Standalone Database Application??
Mar 24, 2006
Hey guys,
I'm really new to this so this might look dumb, but I need to know what all has to be done to develop a standalone database application.....The frontend is going to be on VC++...which are the best tools I'll need to use. I need to know if the user has to install the database app to use the program to make this possible......Also will he have to keep it running everytime to use the program.
Thanks a lot for you time and patience,
Dhaval

I have a need to demonstrate an application I built in ASP.NET with SQL Server as the back-end database. The problem is when I don't have a network connection, I get an exception thrown..."SQL Server does not exist or access denied." This is the connection string I use (via ASP.NET/ADO.NET): "server=localhost; uid=xxxx; pwd=xxxx; database=mydb"
I've tried Query Analyzer and it too, doesn't work - I get an error message that reads: "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or access denied." However, via SQL Server Enterprise Manager, I can connect and do what I want to the database.
As soon as I connect my laptop to any network, the web application works fine (no errors), as well as the Query Analyzer.
Any insights are greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have a vbs script to try to prove that I can perform vbs scripting in either a job step or a dts package
The script is
dim rs, sql,adoconn, adocommand, dataconnstring
set adoconn = createObject("ADODB.CONNECTION")
Set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set adocommand = CreateObject("ADODB.Command")
adoconn.ConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=myserver;Database=pubs;U id=myuser;Pwd=mypass;"
adoconn.Open
sql = "select * from import"
rs.Open sql, adoconn,adOpenForwardOnly
while rs.EOF = false
sql = "insert into zz default values"
adocommand.ActiveConnection = adoconn
adocommand.CommandText = sql
adocommand.Execute
rs.MoveNext
wend
rs.Close
adoconn.Close
set adoconn = nothing
However,
when I run this from windows explorer it works fine,
but when I try to run it as an activeX script, I get the error ActiveX scripting: Function not found
As a cmdexec step in a job, I use the line c:inetpubwwwrootvbsvbstest1.vbs
It failed with the error
The process could not be created for step 1 of job 0x119BDBD264AD9B4597A9302786F0E250 (reason: %1 is not a valid Win32 application). The step failed.
What is wrong with the vbs script ?, or do I need to invoke it a different way ?
thanks in advance

I have an issue with the BCP util, it is extremely slow when running a BCP in to the same database on an A/P cluster vs. Standalone system. It is a vendor application, so I have little control as to what I can do. The BCP runs from a jobserver (remote) through the network, but it runs the same way in the standalone system, yet the process is about 10X as slow with the cluster, and the only diff is cluster vs. standalone.
SQLClusterName is specified in -S, not the active node, and it uses a trusted connection, not a local account. Is there anything about a cluster config that would cause the BCP to run slower ?
Any thoughts ??
Thanks,
Paul

Here is my Question...
I have 3 server hardware and the whole purpose is to make one as a web server and another one a SQL server. The purpose of the 3rd server is purely a backup server, what that means is, in case if my web server nor my database server fails, I should be able to use the 3rd server as a backup. How do I achive this without using MS cluster service.
I can use NLB for Web, but what about SQL server ??
All I need to know is ,other than MS cluster service, is there any way I can create a backup SQL database server ( secondary database server) in case the primary fails with very minimal down time? I need my secondary ( backup) server up and running when the primary fails. I don't want to use Cluster service because of the cost for storage and license.
Any idea will be welcomed. I could have used the datamirroring option of the 2005 , but this is for a production deployment and is not recomended by microsoft. also, restore the backup from primary and make it work is not welcomed.
Thanks
Plakeezhu.

Hi,
I am developing a web project in VS 2005 Professional.
The site will be hosted on a machince that does not have an instance of Sql Server Express. Can I still use the standalone sql database file (.mdf) file? Are there drivers in ASP.NET that allow this or do I have to ask that an instance of either Sql Server or Sql Server Express be installed?
Thanks, Mike

I've just spent the most frustrating 4 hours trying to install SP2.
I kept getting "unable to start SQL Server service....see BOL ...re starting the service manually" messages; with the only options being to Retry or Cancel. Retry resulted in the same message. Cancel resulted in all components except SQL (sqlexpress) being installed - therefore totally useless
No mater what I did i could start the SQLservice as it did'nt show in the list of Services; nor did the SQL EE programme show in the Add/Remove Programs...evenn though the other components did.
I deleted/removed everything that was istalled; cleaned up the Registry; and tried again...
..and again
..and again
FIVE install / re-install failures; numerous registry cleanups!!!!
I was at the point where it looked like i'd have to reformat my hard disk, and completely re-install XP, all aplications i.e. Office 2003 etc in order for the thing to work.
I gave it one more shot, but this time, during install
- selected all components except SDK
- I unchecked the Start SQL / BROWSER at startup
- Checked the Enable User Instances and Add to Administrators boxes
Lo and behold....it installed!!!
I'm still very worried as the registry is full of "duplicate" entries i.e. Blah blah blah and blah blah blah.1
But at least the thing is installed.
Would interested to hear if anyone has had similar or other problems with the SP2 install/upgrade
----------------------
For info:
I ran the install as Administrator
IIS not installed
Win XP Sp2 fully updated
Dell Inspiron XPS M1710 laptop with 2gb Ram; 2ghz Duo core processors

