Server Mobile 2005 (ie v3.0) and the "ssceoledb30.h" also includes "transact.h".
Did I miss something to install ? Do you know how I can resolve the problem ?
Using MS VS 2005 (incl SQL Server Mobile) MS Pocket PC 2005 SDK
I am working on a project that builds for Pocket PC on both Mobile 2003 and Mobile 5. The project uses/will use SQL Server Mobile to store local data.
Project created from new with support for both platforms. I include required header files ssceerr30.h and ssceoledb30.h.
Project builds fine in WM2003 configuration, release and debug.
When I build for WM5 the compiler cannot find the header file transact.h. This is included from within ssceoledb30.h. Same as under WM2003.
In WM2003 configuration if I highlight the ssceoledb30.h include in Visual Studio and open the header, it takes me to <Visual Studio dir>SmartDevicesSDKSQL ServerMobilev3.0. I then locate the include for transact.h and do the same, which takes me <Visual Studio dir>SDKPocketPC2003include. The file exists.
If I repeat the above 'browsing' under the WM5 configuration, ssceoledb30.h takes me to a different copy in the WM5 SDK directory. There is no diff between the file here and the other copy used by WM2003. If I attempt to open transact.h - file does not exist.
Fix (which I'm not too sure about, i.e. is it OK?) - If I copy transact.h to the WM5 SDK directory, the project builds.
Why has transact.h disappeared from WM5 SDK? I can find no ref's to this problem anywhere. Is my installation of the WM5 SDK corrupt? What else could I be missing? Is there a sample for SQL Server mobile (like the NorthwindOLEDB sample) that comes configured to build for WM5?
I receive error 25123 on my PPC (audiovox 6600) in a reproducable way (usually) with .net 2.0 application that is using SQL CE that I wrote:
Open the application Connect to the database Close the applicaton Re-Open the application Connect to the database <-- Error occurs
I will also receive the error if my application isn't the first application launched (or very close to the first to launch).
I don't believe it's a memory issue as according to the memory manager I have plenty of memory:
At boot up only start screen items loaded: 18.46 Used 49.89 Free Launch Resco File Explorer to click EXE: 19.18 Used 49.18 Free Launch my application (no DB connection): 23.64 Used 44.71 Free Connect to the DB and do select count(*) from a table with 0 rows: 26.27 Used 42.08 Free Close the application (this.Close() on the form: 19.38 Used 48.97 Free Relaunch App and connect to DB receive error: around 38 Used around 30 free
I was unable to reproduce the issue right now while typing this message, the last sets of numbers are from memory, and include other applications that are currently running.
The only way I have to get SQL CE to load again is to soft reset the PPC. If the application is able to connect to SQL CE at least once it is fine up till I close it and re-open the application. So it either connects and runs great, or it can't connect at all.
Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated. Wayne
Hi folks, I'm new to Windows Mobile progamming, and new to this forum. Apologies in advance if I'm asking a boneheaded question, but I've done searches and can't find anything directly applicable to my problem.
I'm currently walking through the published MS tutorial in setting up an SQL Server 2005 Mobile application that subscribes to a publication on SQL Server 2005 to exchange information.
I've gotten almost all the way through... successfully set up the server components, creating the publication, etc. On the mobile side, I've been able run the cab files to install the SQL Mobile components and to create the project, add the reference to the dll, and instantiate an engine object. It compiles.
The step in the tutorial after that, though, where you specify the data source from the "data" menu, I've got a problem. When I try to use the "new connection" dialog from choosing the data connection, "MS SQL Server Mobile Edition" doesn't show up as a choice. I've tried choosing any of the other combinations, and in teh subsequent "Connection properties" section my database, SQLMobile (as in their sample) is available, but I get an error when I choose it and click OK. Clicking on "Test Connection" gives me a connection successful message.
My guess is that something about the Mobile server side components is not installed correctly on my development machine, but honestly I have no idea how to begin to fix it. Has anyone seen this problem before and know how to resolve it?
Your time and any knowledge sharing is greatly appreciated. Thank you, -Dana
This is a great tutorial and it's a shame one of the more important steps was missed. In the €œCreate the snapshot user€? section you you find the steps to create the snapshot_agent account. Then in the €œCreate the snapshot folder€? section you find the share and folder permissions. However, at no point do the instructions advise you about adding the snapshot_agent to the SQL Server Logins. The result is that agent cannot perform the initial snapshot but you won't find this out until 50 steps later after Step 10 in the section €œCreate a new subscription".
To get back on track, openthe Object Explorer's Security section and add the snapshot_agent to your logins. Then using the "User Mappings", set an appropriate level for the SQLMobile database role. Once completed you then need to run the agent.
Right-click the SQLMobile publication you created and select "View Snapshot Agent status". From that dialog you can select "Start" to run the agent. When it completes, you can return to the tutorial section "Create a new subscription" and continue with the tutorial.
I am studying the tutorial in SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Books Online, and the topic is Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile. I have got a problem when creating a new subscription after created a new SQL Server Mobile database. And the problem is shown below:
New Subscription Wizard
- Beginning Synchronization (Success)
- Synchronizing Data (100%) (Error) Messages * Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect. HRESULT 0x80004005 (29061)
* 無法完æˆ?作æ¥ã€‚
- Finalizing Synchronization (Stopped)
- Saving Subscription Properties (Stopped)
Before I have met this problem, I have finished all the task. And I can browse the localhost web site by using anonymous account even I use internet explorer or browse the directly in IIS.
When I try and connecto to SQL CE I always get an invalid operation exception. I"m afraid that I did not follow the proper install for Orcas Beta 2. I can't remember if I was supposed to uninstall SQL Mobile 2005 first or not.
All I know is when I try and use my SQL CE I can't connecto to a DB / sdf file ?
Any help would be appreciated I"m just starting to use SQL CE.
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2005 Mobile on a Trimble GeoExplorer (GeoXT). It is running Microsoft Pocket PC v4.20. I've installed on a WM5 device without any problems, but can't seem to get it to work with this device. Regardless of what CAB I use, it says "Unsupported System Version" and will not install. I've tried using both:
I am geeting following error while trying to acquire db connection. I use sql server ce2.0 with vs2005 Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework Data Provider
I've installed sqlce30.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB on an HP iPaq 1950 Pocket PC, provided by the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Device SDK, http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5BD8ABAA-5813-4DB3-B23A-24551DE2ECC1&displaylang=en
When I tried to interact with it, I got an error message that the .NET Compact Framework 2.0 was missing on the pocket PC.
So I installed the .NET CF v2.0 SP1 found at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=0c1b0a88-59e2-4eba-a70e-4cd851c5fcc4&displaylang=en and it updated both the local machine and the Pocket PC.
However, now when I use my local SSMS to talk to the SQL Server Mobile Engine, I keep getting the error:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition and/or .NET Compact Framework v2.0 is not properly installed on your mobile device or the device is not responding. (SQL Server Mobile Edition ADO.NET Data Provider)
(Now I know I can communicate with the Pocket PC because I browse out to it first)
Am I missing something more fundamental, or does this not work with a non-RTM framework?
An update was supposed to be released for SQL Server Mobile which enabled support for CE 4.2. This was supposed to be released around the time of CF 2.0 sp1. SP1 came out over a month ago and there is still no sign of the SQL Mobile update. Does anyone have any information on a release date ?
Server 1: Windows 2003 inc IIS. Also on this server is SQL Server Web sync web service and it has an external IP address for internet connectivity
Server 2: Windows 2003 inc SQL Server 2005. This server has a database setup with replication so the a Window Mobile 5 device can do a merge replication.
My problem is that the replication fails when trying to send the snap shot from Server 2 to the mobile device. The device seems to get through to the replication agent, as entries in the Replication monitor are logged (see below).
I have checked all the permissions on the relevant shares required for replication (basically set "Everyone" with full access).
My initial question would be.... When the snapshot is been sent to the mobile device, does the SQL Server try to send it directly to the internet or does it go through "SQL Server Mobile Server Agent 3.0".
Please can someone help, as this is causing me some REAL problems.

