Problem Reaching Sqlserver2000 Database With Asp.net 2.0 Application When Deploying
Jun 12, 2007
I have developped an ASP.NET 2.0 webb application localy on my workstation and have the MSSQL2000 database on a
server.There has been no problem accessing the database during development.
Im now finnished and put the application on a web server.
No when i try to access the application i get the following problem as it tries to reach the database:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the
fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
I still use the same database so remote connections are allowed and there are lot of application against that sqlserver already running.
I have anonumouse access and use a domain service account for the application and that very same account is added
as a login to the sqlserver and a domainuser in the database.
I have Forms authentication in my web.config file.
SQL Database in my application with windows authentication rejects accessing after deploying and remote access 1- My web applications databese access is windows authentication 2- In developing area there is no problem for accessing database 3- After deploying to another server there is problem accessing database: Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'BRCK231ASPNET'. How can I solve this problem? Thanks.
I have SQL Server 2000 (SP4) running on an Windows 2003 SP 1 server. I have started to get the error message "Connection to application object failed - Ensure no program modules have been deleted" when I go into Enterprise Manager.
I have tried reinstalled SQL Server and applied SP4 but to no effect. Can anyone help?

I have a small ASP.Net application developed in VS 2005 that I would like to deploy with SQL Express.
I have included the MDF file in the Application and added SQL Express as a pre-requisite for the Setup and Deployment project.
It installs SQL Express but when it tries to connect I receive: "This is not a valid login Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM'."
I don't seem to have any options using the "prerequisite options in VS 2005 in terms of command line deployment parameters.
Likewise I would prefer to attach the database to the instance (because I need to write a connection string from a PDA using RDA and I have zero clue how to do RDA directly back to the file).
iam having vs2005 installed on my machine and i also installed sqlserver2005 dev edition on my machine...Now iam devloping a Window Appplication in which I need to populate a grid from Sqlserver2000 (dev edition) which installed on remote (i.e another network)....when i try to run my application it gives me a error tht "Unable to connect to sqlserver2005".actaully i specified in my connection string to connect to Sqlserver2000 on the remote machine.
I feel to know how to enable remote connection on Sqlserver 2000.So tht i can access this sqlserver2000 from another machine
I create a small aplication to lookup postal codes, it uses only some basic queries. It's a Winforms (using Visual Studio 2008) application, as MS put as local datase SQL Server Compact 3.5, I use it.
The application works fine it has only tree tables (with the postal codes of USA, Canada and Mexico) using the SQL Server Compact 3.5 database file.
I create a setup project and made and installer, in this case I follow the indications from MS to copy to the application folder alld the SQL Server dll files needed.
In Windows XP, the aplication works fine after installation. But in Windows Vista not. I found that as the installer put all files unde C:Programa filesMy CompanyPostal Codes folder, the application need's administrator permission to run.
I don't know how to change the database file to another location in order to avoid this problem.
Do you know how to avoid this? Maybe using a different path for my database file (if this can you tell me how to make the connection string to works properly) Or making the app to requires the administrator permission (I know tha in VS 2008 this can be done, biy not idea of how?
i have recently started to work with the analysis services and i am having some problems.
i have made a web application that for now just tries to connect to an analysis server.
The server is installed on an xp sp 2 system.
for testing, i used my local computer, which is running also win xp sp2. After deploying, the application can connect to the AS server on the other machine. the problem occurs when i try to deploy the applicatuion on the production server, which is running win 2k3 server on 32 bit. When deploying, i use the same connection string, so it should try to connect to the AS server installed on a win xp sp2 system.
The first thing that came to my mind was to check the MDAC versions, be cause of the message: "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed."
on my computer, where the application worked ok, the version is MDAC 2.8 SP 1 Windows XP SP 2
on the win2k3 server, the MDAC version is : MDAC 2.8 SP2.... i thought it was the version of the service pack, so o searched for the update of MDAC 2.8 SP1, trying to install mdac 2.8 sp2 to see if i was to see the same error, but i found that mdac 2.8 sp2 is only for win2k3 server, and for win xp is mdac 2.8 sp1, according to this link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/884103
Now i got confused and have no clues how to make this work...

Hi Everybody, I have made one simple application in asp.net 2.0 using VS 2005. I got following error Server Error in '/[applicationname]' Application. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) - When i got on my local machine i solved it by deleting sqlexpress directory from user's account and it was due to that I have installed VS 2005 on machine and by default it installs sql express with it. - But I could not solved this error on my Development Server wherein there is no VS 2005. Only .Net framework 2.0 & 1.1 are there. My all other applications are running well. So if any one have idea regarding the solution for this error then please reply me soon. It is very urgent.
what is the easiest way to deploy a database for a webapp? i have create table scripts but waht is the easiest way to go about inserting data into lookup tables? would i have to write insert statements or is there some other way to do it
I used VWD 2005 Express to create my web application (that uses a sql 2005 database), and now I'm trying to deploy it. I was to understand that all I had to do was to upload all my files to the root folder and the web host's server (webhost4life.com). However, they require me to upload the sql 2005 db to a seperate sql server using a control panel that is very clunky. Does anyone know how to upload the sql 2005 db to the host server or an online tutorial where I could go to learn? Thanks for the help!
