Hi there,
I need to create a synchoronization with the Server Mobile (displayed in the Pocket PC emulator) once the website (SQL server Database) is updated. Is there any coding available? How is it possible? PLSSSSS HELP ME....
I create a distributed database for mobile application. I replicate a table that distribute on mobile device. I follow instruction how to create distributor, publication, replication, web synchronization, and subscriber database. I have done fine for synchronization between mobile database into desktop database (in this case SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition). But the problem is how can setup publication so it can bidirectional, not only from mobile database into desktop database, but also from desktop database into mobile database. So in the mobile database can have same data with desktop database even on mobile database lost some old data.
Its like data exchange between both engine. Desktop and mobile have same data. For filtering I can put filter on the desktop server for replicated table, so don't worry how I split the data.
Thanks a lot.
I have something called Configure Web Synchronization Wizard under my SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on my XP machine. My problem is that I need to install it on a Windows 2000 machine and I can't find the installation package for it. I installed SQL Server 2005, which installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition, but I didnt' get the wizard. I also installed Visual Studio 2005.
Anyone know where it is?
Hello,
I plan to use :
- SQL Server on server
- SQL Server Express on notebooks
- SQL Mobile on Windows Mobile 5.0 devices.
How can I create a replication between SQL Express and SQL Mobile ? SQL Server express cannot act as a Publisher server.
In this post a Senior Program Manager says It is possible but I don't find how to :

Hi Everyone
I am at the stage of architecting my solution
My goal is to develop the system on a windows application and pda
There is a central server which will create a publication called inventory
The laptops which host the windows application will be subscribers to the central server using merge replication
The client now wants the PDA using SQL Mobile to synchronize with the local subscirber database on the laptop using active sync. They dont want to do it via WIFI to the IIS Server at the central server
I have been reading for days and I am still unsure whether this is possible to do.
I know Appforge provide a conduit for palm to access synchronization but not local sql databases
I would appreciate your help immensley
Hi all!
I've been trying to solve this issue searching other posts but nothing seems to solve my problem.
Background:
I developed an app in visual studio 2003 for an iPAQ. This app. needs to synchronize the database in the iPAQ whith one in the server. My server was a local machine with SQL Server 7. With some problems but I made it run. I used SQLCE 2.0 and at the begining a previous model for for the iPAQ with other OS. Then I find out that in Windows mobile 5.0, sql ce has to be installed manually.
So:
Windows 2000
SQL Server 7
SQLCE 2.0
Windows Mobile 5.0 (and one previous)
All the required configuration as below
Problem:
I have a new machine and I have to configure it for the same process:
Windows XP
SQL Server 2000 (Service Pack 4 and Replication components)
.Net Framework 1.1 (although I had .net framework 2.0 installed .net asked for it)
SQL 2005 Mobile Edition
SQL 2005 Mobile Edition Server Tools
.Net Compact Framework 2.0
ActiveSync 4.5
IIS installed and configured
IUSR_XXXX created and with system administrator rol and dbo access to the database
Publication created and with permissions to IUSR_XXXX
Snapshot folder created and shared with permissions for IUSR_XXXX (read and write)
Virtual directory created and working:
http://<ip adress>/<snapshot folder>/sqlcesa30.dll works fine in IE
same url working in the iPAQ
Error:
When I use replicator.Synchronize() I get the next error:
Error: 80072F76
HResult -2147012746
NativeError 28035
Message "Header information is either corrupted or missing. [,,,Header name,,]"
PLEASE HELP!!!!
Thank you in advance

Hi,
We have a strange problem synchronizing data with mobile device. Replication is done with Integeration Services packages which replicates data to two tables in replication database. Those two tables are also the only tables in replication database.
When mobile device is synchronized for the first time, all the required data is transfered to mobile device as it should. But, if there are new lines to be added to replication database when integration service packages are ran (and also published), those new lines are not synchronized to mobile device! What makes it strange, if I add new lines to replication database manually, those are synchronized to mobile device correctly.
This could be an issue with my replication/publication but I just have no idea what it is. Any help is much appreciated!
Hi all,
Some time ago, you helped me to solve some issues with my app. in an iPAQ and it was working just fine connecting by modem in a test environment. Now in a new server, production environment, it does not work anymore.
I have done everything I was supposed to, but can´t get it to work.
I have the next error: "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information see HRESULT".
HRESULT error is something like -2147120897 and I've searched for this and it says it's a timeout error, but I have increased the timeout in the SQL Server and in IIS service but did not work.
I have my publication working, the snapshot folder created and with permissions, the sqlcesa30.dll working just fine from my iPAQ and connecting by modem. IUSR_<server> user with full access to snapshot, database, publication. ActiveSync installed. I think everything else working just fine!!
Please, can anyone help me???If you need my server and iPAQ config please ask me.
Thank you in advance!!!