I would like to know if we can install both versions of mobile SQL (SQL CE 2.0 and SQL Mobile 2005) on the same PDA. I know that two versions of CF .Net can be installed.
Indeed, I have an old CF .Net 1.3 application connecting to a SQL CE 2.0 database and a new one using CF 2.0 and SQL Mobile 2005. The first one will be migrated but in the future ... Meanwhile, the customer wants to run the two applications without any code modification.

I am creating a PDA application that will use RDA to sync with my SQL Server 2005.
My question is do I need to have the sql server mobile actually installed on my PDA?
I was following an article about RDA, and it said nothing about installing mobile edition on the PDA, when I tried the example it kept on giving me the following error "can't find PInvoke dll sqlceme30.dll"
After looking for research on this error, I have another question about the installation. If the sql mobile needs to be installed, does it have to be in the main memory or on the memory card?
I am writing an application for Tablet PC's that I was planning on using SQLServer Mobile for since it is recommended to not use MSDE. HOWEVER, when I started looking at what I need to do to pull in the SQLServer Mobile for the application, I find that you have to have the Compact Framework. Is there a way to use SQLServer Mobile on a TabletPC or am I barking up the wrong tree??
I have SQL Management Studio (2005). I just installed SQL Mobile SDK. When I start Management Studio, I do not have SQL Mobile Server in the drop-down to select from. I do have CE Server. Do I need to Download something else or change some settings somewhere?
I am an experienced web developer using PHP and MySql have experience with VB.
What is the best way for me to learn programming pocket pc's? Is using sql server mobile the best offline database to use as I will be using MySql Compact framework to connect direcly to our Linux server.
Any help is much appreciated as I can't seem to find any useful tutorials on quering an sql databse to update, insert, read or delete. I have created a datebase however, I just don't know how to use it.

While trying to complete the exercise, I encountered the following unexpected behaviour:
While configuring the subscription for the SQL Mobile (from the tutorial €“ To complete the subscription) section, I encountered the following error €“
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio ------------------------------

So I confirmed that the SQL Server Agent is running, went to the publication, right clicked and clicked on €œView Snapshot Status€?. The result is €œThe agent has never been run.€? Even when I Click on Start, it starts to run the agent but terminates with the same message as mentioned before.
The SQL server Agent runs under €œNetworkService€? account. I have tried changing the Agent Security (on Publication properties) to specifying my network credentials explicitly as well with no success..
On checking the SQL Server Agent logs, following error is reported: ate 12/21/2005 5:20:02 PM Log SQL Agent (Current - 12/21/2005 5:20:00 PM)