Hi, We are using SQL-Server (2005) for the first time and have developed an app that uses 2 dozen tables and a bunch of SP, triggers, etc. How do we get our entities to our client site without a lot of copying and pasting? How about the data we want to upload for lookup tables - how would we get the data there? Moreover, how do we sync stored procedures with the live database as we make changes during development? Thanks, Mark
I have developed a VS2008 .net application using Sql Server express 2005. Running this on my development machine works fine but after i deploy to a client machine i get:
Cannot open user default database. Login Failed for user 'mycomputernameadministrator'
The client machine has sqlserver express 2005 installed using all instllation defaults
My connection string is:
Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=c:mydatamyfile.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=False"
I want to be able to deploy my app to any client PC without any database user login (i use my own built in to app) or errors obvoiusly
Could someone give me a step by step to resolve, much appreciated
Database project “BaseDatabaseProject” has a single table called “BaseTable.”Database projected “DerivedDatabaseProject” has a single tabled called “DerivedTable” and has a database referenced to “BaseDatabaseProject” where the location is set to “Same database.”Using SSDT for Visual Studio 2012, I right click on DerivedDatabaseProject and select publish. I set the connection to my localhost database and give the database a new name that does not currently exist. If I click the generate script button, I see a script that first adds BaseTable and then adds DerivedTable. When I push databse, my local instance now contains a new database with both tables.
This is not the same result as I have experienced with SQLPackage.exe from SQL Server Data-Tier Application Framework (July 2013). I have been trying to deploy using the SQLPackage and have found that when I do so, it only adds the DerivedTable. Any elements from the BaseDatabaseProject are being omitted. This is evident if I generate a script (the two scripts are otherwise identical aside from the missing part from BaseDatabaseProject) or if I try to publish.The syntax I have been using for SQLPackage.exe is
hi,I was redirect to this URL* based on Deploying a SQL Database to a Remote Hosting Environment,pertaining to my question on how do I convert MDF file to .SQL.I had downloaded and installed the program recommended that is Database Publishing Wizard.but the problem is now, there isn't any context menu "Publish to Provider" * when i right click on thedatabase aspnetdb.mdf..please advice me. thanks.* Reference : http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2006/12/22/recipe-deploying-a-sql-database-to-a-remote-hosting-environment-part-1.aspx
I have a website that uses an SQL 2005 Express database, with the added aspnet_users, aspnet_roles tables etc' inside it. (That is not an .mdf file, but in the databse itself)
Are there any guidelines for moving this kind of database to the deployment server, which also has SQL Express ?
hi, i hope this is the correct forum?i have developed a small asp.net 2.0 web site with vwd using sqlExpress which appears to just bean data file and a log file in my app_data directory. there are two databases, the users one that is created by the login manager and my own that i created to store data. this all works fine on my laptop. i have an xp-pro machine setup with IIS and the frontpage web extentions, i have also installed the .net framework v2.0 on it and done all the windows updates. i have given app_data read/write access for the aspnet and network service users.i used the copy site feature of vwd to install on the xp box and although the site seems to workwhen it needs to bind a gridview to my sqldatasource it gives an error Cannot open user default database. login failed.Loginfailed for user 'rlxpaspnet'Any ideas? i have googled and tried all sorts, but to no avail, so i throw my self on your mercy!Cheers,russ
Hi there. I've created a windows forms app that connects to a sql server express database. now that it's working on my box, i need to install the entire solution on the end user's machine. what's the best way to move the database? I found this article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165716.aspx but i'm wondering if anyone can give me some insights based on your own experience. I'm using ms visual studio 2005 and sql server express 2005. I'm hoping that all i'll really have to do is copy everything over to the new machine and then edit my connection string in the .exe.config file for my app.
I've written a ClickOnce app that deploys a Sql Server Express data file (.mdf) and log file (.ldf) along with the other application files. SQL Express SP2 is a prerequisite for this app. After the applicaiton installs and starts up it copies these files to a specific folder and attaches them by calling the AttachDatabase() method of a Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server object.
This method works fine using Windows XP, however when I run it on Windows Vista I get the following exception:
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.FailedOperationException: Attach database failed for Server 'localhostSQLEXPRESS'. ---> Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ExecutionFailureException: An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Unable to open the physical file "C:WashMasterDatabasewasshmaster.mdf". Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)".
This exception occurs when I try to programmatically attach the database.
I've searched through the MSDN forums for a solution and I've only found two suggestions:
1.) Create all database connections using a User Instance. 2.) Create the database (using SQL) in the target folder, rather than copying it over from the deployment folder.
I don't like the idea of using User Instances because my entire data access layer is currently written using Ole and I would rather not rewrite it if I don't have to. I cannot find any way to use User Instances with Ole.
I also don't like the idea of creating the database using SQL because it is fairly large.
Here are my questions:
1.) Can User Instances be used with Ole?