I am creating a mobile application in which i am implementing data synchronization through merge replication method as per the step by step procedure given in the following link:-
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx
I am using SQL server Mobile Edition which is included in SQL server 2005 in this application, but the application suggests to use SQL server Compact Edition. I was able to successfully create the publication, but not able to run the sqlcesa30.dll file of the created virtual directory in the internet explorer. Is this problem because of i'm not using SQL server Compact Edition? and also let me know if i use SQL server Mobile Edition, do i need to install its Server Tools? If yes, please give me the link to download the tools needed.
Reply Soon.
I have two SQL Server Database, one is at my company and one is at my company's customer. There are two related databases and two related tables in the servers. When I make a change in the table at my database, I want these changes to be done at the other server. I mean the related tables should have the same records all-time. I made a search and found that "Linked-Servers" is a good idea in this scenario. I made a linked server and run the following query in the Query Analyzer;insert into SAMPLE_LINKED_SERVER.SAMPLE_DATABASE.dbo.SAMPLE_TABLE(id,name) Select id,name From MY_SAMPLE_TABLE Where id Not In (Select id From SAMPLE_LINKED_SERVER.SAMPLE_DATABASE.dbo.SAMPLE_TABLE)This query works as I wanted. But I want this process to be done automaticaly without user interaction. Should I use Trigger? Do you suggest using Linked Servers?Or is there any other methods to make synchronization between two SQL Server Database?If I cannot find a good method in SQL Server, then I will be forced to make this synchronization by writing .NET code, but that would be difficult I think. Any suggestion and comment is wellcome.Thanks in advance.

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 ?

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.

We have been using Sql Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.1 RDA synchronization method successfully on Sql Server 2000 database. Recently we moved the database to Sql Server 2005, sync doesn't work anymore, it just hangs on one table. On further investigation, we found out that it's the index on that table that causes this. We removed the index, it works fine. We are wondering the root cause, removing the index is not a solution for us. Any thoughts?. Thanks.
View 1 Replies View RelatedUsing MS VS 2005 (incl SQL Server Mobile)
MS Pocket PC 2005 SDK
I am working on a project that builds for Pocket PC on both Mobile 2003 and Mobile 5. The project uses/will use SQL Server Mobile to store local data.
Project created from new with support for both platforms. I include required header files ssceerr30.h and ssceoledb30.h.
Project builds fine in WM2003 configuration, release and debug.
When I build for WM5 the compiler cannot find the header file transact.h. This is included from within ssceoledb30.h. Same as under WM2003.
In WM2003 configuration if I highlight the ssceoledb30.h include in Visual Studio and open the header, it takes me to <Visual Studio dir>SmartDevicesSDKSQL ServerMobilev3.0. I then locate the include for transact.h and do the same, which takes me <Visual Studio dir>SDKPocketPC2003include. The file exists.
If I repeat the above 'browsing' under the WM5 configuration, ssceoledb30.h takes me to a different copy in the WM5 SDK directory. There is no diff between the file here and the other copy used by WM2003. If I attempt to open transact.h - file does not exist.
Fix (which I'm not too sure about, i.e. is it OK?) - If I copy transact.h to the WM5 SDK directory, the project builds.
Why has transact.h disappeared from WM5 SDK?
I can find no ref's to this problem anywhere. Is my installation of the WM5 SDK corrupt? What else could I be missing?
Is there a sample for SQL Server mobile (like the NorthwindOLEDB sample) that comes configured to build for WM5?
Hi folks, I'm new to Windows Mobile progamming, and new to this forum. Apologies in advance if I'm asking a boneheaded question, but I've done searches and can't find anything directly applicable to my problem.
I'm currently walking through the published MS tutorial in setting up an SQL Server 2005 Mobile application that subscribes to a publication on SQL Server 2005 to exchange information.
I've gotten almost all the way through... successfully set up the server components, creating the publication, etc. On the mobile side, I've been able run the cab files to install the SQL Mobile components and to create the project, add the reference to the dll, and instantiate an engine object. It compiles.
The step in the tutorial after that, though, where you specify the data source from the "data" menu, I've got a problem. When I try to use the "new connection" dialog from choosing the data connection, "MS SQL Server Mobile Edition" doesn't show up as a choice. I've tried choosing any of the other combinations, and in teh subsequent "Connection properties" section my database, SQLMobile (as in their sample) is available, but I get an error when I choose it and click OK. Clicking on "Test Connection" gives me a connection successful message.
My guess is that something about the Mobile server side components is not installed correctly on my development machine, but honestly I have no idea how to begin to fix it. Has anyone seen this problem before and know how to resolve it?
Your time and any knowledge sharing is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Hi, everyone! I have a small problem.
It consists in:
1. I'm trying to connect to database on my Pocket PC within Visual Studio 2005 (C#)
Connection string looks like this:
SqlCeConnection1.ConnectionString = "data source = '\storage card\mobiluser.sdf'";
But when i'm deploying it to Pocket PC the error "An error message cannot be displayed because an optional resource assembly containing it cannot be found" appears.
2. When I'm doing te same on Pocket PC Emulator everything is normal.
Off course, I have the .sdf file on Pocket PC which is placed to Storage Card into root directory.
If anyone knows where I get a mistake, help me please!
Thanks for your help!

