Sep 26, 2006
Dear All,
i have a question abt winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE.
i am using VB.net of Visual Studio 2005
My platform is using a PDA with winCE 4.2 and SQL server CE. The Host program is using dbf files on desktop side.
I got a problem of how to sync / read the sql CE data from a windows application.
so, i wanna ask,
1. any method to access the data from winCE data by windows application? or can i convert the sdf file to windows readable files? or any others?
2. Can i use a MDB to sync with SQL server CE?
can i synchronize the mobile device which has a SQL Server CE database with the Access database on the desktop?
last question,
3. is that windows CE .net 4.2 not support pocket access (cdb) anymore?
please help me out

I want to create an application for home users which runs on their mobile device (smartphone) and their desktop PC and keeps the data synchronized between them. On their desktop I want to run either SSCE or SSExpress. There are so many options in the SSCE literature, which options should I use? How do I synchronize the data?
The literature has so many options I don't know where to start.

I have been able to use MS Sync Services to sync an MDF file & an SDF file (Works great! Very easy!).
What I would like to know is if I could sync an SDF file with another SDF file (making an SDF file a desktop DB and the other a Mobile DB)?
Thanks,

I have searched through this forum and the news group
microsoft.public.sqlserver.ce
for this topic. I only find a post from Darren Shaffer and I requested a document.
Unfortunately, there is not a clear example of how to create a mobile database (sdf) on a desktop machine which contains VS 2005 and SQL server 2005 by using Visual Basic 2005.
I am sure a clear example in VB for this problem would help a lot of people. Hence anybody who knows how to perform this task, Please help these people.
Thanks in advance

I want to physically move my .SDF file to my desktop and then access this file from VS 2005 VB.NET. Ideally, I would want to access this .SDF file from MS Access 2003 but I undersand this is not possible.
Here are my VS 2005 VB.NET statements....
Dim ConnPPC As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection("Data Source = C:Documents and SettingsG014436My DocumentsSQL
MobileActMgr6CE.sdf")
Dim mySqlDataAdapter2 As New SqlDataAdapter("select * from T0002_AE_Activity_Entry", ConnPPC)
mySqlDataAdapter2.Fill(myDataSet2)
On executing the last statement(fill)...I get the following error.
function failed: 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)
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi all, I'm new to mobile devices.
I have a desktop application that uses SQL Server Compact Edition. I will soon have a mobile application that will use the same database. How can I (at runtime of the desktop app, say when the user clicks a button) transfer the sdf file to the mobile device? I'm not necessarily interested in synchronizing the databases, simply overwriting the database on the mobile device with the one on the desktop would suffice.
Is something like this possible?
Thanks!

Hello,
VS 2005 & SQL server 2005
I developed a mobile application PDA using the Compact Framework 2.0. And using typed datasets
I have also developed a web service. When the PDA is connected to the Internet it can access the web service and get all the data that is in the sql database. The user can add new records, update existing records, and delete them. So the web service acts like a middle man.
In the PDA the data is filled using typed datasets.
However, the customer now wants to be able to interact with there data on the PDA, currently they have to be connected to the Internet. But if there is no internet connection, then they will still like to add, update, and delete the records. Then once they have a connection, all these would be updates with the sql database.
What is the most efficient method to do this.
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Steve

Hey guys,
So I started an SQL CE database for use inside a mobile application. I used SSMS to create a .sdf file (because if I let Visual Studio do it, SSMS can't open it because it will be version 3.5).
The reason I wanted to use SSMS is because I wanted to be able to design the database in design view, and populate it with initial information for the application to use. That means adding tables and rows.
The problem is, SSMS doesn't seem to have a design view available when working with CE databases. It also doesn't seem to have a feature for adding rows into tables. It's essentially as useless as VS2008 for designing my mobile database. It only lets me add tables, and I can't even do that visually in design view. I have to use those cumbersome forms.
Is there any way to design a CE database in design view? And add rows of data into tables? It feels like I'm overlooking something.
Note: I dont need to subscribe or publish the database. The mobile application just needs to use the database as a repository.

Hi, Guys
I read a lot of your post about the mobile device connecting SQL Server. I try to solve my problem, but i still in trouble of Mobile database application.
The following is my development enviroment
Visual Studio .net 2005
Sql Server 2005
Windows CE.Net 4.2
Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2
First i can run some simple application on the Mobile Device( Symbol MC9060G Mobile Device), all the connection between develop PC and Mobile Device is fine. All the develop SDK for the Mobile device without problem.
Secont, i can develop a simple normal windows database application, work fine, can get data from SQL Server 2005. the connection to database server is fine.
I used VS2005 develop a simple database with DataGrid on the form( all the code generated by the VS 2005), when run the program, got error at " int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable)"
error "PlatformNotSupportedException". I don't know what's going on.
I think the connection to the database no problem. Maybe the Mobile device has problem. I insatlled sql.ppc.wce4.armv4.cab file to mobile device.
Can someone help me out?
Thanks.

Hi,
I am using web service to synchronize data between SQL Server 2005 on a desktop and a SQL Server Mobile Edition on a mobile device.
Initially, when i added the data source to my mobile application, my .sdf only has 3 records. I am then supposed to retrieve 97 more records from the desktop server when my mobile application runs. After performing merging, I clicked (on my device emulator) on the .sdf deployed under my mobile application and the query analyzer showed all 100 records.
Does this mean my mobile database has been successfully updated with all 100 records? If not, how do I check that? The reason why I am asking this is that the file size of this .sdf with 100 records is still the same as the initial .sdf with only 3 records. How is this possible?
Am I missing anything or getting some concepts wrong? Please enlighten. Thanks.