2.) Can I somehow programmatically set the permissions of the copied data and log files so that SQL Express can access them without error?
3.) Is there a better method for doing what I'm trying to do or am I destined to have to either rewrite in data access layer so I can use User Instances or create my large database rather than copy it to the target directory?
I have a web app that uses two SQL Express databases. One of the databases is the membership database. I am deploying the app to a hosted environment. Here is my connection string:
Could not open new database 'Akamojo_ASPNETDB'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. Cannot attach the file 'e:hostingmemberakamojoTournamentLogApp_DataAkamojo_ASPNETDB.mdf' as database 'Akamojo_ASPNETDB'. File activation failure. The physical file name "c:inetpubwwwrootTournamentLogApp_DataAkamojo_ASPNETDB_log.LDF" may be incorrect. The log cannot be rebuilt when the primary file is read-only.
The mdf file is not read only. In the hosted environment the database is on the E drive. In my dev environment the database is on the C drive. From the error message, it appears that when it tries to build the log file it is trying to build it on the C drive in a path that doesn't exist in the hosted environment.
Hello, I would like to deploy a per-machine Express database as part of my VS2005 C# desktop application. The deployment must work with both XP and Vista from the same setup files. I'm not using One-Click installation. I don't want my users to have to configure Express with the Surface Area Configuration tool.
Since the database cannot go in C:Program Files because of Vista ACL issues, I am using COMMONAPPDATACompanyNameAppName as the install path for the database and other user writable application files. In XP this expands to C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataCompanyNameAppName and in Vista it is C:ProgramDataCompanyNameAppName. Neither of these paths have write privileges for unprivileged users, so the install program needs to change the write permissions at install time. Right now I am using SetACL ( http://setacl.sourceforge.net/ ), to do that and the install goes fine with write permissions on the companyName folder and it's children for all users.
But I can't connect to the mdf file in my COMMONAPPDATACompanyNameAppName folder. If I am the administrator/installer it works fine, but as an unprivileged user I get different errors, but mostly "Could not login user ...". For debugging, I have also tried installing the database in the "AppFolder" directory (which for my app in both Vista and XP is C:Program FilesCompanyNameAppName) and using "User Instance=true" in the connection string, and the connection is made but (at least on XP) the unprivileged user cannot write to the database because the folder lacks write privileges for that user.
I suppose one thing I could do would be to change the folder/file permissions in the AppFolder, but I am reluctant to do that because I have read that Microsoft does not guarantee that the "Compatibility" feature in Vista for the Program Files directory will be available in future releases/service packs.
So is there a way to do a simple installation/db connection for a per-machine database located in a COMMONAPPDATA path?
I am developing a application where the database needs to be deployed from the central database server which is sql server 2005, and we have only few fields and few new tables which need to be deployed into pocket pc using sql mobile from sql server 2005. We would like to design the database in sql server 2005 for mobile, which will be only structure and will be deployed into PDA using web service.
Hi, I have a little question regarding SQLServer2000 vs ADO of Visual Basic 6
In a code snipplet a have something like:
Conn1.BeginTrans
Set rec_tmp = Conn1.Execute("SELECT * FROM IDENTIFICATIONS;")
Conn1.Execute "DELETE FROM CARS WHERE CAR_ID = 8;" . . . Conn1.CommitTrans
and whe VB tries to execute the line with the DELETE sentence the Err object says something like: "cannot create a new connection because you are in distributed or manual transaction mode"
However, if I remove the line that executes the sentence SELECT * FROM IDENTIFICATIONS the error never shows up. Seems like I cant execute a SELECT before a DELETE/UPDATE even if I execute the SELECT in some other table. Ive tried changing the IsolationLevel, Mode and Cursor Location properties and the error always occurs. Furthermore, I tried putting the SELECT out of the transaction and the error continues showing up.
Why does this occurs? Is there a way to solve it?
NOTE: I need forcely to execute that SELECT before the DELETE.

Okay, I've read massive topics on ClickOnce, and embedded database applications, etc, etc.
I need a handful of good suggestions how I can create a deployment package, to get my sql express database onto a SQL Express server.
The database will need to be multi-user, because I am also developing a WinForms application to connect to the SQL Express database.
I'm thinking I need to use some automated scripting features, to generate scripts for the database once I am done (unless you have a better suggestion).
After that, I need to know what to do with those scripts, and how can I create a setup / deployment packages to run those scripts against a SQL Express server.
The other alterntative obviously is to copy my sql express database, and run an attach command. This will work the first time, only because this will have been the first deployment of this database.
Please keep in mind when answering this question, that I will not be embedding the database, and as far as I understand ClickOnce is a feature for use with embedded databases or user instance databases (not sure).
Hai All , Iam having the one Application in DotNet2005.But iam using the two database(SqlServer2005).If user's login the application it will check credentials in first database, if he is not having the login credentials it will cheek the second Database. How can I handle in the configuration file?. How can I change the connection string depending upon the Database in my application for database operation (like insert and update).Any one kindly provide the solution.Thanks and regards,sureshK
