I would like some clarification regarding the specifications of SQL Server Compact Edition 2005 :
1)Is it required that .NET be installed in teh clinet for redistribution?
2)Will the database work even with the client not having any server (with IIS) to interact with ?
3)Does the database runs on 64 bit systems with the same binaries provided for 32 bit?
Thanks in advance
HelloWe are upgrading our DB server to a new machine and there is a heateddebate about what spec machine to use.We have on this server a 15 GB DB that handled around 2-3 milliontransactions / day, 50% updates and 50& reads roughly, the main goalsince it is used by an interactive end user application is speed forupdates and reads, it does not need to do any heavy calculations atall during daytime, at nighttime it does a lot of batch jobs, goingthrough the data and inserting results into different tables.the main questions I have is:Single or Dual CPUAMD 64 or Intel CPU2 or 4 GB of RAMDIsk Setup for max I/O, we are thinking, mirror for the OS, mirror forthe DB logs and RAID 5 for the DB data, using 2 different RAIDcontrollers to try and maximize disk I/O, keeping the logs and OS onone controller and DB data on the second controller.is there anything I need to watch out for? or something to pay moreattention to than other things?ANy advice would be greatly appreciatedrgdsMatt
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have a SQL server 2000 database running in Windows Server 2000. The database only consists of a handful of tables and is taking multiple inserts from @40 client PCs.
The server exists on two servers with half the clients talking to each. The databases use transactional replication to stay synchronised.
Each PC generates about 100 SQL transactions per busy hour, each being an insert.
The customer is expanding the number of client PCs from 40, through 300 to, ultimately, about 3000. They are asking me what hardware spec is required and want to be told it in a “for each additional 50 client applications you need XYZ” type of format to allow for gradual growth.
I have to say I am unsure how to go about scaling and configuring the servers!
So, is there such a thing as an automatic ‘configurator’ which automatically produces a required spec for a given number of transactions and clients? Are there other criteria they/I need to take into account such as number of logins etc? For archiving I am guessing that a CD/RW drive is the way to go?
Also, in terms of design between the two servers they have. With clustering, mirroring, replication etc I am unsure as to which is most appropriate.
The thing I do know is that they are willing to spend serious $$$ for the right design and need 99.9% up time.
They also pull significant amount of reports which I think logically equates to a third server to keep this traffic away from the live database. So, is replication the best way to go? Say replication every 15 minutes to a reports server?
I am also of the opinion that they need to move from Windows 2000 Server to Advanced Server for added scalability but will pursue that elsewhere.
Any input MUCH appreciated.
Out of my depth! :confused:

Hi,
I want to write query to implement paging in sql server ce 3.0. But it seems it does not support TOP or LIMIT keyword.
Can someone suggest alternative way to write a custom paging query in sql server ce 3.0.

Hi Guys!
I want to buy a laptop, so that I can install and play with the trial SS 2005 Enterprise Edition and hopefully get familiar with SSIS. At work I have only used SS 2000. I want a laptop which will run this with a reasonable speed, but don't want to pay for more juice than is actually required. Does anyone have any advice on what kind of spec would be good enough for SS 2005 Enterprise? If I go for the basics suggested by the system requirements, will it run like a tortoise?
Thanks!!

Hi
We are checking VB 9 (Orcas).
we connected to database created under with sql server 7. with this code
Public cn As New ADODB.Connection
Public Sub OpenDB()
cn.Open("Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial catalog=Reservation;Data Source=.")
End Sub
this code worked well.
we know sql7 is not compatiable with vista. please tell us how to connect it wiith sql2005 . we downloaded orcas express edition beta. we created a database also. please let u know how to connect with Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 (.NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5).

Hello,
we've got a SQL Server 2005 which replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.5. Every 10 to 20 synchronisations we're getting the error mentioned above. A Soft reset of the device helps to make the synchronization working again.
Why is this error happening and how can we resolve this?
BTW, we've also running system that replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.0 without having this problems.
Thanks,

