SQL Server Mobile 2005 - Licensing

Jul 10, 2007

Hi,

Could someone pl explain how is SQL Server mobile 2005 licensed. Do we need to buy license for each device ? or CAL?

In my app, I need a database which is accessed by .net compact framework app. synchronization is also done by our own app, no direct communication from sql server mobile to sql server db. we have a server side .net app which talks to the sql server and a windows mobile app which talks to the sql mobile db, these two .net apps talk to each other like:

sql server mobile db <--->.net compact framework app <--->.net desktop app <-->sql server 2005

Needless to say, there would be multiple devices having the above setup. However only one desktop side app and database. In this scenario, how would licensing be calculated?

regards,
D2

SQL Server Mobile 2005 Merge Replication Problem On Windows Mobile 5.0

Aug 8, 2006



Dear ppl,

I am writing an application for a device (MDA Pro T-Mobile) having Windows Mobile 5.0 using

-MS .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP-1
-SQL Mobile 2005.
-VS 2005 .NET

The application uses Merge Replication. The error occurs in the Synchronise() Method of the SqlCeReplication object.

"SQL Server Mobile encountered problems when opening the database."

repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);
repl.Synchronize();

I don't understand why I am having this error. It does create the database on AddSubscription() method but it is failing opening the database on Synchronise(). I have also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling all the SQL Mobile components in the following order.

-sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.repl.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.dev.ENU.wce5.armv4i.cab

However, when i run this application on a device(Dell X50 AXIM) with Pocket PC 2003, it runs fine creating the database and sysnchronising it.

The target platform for the project is Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK.

Does any one have any clue what could be the problem ?

Regards
Nabeel

Problem Using SQL Server Mobile 2005 With Windows Mobile 5 Application

Mar 23, 2006

Hello,

I am developping a non-managed C++ application for PocketPC using a SQL Server mobile database.

The application is compiled for PocketPC 2003 and uses SQL Server Mobile v2. I use Visual Studio 2005. But I need to compile the application for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. So I installed the WM5 SDK and had the WM5 into my project configuration.

The "ssceoledb.h" which I include incluses the "transact.h" file. But my problem is that this file is only provided with the PocketPC 2003 SDK and not in the WM5 SDK.
So I cannot use the WM5 configuration project with SQL Server. I also tried with the last SQL Server Mobile 2005 (ie v3.0) and the "ssceoledb30.h" also includes "transact.h".

Did I miss something to install ?
Do you know how I can resolve the problem ?

By advance, thank you for any answer.

SQL Server 2005 Licensing Concern.

Mar 5, 2008

Hello,Our company has developed several Access applications for our clientsand we wish to expand to use a database server. We wish to use Accessas the front end application and SQL Server 2005 as the back endDatabes Server. Making a Server-Client application database.I'm very new to SQL Server so my concern is how the licensing worksfor a developer like us. I am aware that we can purchase the Developeredition for $49 USD. Our clients will then have to purchase a theirrespective licensing option.We do not have an issue with this, but i would like a betterunderstanding of how this works.1) The developer edition (DE) is the same as the Enterprise edition.Would our clients have to buy the Enterprise edition ($24,999) if wedevelop the SQL server in the DE? Or can they purchase the Standardor Workgroup edition if the workload allows it?2) If the client already has the Enterprise Edition on the Server wewish to use, will they have to buy the license again if we create theDatabase? Can they import our Database to thier SQL Server, and ourapplication connects to thiers?3) Is there other options that would require a cheaper option for ourclients?4) With just the DE, can we develope applications and use theappropriate edition for our clients whatever it is?5) To test our products we thought of using the Trial version tosimulate a multi-user test environment? Since thats just a 180 daytrial, perhaps the Worgroup Edition or the Light weight Edition mightwork. But these editions might not be compatible with our clients'requirements. The DE doesn't seem to handle multi-user environments,so we cant effectively test how the application will perform in the"real world". Any advices here?Our clients range from small bussiness to nation-wide to multi-national companies.Thanks,- GL

SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Licensing

May 1, 2008

I'm getting some conflicting information , regarding sql 2005 Standard Edition licensing for multi instancing.

If you have multiple instances of SQL 2005 Standard Edition on one Server, do you need to pay a server license for every Instance or just the one Server license?