Hello!
I'm trying to connect a sql ce database from a PPC with WM 2003 to a sql server 2005 database.
I discover the class SqlCeRemoteDataAccess, so i've been trying, unsucessfuly, to get things working.
I googled a lot, i read Ms Articles from MSDN, i read some posts here, but can't find solution for my problem. As you can see in my code, i already tryed different aprroaches, differente connections strings, with "provider", without "provider", with "sspi", without "sspi", you name it...
I configure the sql server agent like i read in msdn, and he's working well, i'm able to see the message. ("Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition Server Agent" when i open the url).
The sql database credentials are correct, i already check that.
I did everything i knew and i read, unfortunately i still can't manage to find a solution for an error message:
"SQL Server Mobile encountered problems when opening the database." The native error is 28559
That's an Exception error message, that appears to me.
Can somebody help me?
Thank you!

This is a great tutorial and it's a shame one of the more important steps was missed.
In the €œCreate the snapshot user€? section you you find the steps to create the snapshot_agent account. Then in the €œCreate the snapshot folder€? section you find the share and folder permissions. However, at no point do the instructions advise you about adding the snapshot_agent to the SQL Server Logins. The result is that agent cannot perform the initial snapshot but you won't find this out until 50 steps later after Step 10 in the section €œCreate a new subscription".
To get back on track, openthe Object Explorer's Security section and add the snapshot_agent to your logins. Then using the "User Mappings", set an appropriate level for the SQLMobile database role. Once completed you then need to run the agent.
Right-click the SQLMobile publication you created and select "View Snapshot Agent status". From that dialog you can select "Start" to run the agent. When it completes, you can return to the tutorial section "Create a new subscription" and continue with the tutorial.
I am studying the tutorial in SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Books Online, and the topic is Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile. I have got a problem when creating a new subscription after created a new SQL Server Mobile database. And the problem is shown below:
New Subscription Wizard
- Beginning Synchronization (Success)
- Synchronizing Data (100%) (Error)
Messages
* Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect.
HRESULT 0x80004005 (29061)
* 無法完æˆ?作æ¥ã€‚
- Finalizing Synchronization (Stopped)
- Saving Subscription Properties (Stopped)
Before I have met this problem, I have finished all the task. And I can browse the localhost web site by using anonymous account even I use internet explorer or browse the directly in IIS.
Does anyone can solve it?? Thank you very much~~~
There are any import/export utilities for SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database? Which edition of SQL Server 2005 can do this?
Or we must use publication/subscription to transfer data to the mobile database?
Thank you for your help!
