OLEDB Error When Using Visual FoxPro Driver
Aug 30, 2007
Hi all,
I created a package that extracts records from a .DBF file into an SQL Server database. I installed a Visual FoxPro plugin (vfpoledb). When I run the package from my PC, it runs smoothly. But, when I try to run the same package in another PC, it displays a DTS_E_OLEDBERROR "Class not registered" error. Anyone has an idea about what this means? thanks in advance.

Hi,
Does anyone know if the VisualFoxPro 9.0 OLEDB driver supports parameters? Trying to pass parameterised queries from SSIS results in the error reported below, which implies it does support parameters, but that SSIS is not calling the driver properly somehow.
Regards,
Richard
-----------------------------------------------
Error MsgBox:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Parameters cannot be extracted from the SQL command. The provider might not help to parse parameter information from the command. In that case, use the "SQL command from variable" access mode, in which the entire SQL command is stored in a variable.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Provider cannot derive parameter information and SetParameterInfo has not been called. (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro)

After installing sql2005 sp2 a simple select query to a linked server reports the following error message:
Msg 0, Level 11, State 0, Line 0A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.Msg 0, Level 20, State 0, Line 0A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
Before installing SP2 we used sql2005 without any service packs, the linked server worked fine.
The linked server is a Visual FoxPro database.
After uninstalling and installing the 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0' the issue stil remains.

Hi,
I have 2 separate clients experiencing this problem,
Both systems are
1.Win 2000 Server with Small Business Server 2000 (SP4)
2.SQL Server 2000 (SP2 upgraded to SP4, SP4)
3.Exchange
4.IIS etc
We use SQL Server to connect to FoxPro 2.6 Tables.
We are using OPENROWSET as follows:
Select * from openrowset('VFPOLEDB.1','C:Client Data';;,'Select * from cm')
We are now getting this error:
Server: Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Could not fetch a row from OLE DB provider 'vfpoleDB.1'. OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'vfpoleDB.1' IRowset::GetNextRows returned 0x80040155].
The statement worked up until around 20 days ago, which made us think that it may be windows updates/sps/hotfixes, but i have installed the above on a test machine and installed all windows updates and the test machine works AOK.
Has anybody seen this error?
Thanks in advance

I have a report that accessed a Visual FoxPro 6.0 database via ODBC. Since I upgraded to Visual FoxPro 9.0, now I am getting the error:
Query Server Error
DMS-E-RBI_TABLE The table or view <table name> was not found in the dictionary
I've verified that the right path is setup and I've tried installing about every driver and none of them are working. I created a new database in 9.0 and the I can access it fine. Also, there are old tables that are accessible in the same path, just not the ones I need. Any ideas would be helpful..

All,
I'm getting a strange error in SSRS when there is no data returned from a OLEDB datasource.
Here are the steps to simulate the error
1. Create 2 shared datasources to the Adventure Database - one using ADO MD provider (Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services (AdomdClient)) and another using OLEDB (OLEDB 9.0 for Analysis Services)
2. Create a new report and create a dataset with the ADO-MD provider and copy and paste the below query. (This query will not return any data)
SELECT NON EMPTY [Measures].[End of Day Rate] ON 0 ,NON EMPTY {[Date].[Date].&[10000]} ON 1 FROM [Adventure Works]
3. Run report. It will be blank as nothing is defined in the layout. But this shows that the query is executed in the dataset and is succesfull although the query does not return any data.
4. Create another report and create a dataset with the OLE-DB provider and copy paste the above query.
5. Run the report. It will come back with error in the lines of "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". The reporting services log file will show that the query execution has failed although this is not the case when analysed from profiler.
Any ideas on how to solve this? What I'm trying to acheive is to use the NoRows property of table to display a message when there is no data. But I'm not able to pass the above hurdle when no data is returned from the dataset.
Thanks in advance.
Arun.

Hi,
Today was my first day to use DTS. I tried to transfer a Visual FoxPro Database to my SQL Server. I noticed that I am getting errors on the data that contains date fields. So, for testing purposes I transformed the Visual FoxPro fields that contained datefields into char fields. And this works, but obviously I cannot hunt around in a huge database looking for datefields in tables and change them manually. Plus, by changing to char fields I noticed that those fields that are empty are transformed as 1899-12-30. :p
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Laura