What Licensing Is Needed To Mirror A SQL 2005 Server?

May 7, 2008



Hello,

I hope this is in the right forum, I'm new to MSDN. I'm also not an expert in SQL, so please bear with me as I was unable to find an answer by searching the archives.

We have a single SQL 2005 Standard installation with 30 user CALs on a Server2003R2 box. We have another Server 2003 box in a remote but connected location that we previously used for backup replication. What we'd like to do is use some of the replication features in SQL 2005 to replicate the data over every night to the other box, onto which we would install another copy of SQL 2005. This would not be a server accessed by clients, but simply a "live backup", that in the event of a catastrophic failure, could be manually set up to operate as a SQL server in place of the failed primary server. I don't need any kind of automatic "failover", just the ability to replicate the data over to the other system so I have two SQL Servers that synchronize from one to the other overnight.

I was told that I wouldn't need to buy the user CALs again, that the 30 user cals would translate over if the primary server fails and has to be replaced by the cloned server. But what do I buy for the SQL server itself? A boxed version is a bit pricy and comes with 5 CALs which apparently I wouldn't need. Then I noticed that on softwaremedia.com the open license version, which can be bought a la carte, lists a requirement of buying at least 5 cals or a processor license. What exactly do I need to do this, and how can I get it for the least amount of further spending?

Thanks!

SQL Mobile 2005 Replication - SQL Mobile DLL Could Not Be Loaded - Error 28559

Jun 15, 2006

I am migrating a pocket PC application from VS 2003 to VS 2005 and a few weeks ago I hit the following problem when replicating

A SQL Mobile DLL could not be loaded. Reinstall SQL Mobile. [ DLL Name=sqlceca30.dll]

Scanning forums for help I saw that other people had had this problem and one

http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/NETFrameworkCompactFramework/Feb2006/post25814466.asp

suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.

I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is

Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database

My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.

Developer Edition Licensing SQL Server 2000/2005

Nov 26, 2007

Hello,

I have two question with respect to the developer edition licensing in SQL Server 2000 and 2005:

Question 1
I wanted to install a developer edition on a Development/Test Server. The server needs to be accessed by our development and Testing team of a team of 20 from their workstations. Is that possible?

Question 2
And if so what are the different licensing options that I can choose from considering that I don't want to install a developer edition of sql server on each workstation? The developer edition will be installed on the Dev/Test Server and the workstations will connect to the server using NT or Standard authentication.

Looking forward for any advice and suggestions.

Thanks!

SQL 2005 Standard Edition - Licensing Question For Web Server

Apr 11, 2008

I have one server hosting an ASP.NET application. It will be running 2005 Standard Edition.

I don't really understand which licensing model I need. Obviously processor licensing would work, but at a hefty price!

The web application and SQL Server are on the same machine, and no other machines will be querying the database. The only 'users' are the people who visit the website (both internal and external users).

Can someone help me properly determine the most cost efficient licening model to use?

Thanks

SQL Server 2005 Standard Licensing &&amp; Free Ready To Launch CAL

Jul 6, 2007

Hi folks



I attended one of the SQL Server 2005 "Ready to Launch" parties a couple of years ago and was given a complimentary SQL Server Standard Edition CAL along with a copy of the SQL Server 2005 Standard setup DVD.



As there's no mention in the "Ready to Launch" pack of an included Server license I was wondering whether it is possible to install a copy of SQL Server 2005 on a standalone server and use the single CAL in a Production environment without having to purchase a Server license? The pack does include a Product Key - is this the Server license?



Thanks

How Do I Measure Bandwith Usage For Merge Replication SQL 2005 To Sql Server Mobile 2005?

Jan 24, 2007

Hi,

Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.

Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?

thnx,

SQL Server Standard 2005, SQL Mobile 2005 Data Encryption Issues

Jul 26, 2007

Hi,

I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.

I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.

However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?

Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.

The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.

Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.

how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?

thank you.

VS 2005/SQL Server2005 - Direct Connection From Win Mobile Emulator To Desktop SQL Server 2000 Or 2005

Aug 10, 2007

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.

Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.


Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"

Dim Conn As SqlConnection

Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)

Conn.Open()


If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
MessageBox.Show("Open")
End If


About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.