Hello all-
I have a specification table that has some attributes defined.
SpecId - Id of the specification
Attribute - Attribute of the spec. (Like Color, HP etc)
Value - Is the value of the attribute
Then I have a car table that actually has information about the cars. Intention is to take each specification and match the cars that match the specification. If the car has more attributes than the spec, we ignore the extra attributes for the match. But if the car has less attributes, we don't even consider the car as a match (even if the attributes present, match). To summarize, the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes.
The code I have below is bad because I am joining the same tables twice. In addition, it fails in the condition "the car's attributes should be >= spec's attributes"
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
I'm trying to run a query on a SQL Server 2005 table which has a WHERE clause that requires a query from my SQL Compact table.
SELECT * from RemoteDB.TESTDB.dbo.Objects
WHERE Last_Updated > '2008-05-21 10:51:00'
AND Object_PARENT IN (select Object_CODE from LocalDB.PDADB.dbo.Objects)
Basicallly on a linked system, this query would find all new objects in my main database where the same objects exist in my local database. This would work just perfectly, no problems.
Now, the local database is actually on a PDA running SQL Server Compact Edition. There is currently no support for creating a linked environment. I have the option of pulling the table off the local db and pushing it to the remote db and then running the above query from within the single db and then retrieving the list of new entries and pulling them down to the local db but that is a HUGE amount of bandwidth, even if I just used the single primary key column.
Would anyone maybe have a little advice for me on how I could possibly achieve the above result on SQL Server Compact please?
Thanks in advance
Can anyone tell me how to format a field to spec?
Example:
Select num_field from table = 12345
I want
Select Format(num_field,"0000000000") from table = 0000012345
or some equivalent. I know in Access you could do this using the Format function, but I cannot seem to find anything like this in SQL.
Thanks in advance,

so i want to create a cmoputed column specification based on an 'if' condition. this is what I want to happen:
if [WID] < 10, I want the value in the computed column to be "W0" + [WID]
if [WID] >= 10, I want the value in the computed column to be "W" + [WID]
[WID] is of type tinyint.
What is my computed column specification formula? Thanks.
I've got a slow query that when run in management studio again the publisher database it completes in 2 seconds but when run on a compact 3.5 sdf it takes 5-10 minutes. After adding some indexes it gets down to 5 minutes at best. The complex explicit joins requiring both null or equal are required for the propper results.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks,

Hello,
I have a question:
On my WM5 devide I run 2 query's right after eachother:
DELETE FROM test,
ALTER TABLE test ADD COLUMN abc bit NOT NULL",
I get an error on the second statement. When I change the statement in "NULL" instead of "NOT NULL" it works.
test is a very large table. It seems as if query 2 is executed while the engine is still processing query 1. And then you propably get the NOT NULL statement violation. Is this possible???
I know that writing the registry has some latency because WM5 uses flash instead of ram. Does SQL Compact have the same latency?
Or is this another problem?
Thanks in advance.

First, I hope this is in the correct spot.
I'm trying to build a SS 2005 db from a Sqlbase database and I have coded a program to bring over the data and insert. The problem I'm having is that on some of the tables, I'm getting an "Invalid character value for cast specification" error on an insert. I've found the offending row and discovered that it's an integer that is null in the source table.
The weirdness is, that in SqlServer, it is defined as an "int" column that can be null. I can insert the row through both Management console (connected natively) and through a sql utility from Sqlbase/Gupta (called sqltalk) connected thru ODBC. The problem is when I try the insert through OLEDB within the application, that's when I get the error. I changed the value from null to zero in the source table then it works. I think there must be a "set **** on" on the connection that I'm missing if I can enter the SAME data using Management console but I'm not sure what that is. I don't want to have to find ALL occurences of null integers in my entire database just to insert it into SqlServer.
Has anyone else had this problem??
I have a db1.tPersonJobHist where I have two columns
[WorkflowCoordinatorFlag] [dbo].[shrsFlag] NOT NULL,
[HRBusinessPartnerCode] [dbo].[shrsCode] NULL,
Our developer mistakenly made HRbusinesspartnercode field as nullable. He now wants to change it to Not Nullable.
So there were 4 rows where the values were not null(not sure how). We edited those rows and changed those values to NUll. Now we have no Nulls in that column.
So we brought up the table designer and made the change but got the following error
'tPersonJobHist' table
- Unable to modify table.
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'HRBusinessPartnerCode', table 'BD6578.dbo.Tmp_tPersonJobHist'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
Question is why wouldn't it let me alter the table design. and what is tmp_tpersonjobhist.?
How can I make this column Not-nullable.
Hi,
Please help share with me if you know the version compatibility matrix of Ms SQL Server, ODBC driver (sqlsrv32.dll), Driver Manager (odbc32.dll) and ODBC API spec. For instance, how can I know Ms SQL Server 2000 can work with which version of sqlsrv32.dll, a particular version of sqlsrv32.dll can work with which version of odbc32.dll and a certain version of sqlsrv32.dll/odbc32.dll conforms to which version of ODBC API spec (e.g. 3.5).
Any help will be appreciated.