Hi,
Please provide some help regarding the "Interface Defining Error: IID_IDBDataSourceAdmin" error while trying to create a SDF database using Query Analyzer on a Windows CE 5.0 mobile device (Symbol MC3000).
Error: 0x80004005 E_FAIL

sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.CAB
PS.
Basically I have developed a mobile application that programmatically creates the database, the code worked on a similar device (Win CE 50), trying to run the application on a new device resulted in database creation errors. I tried creating a test database manually .. and this is what I got.
Browsing MSDN or searching on the Forum did not help.

Long story short -
Have two C# applications - one WinForms desktop app, the other a WinForms smart device app. Both use SQL Server Compact CE 3.5 to store data locally. Both work just fine.
Now the desktop app needs to open and update the .SDF file that is stored on the Windows Mobile device. (Device will be docked via USB.)
What format would the path to the .SDF look like that the WinForms application would need to specify in order to open it?
Thanks for reading.

The sample application provided with Access Database Synchronizer fires a "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT." exception on my WinCE 4.2 device.
I debugged it with VS2005 to see what was going on and found that the problem resides in the line:
m_connDesktop.Pull("MSysObjects","SELECT Name FROM MSysObjects WHERE Type=1 and flags=0",accessSysConnectString,RDATrackOption.TrackingOff,"Err_MSysObjects");
It seems that connection m_connDesktop is ok but calling Pull method fails.
I've verified that SSEvAccessSync service is started when ActiveSync detects device connection and that firewall rules are correctly updated.
Also, i verified my System.mdw and i discovered that there is no "MSysObjects" table (only MSysGroupList, MSysGroupMembers, MSysUserList and MSysUserMemberships queries are there).
Do you think the problem is there?
How can i solve it without damaging System.mdw?
I cannot figure out what's the purpose of this line of code, can you help me?

Hello!
I don't know if this question belong to sql forum or smart device forum.
So far i was able to sync data between pda and the sql server pc, over a wi-fi LAN using Remote Data Access.
Now i want to do the same but without using the wifi LAN, i mean, i want to be able to over a gprs connection, do the same data synchronization.
My main question is how to get access to the sql server database ? My connection string (obviously) only works in LAN.
My doubt is how can i access my sql server database data ?
I need some help over here, i really don't know how can i overcome my current problem.
Thank you

hello all,
I am using vb.net in windows form. I have made a module which is connected to sql server 2000.
Now, I want to have a fresh copy of the remote database of SQL Server at my local computer and whenever there is change in remote database(insertions,deletion or updation), my local database copy may gets synchronized(i.e changes get reflected in this local copy).
Can any one help me? If it is possibel by using Vb.net code, it is very well, and if there is some Sql Server wizard that can help me do that, please reply to me.
Thanks in advance.

I have a Fujitsu-Siemens LOOX 520 running WM 5 version 5.1.70 on which I am trying to create a Server 2005 Mobile database.
I have installed the following files on the Pocket PC after a hard reset to make sure the unit was in its vanilla state:
NETCFv2.wm.armv4i.cab
sqlce30.dev.ENU.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB
sqlce30.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB
sqlce30.repl.ppc.wce5.armv4i.CAB
All the files appeared to succesfully install. Connecting to the device in VS2005 works with no problems. Creating a small test app in VB.NET and running it on the device works no problems, so the device is satisfactorily connected to VS2005.
My problem is this:
When I try to create an SQL Server 2005 Mobile database on the device using Add Connection under the Data Sources window in Visual Studio 2005 Professional (RTM version), I get the following 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."
Trying the same thing in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio gives the same error, but a little bit of extra information:
"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)"
As far as I can see, everything IS installed OK, so why is VS2005 not working?
Thanks for any help.

We have setup a 32-bit IIS server on a 32-bit machine. Installed necessary SQL Server components (32-bit replication components). We have installed SQL Server 2005 64-bit SP1 with latest hotfixes on a 64-bit machine.
On the Mobile device we installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile.
When we start mergereplication the problem we have is error 28009 (An instance of the SQL Server Reconciler cannot be created) on the mobile device. I read allot about it, but still have a questetion.
Should this work?
I found the doc: SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Technical Resource Guide:
Note: If your upgrade involves SQL Server CE subscribers, you must perform additional actions on the IIS server. You will need to install SQL Server 2005 client connectivity components along with SQL Server Mobile Edition components on the IIS server. You will also have to replace sqlcesa30.dlll, sqlcerp30.dll, and all the replication components on the IIS server.
From this I conclude it should work or is the doc in error?
If it does not, what can we do?
32-bit SQL Server 2005 on the 64-bit machine should work. (Can a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 run alongside 32-bit SQL Server 2005?).
Beste regards,
Hans Mank

I have set up a locahost site in IIS using the "Configure Web Synchronization Wizard". One of the first test I was asked to do was to open a broweser and browse to http://localhost/MobileTest/sqlcesa30.dll
If all is well I should get a web page with the following line:
SQL Server Mobile Server Agent 3.0
But unfortunately I get an error stating :
"The server has encountered an error while loading an application during the processing of your request. Please refer to the event log for more detail information. Please contact the server administrator for assistance."
I checekd the Event log and found this error related the IIS launch process on my machine.
DCOM got error "Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. " and was unable to logon .IWAM_Rataq in order to run the server:
where Rataq is the name of my machine. Could my IWAM_Rataq account be corrupted, my other sites on the machine work.
Infact if i put in a Test.htm page in the virtual directory MobileTest I am able to browse to the page.
Can the Account be re-set? is there another problem that I am not aware of. I have Norton Internet 2006 running could that be the reason? Could Norton be blocking the dll from loading? But the event log states it is a Account error.
Any ideas why this might occur? any help is always appreciated
