How Do Add A DB Connection To A Table In SQL Server Express Using Visual Web Developer?
Mar 22, 2007I'm developing using Visual Web Developer and want to have a web page that shows the contents of a table. I get the error message when testing the connection through database explorer "Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection".
The database is located on a server running IIS and has SQL Server Express installed.

Making SQL 2005 Developer Accept The Connection String For SQL Express Edition
Feb 18, 2007Hi, I have installed on my laptop SQL server 2005 Developer edition, I can change ANY of the settings of the SQL server and OS.
I am writing code with a team using continuous integration where the connection string is the following:
"Provider=SQLNCLI;Server=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=Secret;Trusted_Connection=Yes;"
is there a way (create an alias,rename server, other?) to make my local dev SQL server accept the connection string above, as at the moment I have to rename the connection string every time before checking in code and after downloading the latest version from the code repository.
any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated
Thanks

Getting Up And Running With Visual SQL Server 2005 Express And Visual Web Developer 2005 Express
Apr 11, 2006I've downloaded and installed both of these (VWD installs both) and have been trying to run through the walkthrough of setting up a web application which supports membership. However, no matter what I do I invariably get errors like the following:
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) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I'm concerned why VWD and VSQL express versions don't run correctly out of the box (so to speak). I'm not an expert on configuring these services -- but that's the point of offering these tools to hobbyists: So we can learn about how to make some of these great applications using MS tools.
My configuration::
Windows XP SP2 -- clean machine as of about a month ago, never had any dev tools, web servers, or the like on it.
IIS is installed and the service says its running
VSQL and VWD express versions installed (no errors on installation)
SQL server service indicates it is running
.Net 2.0 framework installed (no errors on installation)
Note: I've tried installing on two separate machines. Obviously I'm missing something fundamental.
Would someone please help me go through the million things I [apparently] need to do to configure all these tools so I can get on to actually coding up my first web application? If this is documented somewhere, all I can say is I tried to find it but it certainly wasn't obvious.
SQL Server Management Studio Express, Database Explorer In Visual Web Developer Express...which To Use???
Apr 16, 2007When I downloaded/started using Visual Web Developer I was under the impression that I needed to install SQL Server Management Studio Express in order to create/manage databases, and to provide the engine to access the data.
Since then I have found tutorials and have successfully created/used databases solely from within Visual Web Developer. I'm assuming that Visual Web Developer includes a database engine, much like the webserver that is included. (This is an awesome thing).
When I tried to upload my web application with database to my production server, the database would not work, it started working after I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express on the server.
Is it my understanding that you need SQL Server Management Studio Express if you do not have Visual Web Developer Express installed in order to provide the data access engine?
Also, I am unable to "attach" my Visual Web Developer Express created database to SQL Server Management Studio Express. Are there any posts that provide more information about this topic?
The only reason I'm asking is that I have extra whitespace on the end of my text fields, and I thought ANSI_PADDING was turned on. I do not see the option in Visual Web Developer Express, but have found it in SQL Server Management Studio Express.

Using SQL Express With Visual Web Developer
Apr 12, 2007Hi, Can I use Sql Express Edition with Visual Web Developer at the same time? I tried but I always get a permission error. Also, when I try to attach a database (that I created in Visual Web Developer) to the SQL Express i cant find the .mdf file, I don't know why? Is there is a way where I can specify a folder where I can keep the mdf and allow both applications to access it?

Mar 17, 2006When attempting to use VWD Express' built-in web server I recieve the following error in browser window:

Using VWD Database Explorer I have connected to my SQL Server 2005 Express databases and the Test Connection button on the Modify Connection form reports the connection strings are good. Lastly SQL connection string property field User Instance = True and neither database resides in "My Documents" folder.
Questions:
Does VWD local web server require configuration?
Is this a Named Pipe or TCP/IP configuration problem? Should Shared Memory be disabled?
Should I give up on VWD local webserver and install IIS instead?
Visual Web Developer 2005 Express -- With SQL Server Developer 2005?
May 4, 2006Can someone here confirm or deny that Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition doesn't work with SQL Server Developer Edition 2005?
I
was about to order SQL Server Developer Edition 2005 on Amazon, to use
with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, when I read a user comment that
the two are incompatible with each other. Does anyone know for sure if
that is true?
What I'm wanting to do is develop an ASP.NET web
application on a web host using a SQL Server database. I use VS2003 and SQL
Server Enterprise 2000 at work, but I'd like to learn the 2005 editions
for this side project. I don't own any of the developer tools/IDEs
personally, so I'm trying to find the most affordable way to do this
for my home business.
Thanks for any advice,

Import SQL Server Express Database Into Visual Web Developer
Dec 16, 2006I can access an SQL Server 2005 database from VWD, but for ease of uploading to a server and to maintain the database within just VWD environment would like to import it directly into VWD and its App_Data folder from the local machine SQL Server.
I guess this is more than copy and paste ('especially since this is not allowed becase the database is being used by another program').
I've seen posts about the reverse process but not this way. Any simple pointers please?