I have a question about a problem that I cannot seem to tackle. I have installed the following programs on Windows Vista:
- SQL Server 2005
- Visual Studio 2008
- SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5
- SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 Server Tools
I want to do the following:
1. I want to create a SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 database in the SQL Server Management Studio
2. I want my SQL Express server in SQL Server 2005 to be a distributor and publisher
About 1. In SQL Server Management Studio I cannot choose SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 .
ABout 2. I tried to setup my server to be a distrubutor by running a stored procedure with the following name: sp_adddistributor. I get the following error: This edition of SQL Server cannot act as a Publisher or Distributor for replication.
Does anyone have a solution to both problems.
Trying to learn how to use Sql Server CE, Tutorial says to open server explorer, add connection, new connection, select data source as .net sql ce (words to that effect). On my visual studio, it ain't there and I can't figure out how to get it there. I have uninstall all of the Sql Ce stuff and reinstalled it. So I'm missing some key link. What are the magic incantations to get to first base?

SQL Server 2005 SP2 Replication
I am having problems installing the SQL Server Compact Server Tools on my
Vista laptop to allow me to connect my Mobile Device running SQL Server
Compact directly to my SQL Server 2005 database through IIS.
I have done this successfully with an XP machine so I'm not sure if it is
Vista problem or not.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 SP2. When I try to install the replication
server tools (Sqlce30setupen.msi), in "System Configuration Check" window I get a failure on "SQL Server requirement" that says: "You must first install the Replication Components for SQL Server 2000 SP 3a
or higher or the SQL Server 2005 Replication Components" and the client components are full instaled in my computer.
I need help for detect and correct the problem.

Hello,
I just installed SQL Server Compact Edition, since I am considering using it instead of SQL Server Express for a local database in my application. The documentation mentioned that I could use SQL Server Management Studio Express to connect to the Compact Edition and create and manipulate databases.
To try to connect, I run Management Studio and bring up the "Connect to Server" dialog. Unfortunately, the pull-down list of "Server name"s does not include the SQL Server Compact Edition server. I do not know how to type in the server name manually, so I cannot connect.
To install Compact Edition, I downloaded it and ran "SQLServerCE31-EN.msi". This installed, and I assume registered, a number of DLLs in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.1".
Is there perhaps an additional step that I left out to complete the installation?
Might I need an upgrade to some other components? My Management Studio Version is:
- Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.2047.00
I would appreciate any help you can provide.
Thank you,
WTW
Hi all
Which tool can I use for structure editing of SQL Server Compact 3.5 databases? I'm installed SQL Server Compact 3.5. I have SQL Server Management Studio Express which was installed with SQL Server 2005 Express. Unfortunately this SSMS can create and open only 3.1 databases.
Does Sql Server Compact Edition 3.5 support RDA synchronization with Sql Server 2000 database?
Hi,
I am using SQL Express 2005 server and sql compact edition for my PDA. For synchronization, which SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Server Tools installation package do I use?
Is it Sqlce30setupen.msi or sql2kensp4.msi or sql2kensp3a.msi? I know for sql server 2005 its Sqlce30setupen.msi. Is it the same for the SQL Express 2005?
Thanks
Hi,
I am very new to SQL Compact. I am trying to create one database which can work on the desktop application and also on a pda application. I want to create the database but I am unable to start without Management Studio. Can you guide me to the right tools so that I can create database, view it and manage it use something like Management Studio Express.
Also one more question is if my database needs to be at both places on the desktop and on pda how can i synchronise them. PDA will take using c# application data from RFID scans and then i need to sync that database on the desktop so that reports and other info can be generated from the desktop c# application. How to do this?
Please can you guide me to any webcasts or labs so i can clarify my doubts about the design.

When a Windows Mobile or Pocket PC device tries to do a ServerExecute or Push or Pull it gets this error message with SQLOLEDB ...

Message = " [ 600 ]"
NativeError = 29022
numericErrorParameters = {600,0,0}

Which roughly translates to from the header file ...

Message = " [ 9 ]"
NativeError = 29022
numericErrorParameters = {9,0,0}
Source = "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition"
A very similar error.
From this it seems that both SQLCE 2 and 3 seem to want MDAC 2.8+ drivers. The drivers installed with Vista for SQL Native client seem to be versioned 6.0.* and the required versioning would seem to need to be in line with MDAC 2.8.
Are there installable drivers to bump the versioning of SQLNCLI or SQLOLEDB upto MDAC 2.8+ levels?
Or is there an alternative that will make it possible to run SQLCE RDA apps with Vista as the SQLCE server (i.e. sqlcesa30.dll)?