Your advice and help is very appreciated

Thank you

SQLCe Errors When Doing Developing A SQL Mobile Application With Visual Studio 2005 And SQL Server 2005 Tutorial

Feb 26, 2008

I'm attempting to use RDA to synchronize a pocket pc emulator with SQL Server 2005 database by following tutorial http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa454892.aspx, which uses AdvWorksMobile database that comes with SQL Server 2005.

When get to testing of "To test application features " ( step 4 of the merge replication setup lab ), I am receiving SQLCe Exception errors.

ORIGINALLY, I was able to deploy an application and view the local database on the emulator, but once I clicked "InitSinc" button, I received an error.

"Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not" exist, access is denied because the SQL user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect.
Found this error listed in Server Agent Errors log http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172357.aspx, but it wasn't very helpful since it doesn't provide any suggestions on fixing the problems.

I am brand new to SQL CE Server , mobile programming and .NET framework in general so please bare with me



All the connections / security settings, etc that were set up were taken from a tutorial so I am not sure what SQLCeServer is complaining about. Reading up on the error on the web didn't help, it all pointed to making sure that the snapshot folder had correct permissions set up. I verified that MACHINENAMEUISR_MACHINENAME guest user had Read rights to the database so I don't think that piece is the problem. Otherwise ,Merge publication has been setup in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio by following the tutorial.


I am trying to run this sync on my home pc so there should be no issues with any user permissions


I have IIS installed


I did NOT have SQL Server Agent running in management studio at this time


I am trying to run this tutorial on an XP machine, which is my regular home PC so I dont think there are any special networking settings to consider


I am able to hit http://localhost/AdvWorksMobile/sqlcesa30.dll from my pc OK, but when I try to hit it from a cradled emulator ( after replacing "localhost" with "MACHINE_NAME" ), Internet Explorer on the emulator gives me a "Cannot Connect With Current Settings" error message. This part wasn't part of tutorial but decided so not sure if I am supposed to be able to hit it from my emulator..so I am not sure if the fact that I can't hit it is related to the problem.
AFTER STARTING SQL SERVER AGENTin Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, I killed the application, and after relaunching it, it hits "The Specified table does not exist [Vendor]" error. This time it doesn't even launch first - that is I dont even get to pressing "InitSinc" button. Debugger is showing that this error is hit on the following line in AdvWorksMobile.AddWorksDataSetTableAdapters

int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable);

I am not sure why the errors changed on me after starting SQL Server Agent.
What can I do to fix this connection problem?

Thank you so much for your help!

Irina

Sql Server 2005 Mobile/RDA Connection Problem

Apr 14, 2006

I have a working Pocket PC 2003 app that uses RDA to exchange data with SQL Server 2000.  I'm attempting to port it to a Windows CE 5.0 device.   (I'll be porting to Mobile 5 in the near future, but the gadget I have at the moment is CE). 

I installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on the computer running IIS according to package directions, and used the wizard to set up a virtual directory with sscesa30.dll.

The directory I was previously using with sscesa20.dll is still there, and still works.

I set up the virtual directory to use basic authentication without SSL.  (I know that's not advisable).  I have confirmed that I can reach the URL using the username and password I supplied to the wizard.

When I try to pull data I get the following:

------------------- SQL CE Exception
Error Code: 80004005
Message   : An error has occurred on the computer running IIS. Try restarting the IIS server.
Minor Err.: 28022
Source    : Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition


I have tried restarting IIS without effect.  Any clues?

Windows Mobile 5 Connecting To SQL Server 2005

This very same string, and variations of it, work in a vs2005 winforms app, but not a windows mobile 5. I'm (obviously) using system.data.sqlclient. MS documentation says it's supported on both platforms with no syntax changes. Any suggestions?

Merge Replication Between SQL Server 2005 And SQL Mobile

Oct 18, 2007

Hi,

I'm currently investigating the feasibility of having SQL Mobile on a number of devices running Windows CE. These devices will have to synchronize with the server (either using merge replication or RDA) over GPRS. The problem I have is that some of these devices will never be online. Is there are a way of synching these offline devices? The model I had in mind was using a USB key (or some other storage device) to download the latest updates from an online device and transferring this data to the offline device, and vice versa e.g. from offline to online and then merging. Is this feasible?

Thanks