Does Visual Web Developer Express Edition Works With Ms 2000 Database Service?
Jul 5, 2007I have made my website using SQL Server Express edition. It is totally database driven and manypages use databases to display data. My problem is that after paying for webhosting fees my web host told me that they do not support SQL Server express edition. Instead they have support for MySQL and Ms Access. Except that there is this MS 2000 Database service for an additional cost. Any recommendations what I should do except changing the host? If I pay for MS 2000 Database servicem, will my website work? My user management(i.e ASPNETDB database) was created by Visual Web developer and I don't want to do user management myself. Any advice?

Trouble Installing Reporting Add-In For Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005 Express
Jul 25, 2007Hi Folks
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.
Any ideas, please?
Thanks

Problem Installing SQL 2005 Developer + Express And Visual Studio 2008
Jan 16, 2008I installed both SQL 2005 developer and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit.
In every version "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" was missing. I uninstalled and reinstalled both version but always "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" was not available and the computer could not find devenv.exe file.
I installed visual studio 2008 as well. For some reason the start menu link for "SQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio" is ""C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEdevenv.exe"" and devenv.exe is not there or anywhere
Pleas advise.

Can I Use SQL Server 2005 Developer With Visual Web Developer?
Nov 24, 2007There are conflicting postings everywhere about this. I built a small site using VWD and SQL Server Express, but need to convert to Sql Server 2005 Developer because the DB will exceed 4Gb. Tried to install and could not connect or use from VWD. Tried to uninstall, got into large mess with the byzantine uninstall process, and have now started with a clean machine.
I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer first, then installed VWD Express 2008 without installing SQL Server Express. VWD won't let me connect to an existing database, won't let me add a new database and doesn't even show the Database Tools option under the Tools menu.
Is there someone with specific knowledge that can provide any enlightenment? Would be much appreciated.
Help With Connection String After Clickonce Install From Visual Studio 2005
Apr 7, 2008I have a sql express .mdf that is located in c:appdirectorymydb.mdf whilst developing an application. During development my connection string uses the above path to connect to the db. e.g.
"server = .sqlexpress; Integrated Security=True; database=C:appdirectorymydb.mdf"
I have published the app using click once in visual studio.net which places the db in : C:Documents and Settingsuser.nameLocal SettingsApps2.0DataJN1WL1DJ.X7B ... 08ed2810aab2abData
When i am executing the application following a clickonce install, what should I use in my connection string for the path to the db ? or where can I find the above path (e.g. in the registry) so that I can provide it to the connection string ?
Alternatively, can I specify where the DB is going to be installed (via click once). e.g. in my app directory under program files ?
I have tried searching what seems like everywhere for a solution to this problem and as a last resort thought it worth posting the question.
Many thanks in advance.

(3) How to use SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition instance on visual studio 2008?
Started With Express, But Installed Developer And Don't See Developer Instance...
Jun 19, 2006I can't tell if the SQL Developer install upgraded the service, but left the SqlExpress version information, or if I'm still really only using SqlExpress.
Also, my intended target is SQL Enterprise, so if I am using SQL Express am I asking for trouble when I go to move the database over? Are the database formats compatible?
I've poked around trying to search for this answer for a while and haven't turned anything up. Maybe I'm searching on the wrong terms...
Thanks,

con.connectionstring = "Driver={SQL Server};Server=Factory;Database=Production;UID = dbUser PWD=Pass;"
con.open
I'm getting an error : The user is not associated with a Trusted SQL Server Connection
How can i resolve this problem,
please suggest some remedy...

Sql Express Connection String
Nov 9, 2006Hai,
We created one application, with deployment. When we install the
application on another machine, it will attach a database in sqlexpress
instance. For eg. c:Programfilesoursoftwarenamekmsdb.mdf.
Now i am having one more webservice running on that machine as
dll(not webservice source code). In this web service i am reading that
database values. But the connection string is giving some error
message.
actually my coding is
sCon = "Server = ./SqlExpress;Database =KMSDB;Integrated Security =
SSPI;"
gsCon = New SqlClient.SqlConnection(sCon)
If gsCon.State = ConnectionState.Closed Then
gsCon.Open()
End If
sQuery = "SELECT KeyCode 'Key Code',Status
'Status',UserCode 'User Code',JobCode 'JobCode' " & _
" FROM KeyHolders"
oDaKeyHolders = New SqlClient.SqlDataAdapter(sQuery, gsCon)
oDaKeyHolders.Fill(oDsKeyHolders)
For this I am getting the error is
"Cannot open database "KmsDb" requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user 'DESIGN-EMB2user'."