I am writing an application that is designed for the desktop, or small group (3 or less) desktops. The application is being deployed using the Cassini web server as a complete "embedded" solution. I wanted to use SQL Server Compact because of its small footprint and because of the synchronization capabilities with SQLServer. Also, it is very easy to deploy vs. SQL Server Express. The idea behind this APP is that someone might use it locally and then decide to subscribe to the service and then connect the same application to a web services application.
That being said, and with knowledge of Microsoft's stance on SQL Compact under ASP.NET, I have most everything working and it works great except for one thing. When I add a SQLDataSource to the page and set the connection string to my file and the DataProvider to System.Data.SqlServerCe and then bind a data grid to the SQLDataSource, it runs fine on my development machine, but when I deploy to my clean test machine, I get an error when the page loads saying:
Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.
I can create a dataset in code (in fact,in several other places I do) and it works fine. It is just the SQLDataSource(s) that are throwing this error. I have a copy of System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll in the bin folder and I have all of the compact DLL's in the bin folder as well. I can't figure out what I need to do. I also have a reference to the System.Data.SqlServerCe in the web.config file.
Can anyone help?
Hi,
We have just installed visual studio 2008 for a windows mobile application development. This application requires a database also. VS 2008 installs sql server 2005 express edition and the sql server compact edition 3.5. We installed sql server management studio but this is for the express edition only. Please let us know how to use a similar tool for compact edition, we could not find any suitable for the same.

I want to develop an application for my company's user to use...I will use VS2005 C# for windows as development tools,
and then I will develop the pocket PC or smart Phone for same application.In the first,the database I want to use is
SQL Server 2005 Express Edition,but it's difficulity to deploy , because it's fat files ,so if I use SQL Server compact 3.5 ,means I just develop once and I can re-compile the code for user to use Pocket PC and mobile...etc...right?
Does the new SQL server Compact edition RC1 (release in Dec 2006) replace the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Device SDK?
OR is this an additional database for specific requirements.
Currently developing against MS SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Device SDK;; if I switch to the Compact edition; is there a migration wiarzrd or Upgrade wizard available?

FYI, I have added the database in to my solution. My solution and database resides in E:\some directory, where as the my assembly code base represents the datasource as \ProgramFilesMobExpTrackerMobExpTracker.sdf.
SqlCeConnection connection
{
get
{
if (_connection == null)
{
_connection = new SqlCeConnection(ConnectionString);
_connection.Open();
}
return _connection;
}
}
string CurrentFolder
{
get {return Path.GetDirectoryName(Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase);
}
}
const string databaseLocalFileName = "Northwind.sdf";
string DatabasePathName
{
get { return Path.Combine(CurrentFolder, databaseLocalFileName); }
}
const string BaseConnectionString = "Data Source=";
string ConnectionString
{
get { return BaseConnectionString + DatabasePathName; }
}
const string sql =
"INSERT INTO mobexptracker(ExpenseDt,ExpenseDescr,ExpenseAmt) VALUES (@ExpenseDt,@ExpenseDescr,@ExpenseAmt)";
const string sql1 =
"SELECT COUNT(1) FROM mobexptracker";
private void btnSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
bool savesucess = Save();
if (savesucess)
{
MessageBox.Show("Expense Saved Sucessfully!");
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Error!");
}
}
bool Save ()
{
bool success= false;
using (SqlCeCommand cmd = new SqlCeCommand(sql,connection))
{
cmd.Parameters.Add("@ExpenseDt", txtDate.Text);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@ExpenseDescr",txtExpDesc.Text);
cmd.Parameters.Add("@ExpenseAmt",txtExpAmount.Text );
int cnt = (int)cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); // ExecuteScalar();
cmd.
success = cnt > 0;
}
return success;
}
I am working with Visual Studio Team System 2008. I click File, New Project, Smart Device Project. I select Windows Mobile 6 Standard SDK for the platform, and .Net Compact Framework Version 3.5 for the framework version. When I click OK, I get the following message:
---------------------------------------
The operation cannot complete. To fix this problem, first copy these instructions into a separate file and then perform these steps in the order shown:
1. Click OK on this dialog box and the "Package Load Failure" dialog box which will appear after it, and then exit Visual Studio.
2. Reinstall Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5.
3. From the command line, run devenv /resetskippkgs.
------------------------------------
I did all of that, but the message still keeps coming up. Can someone explain how I can create a new project without this message coming up? Thanks.