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

Good day,
Current Setup:
Using:
Visual Web Developer Express
SQL Express
IIS 6.0 with >net 2.0 Installed
Visual Foxpro
I actually have two questions (but am making good progress so will focus on the issue at hand).
1. I setup a Login.aspx / Default.aspx / Register.apsx / Membership.aspx as specified in the examples in MSDN...all is working ok.
2. When I register a new user, I wanted to capture their Customer ID during login to store in their Membership view table. I did this and is working ok....and to make it easy, am storing the value in Comments field.
3. I want to query a Visual Fox free table (DBF) that contains my client's Customer Invoice data...and have the ODBC Connection setup and working properly.
Here's the problem....
I'm having trouble formulating the SELECT string within the asp code to capture the Membership.Comments field.
I need the proper functions to grab the Comments field data and then use it within my select statement.
Presently, the query works if I just hard-code the value i.e.
"SELECT * from [invdata] WHERE cus_no = '1' "
I need to replace the '1' with the comments field data.
Thanks:
On a side issue: it took me days to just to get this all working to where it is...does anyone have a detailed example of how to Login to a site and pass the parms to another page to query the Logged In user's data from a database......a real world example that I have yet to see highlighted anywhere in the Forums or books I've bought.
For example: I am customer ABC123, I log in to my vendor's site and want to see all my orders placed.

I am trying to add a FoxPro linked server to MS SQL 2005, and I can't seam to create a linked server that works. What am I doing wrong in linking the server?
I have an ODBC connection that worked but not OLEDB; how can I do this with OLEDB (either VFPOLEDB or Jet, if it will work) and not ODBC.
This is what I thought was right
Code Snippet
sp_addlinkedserver 'test',
'FoxPro',
'VFPOLEDB',
'C:DataSomeDatabase.dbc',
NULL,
NULL,
NULL
But it gives the error:
Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "test".
Also I know in MS SQL 2000 once you linked a server you could view it in EM, but when I linked the VFP via ODBC I could query agianst it, but I could not open it in Mangament Studio.
Thank you in advance.

I've downloaded and installed the latest VFPOLEDB (12/04) on 2 separate SQL Server boxes.
In both cases, If I connect to SQL Server with Query Analyzer as (local) while on a box, the linked server to my foxpro database works fine with openquery().
However, If I'm at one box and attached to SQL Server on the other box, the openquery() fails.
Here's some particulars:
---
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server='VFP',
@provider='VFPOLEDB',
@datasrc='\hdmcpdctis1 isrnddata',
@srvproduct='Visual FoxPro'
--this works on either (local) box
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY(VFP, 'select * from tislists')
Go
--but, the same openquery() above doesn't work if the box I'm running it from is attached to the SQL Server on the other box. I get:
Server: Msg 7302, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not create an instance of OLE DB provider 'VFPOLEDB'.
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: CoCreate of DSO for VFPOLEDB returned 0x80040154].
=====================
One other approach I tried that works while on the (local) box, but fails when attached to the SQL Server on the other box:
select * from openrowset('MSDASQL',
'Driver=Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver;SourceType=DBF;SourceDB= \hdmcpdctis1 isrnddata ',
'select * from [tislists.DBF]')
With error:
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver does not support this function]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDASQL' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
===========================
Any Help is greatly appreciated! Thanks,

I'm running SQL Server 2008 (x64) version.
How can i create a linked server for Microsoft Visual Foxpro databases ?
I'm using Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 driver.
I success create a linked server, and can browse all tables from linked server connections, but why when query data using
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(PIP_TEST,'select * from tbctrl')
It getting error message
Cannot process the object "select * from tbctrl". The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "pip_test" indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions on that object.

Windows XP Pro - Sql Server 2005 Management Studio (current) - current visual foxpro oledb driver
I have an origin data folder with many foxpro dbf files
When I go through the "wizard" to import data from the origin folder using the "free table" option, I can locate the folder just fine. The form shows me a list of the files in the folder - but I cannot scroll through the list.
When I select the folder and continue, I test the connection and get a message that it is fine.
Then I go on to actually import tables. The list that is presented of tables that I can import does not include all the dbf files in the folder. There are 207 files in the origin folder, but only a fraction (about 120) of those show up in the list as candidates to be imported. I cannot see a pattern to the ones that are excluded from the list.
Does anyone know what could be causing this strange behavior?
Thanks.

Greetings,
I am unsure if this is the correct forum to send this question, but I can't seem to find any information regarding this problem. If this is the wrong place, please direct me to the correct spot.
I am attempting to import data from a free tables FoxPro database to SQL 2000 using a DTS Package which has worked correctly every day for the past 2 years. Yesterday, I got an error.
The package has around 10 tables that it deletes, re-creates, and populates with data from the Foxpro. All of the tables except one work correctly.
When I try to do an explicit import using the ODBC connection to populate that one table, I get the following error: Context: Error calling Openrowset on the provider.
I created an access database on my local computer and setup an ODBC connection and link tables to the database to see if it would work, and it did. So I thought there might be something wrong with the ODBC data source on the SQL Server, so I deleted it and created a new one, used it and I receive the same error.
I thank you in advance for any assistance or direction you can provide me for finding an answer.

Having installed SP1, my SSIS packages using the OLE-DB Provider for Visual Foxpro no longer work. Using the latest version obtained from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=E1A87D8F-2D58-491F-A0FA-95A3289C5FD4&displaylang=en
When attempting to create one SSIS from scratch, the message thrown is:
"The parameter is incorrect. (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro)."
The radio button option of "Copy data from one or more tables or views" and then selecting the "Next >" throw the error.
It has to be the SP1 causing the problem because nothing else changed on the Server and everything was working fine prior to this.
Microsoft, any feedback on this??

I didn't want to maintain similar/identical tables in a legacy FoxPro system and another system with SQL Server back end. Both systems are active, but some tables are shared.
Initially I was going to use a Linked Server to the FoxPro to pull the FP data when needed. This works. But, I've come up with what I believe is a better solution. Keep in mind that these tables are largely static - occassional changes, edits.
I will do a 1 time DTS from FP into SQL Server tables.
I then create INSERT and UPDATE triggers within FoxPro.
These triggers fire a stored procedure in FoxPro that establishes a connection to the SQL Server and fire the appropriate stored procedure on SQL Server to CREATE and/or UPDATE the corresponding table there.
In the end - the tables are local to both apps.
If the UPDATES or TRIGGERS fail I write to an error log - and in that rare case - I can manually fix. I could set it up to email me from within FoxPro as well if needed.
Here's the FoxPro and SQL Server code for reference for the Record Insert:
FOXPRO employee.dbf InsertTrigger:
employee_insert_trigger(VAL(Employee.ep_pk),Employ ee.fname,Employee.lname,Employee.email,Employee.us er_login,Employee.phone)
FOXPRO corresponding Stored Procedure:
FUNCTION EMPLOYEE_INSERT_TRIGGER
PARAMETERS wepk,wefname,welname,weemail,WEUSERID,WEPHONE
nhandle=SQLCONNECT('SS_PDITHP3','userid','password ')
IF nhandle<0
m.errclose=.f.
IF !USED("errorlog")
USE tisdata!errorlog IN SELECT(1)
m.errclose=.t.
ENDIF
SELECT errorlog

Using the Import/Export Data Wizard, I'm trying to export a FoxPro 2.5 DOS (as dBase III) table of 15,000 records to SQL Server 2000. I keep getting this error message:
Insert Error, Column 32 ('PROG_START',DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP), Status 6: Data Overflow.
Invalid character value for cast specification.
I have SQL Server create the table each time I run the wizard. The new table allows NULLS in this column and I made sure to overwrite the empty date fields in the FoxPro table with blanks to make sure it would result in NULL. Originally SQL Server tried to put this as SMALL DATETIME, but when I got the message earlier, I changed it to DATETIME.
Any suggestions?

I have a SSIS package that reads data from a dump table, runs a custom script that takes date data and converts it to the correct format or nulls and formats amt fields to currency, then inserts it to a new table. The new table redirects insert errors. This process worked fine until about 3 weeks ago. I am processing just under 6 million rows, with 460,000 or so insert errors that did give error column and code.
Now, I am getting 1.5 million errors. and nothing has changed, to my knowledge. I receive the following information.
Error Code -1071607685 Error Column 0 Error Desc No status is available.
The only thing I can find for the above error code is
DTS_E_OLEDBDESTINATIONADAPTERSTATIC_UNAVAILABLE
To add to the confusion, I can not see any errors in the data written to the error table. It appears that after a certain point is reached in the processing, everything, or most records, error out.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

trying to install sql server2005 on a windows 2003 server box.
getting msg below at the sql server . i looked at other posts on trying to uninstall SQL Native Access Client and norton antivirus. i could never find the snac on the add - remove programs and this server does not have a virus protection program yet.
here's the history of the installs on the server:
wanted to test a 2005 upgrade so:
1) installed sql server 2000 then sp4 then restored some databases to it - all OK
2) tried to upgrade to sql 2005 but ran into problems and left it at that.
had a disk drive crash on the d drive so lost the installs but not the operating system
when the drive was replaced, left alone for a while
then wanted to test a straight 2005 install
1) removed the broken 2005 attempt
2) removed the 2000
3) installed 2005 and got the error on the subject line:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup
------------------------------
SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified Refer to server error logs and setup logs for more information. For details on how to view setup logs, see "How to View Setup Log Files" in SQL Server Books Online.
i've gone through as many of the forums that i can and have tried several things - like uninstalling 2005 and installing pieces and parts but but nothing seems to work.
Thanks!

Could not connect to the database, see error message below.
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
i am not sure yet if this is an issue with sql, php or phpbb
php is installed in iis and has all the modules installed which the php msi installer supported. i can run php code but in this case when i'm running the install.php file for the phphbb setup, i fill in the values for the database and got that error
phpbb detects all the required server settings and sees that i have ms sql installed
any suggestions on what that error means or how to go about configuring odbc driver?
probably a simple issue. but i'm still new with sql stuff