Help!!!
I want to install SQLExp2K5 with Advanced Services on a standalone basis on my Dell Inspiron XPS laptop (Win XP sp2, .NET 2.0; 2gb RAM; 8mb broadband; hardware firewall/router) so that I can learn SQL/VB/VWD, and want to use SQL E 2K5 without internet connectivity (at least until I know what the hell I'm doing!)
Really confused as to what component(s), and services I should/should not install - so I've listed my questions below:
1. Service Account: As I'm not on / dont have a domain, i presume using a domain user account is not an option for me. Should I use the Local Service account ? If so, what are/can be the issues in doing so?
2. Authentication Mode: Is Windows Authentication the one to use for a standalone install?; how would I enable the "sa" account and set an "sa" password? In fact, do I even need an"sa" account / password for a standalone, non internet connected install?
3. Components at install: Is it OK to install all components first off?
4. IIS: Is it possible to install IIS and not allow it access to the internet (or is this a stupid question -bearing in mind I dont really know what IIS is/does)
5: Business Intelligence Development Suite: How do I add BIDS once (IF) I manage to install SQLExp2K5-Adv.Ser,?
6. SQLExp2K5 Books on-line: Am I right in thinking that I should install this after installing SQLExp2K5?
7: Visual Basic Express/Visual Web Developer Express: Do these need to be configured seperately to work with SQLExp2K5?
Sorry about the length of this post, but have tried to be as clear as possible. Also apologise in advance for silly/stupid questions :)
All help and advice greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
sqlexpressbeginner

Dear all
I am a pretty new in the development world fresh from uni. I am doing development on a system that has a security database. Access to the data in that database is pretty important. So in case the main server where the database is stored for soem reason fails or gets compromised i need to have a second copy with the most recent data in that database and keep the application up and running. The data i have is stored in a SQL 2005 database. What are the recomended aproaches for acheiving this needed reliability?
Would running the SQL Agent every 2 minutes do the trick? And replicate the database to another server and then have asecondary deployment on that server running as a backup? Or are there any other means?
Any advice is apreciated.
Sincerely

I was all set to build some triggers on some modified date tables when in the last minute I found out that the application (built in C#) was controlling the after update trigger.
Is there a tool you can use in SSMS to see if there is a connection set up like this?

Hello,
We just converted one of our commercial applications over to using SQL Server. We have a database that is about 700megs in size, what I want to know is how is one suppose to actually deploy a database in an automated install? I have created T-SQL insert scripts, but it is 764M in size, and it takes forever to read the script in to send to the SQL Server. So I am looking for suggestions on how to actually do this.
Thanks

I added a database named appdata to the app_data folder to hold temporary application data. I want to show this data in a report. I created a dataset and an object to select the data. I then created an report.fdlc and a report.aspx with a ReportViewer on it pointing to the dataset object. If I right click on the report.aspx and View in Browser, it work perfectly. But when I upload it to the server I get and browse to it I get (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified). The server does allow remote connections. So I am thinking it's my connection string of the fact that the server doesn't have Sql Server Express.?
Here's my connection string. What am I missing here?
<add name="appdataConnectionString"
connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|appdata.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

Hi All, I will shortly (hopefully) begin devleoping an ASP.Net web application to let users manage a remote sql server 2005 database (kind of like the php myAdmin tool for MySQL databases). Were not talking a server managament tool for DBAs, more an end user tool for managing personal databases (it seems that web hosting companies provide tools for MySQL, but if you use SQL Server, you're stuck unless you have management tools on your PC - and what about mac users?).Given that premise, what features should i attempt to include? Creating and modifying tables structures and data is an obvious inclusion, but what else? I also haven't yet decided whether to go about this using scripts or using SMO. I've read that SMO is backwards compatible across versions of SQL Server...how true is this? are there issues or is it seamless? Please post any comments or thoughts you have, and thanks for taking the time.

I have tried to find all the threads related to this topic. At this point I would like to find out what the best practices are for doing this. I plan to use Membership, Roles, and the login controls to handle my authentication and permissions issues. I want to use the same database for my application data as for Application Services, using a standard SQL Server. So far, the easiest way to set this up that I can think of is to:1. Use aspnet_regsql.exe to create the Application Services Database schema2. Edit the "LocalSqlServer" entry in <connectionStrings> to point to the above database3. Add the tables, views, stored procedures, etc., that I need for my application into the database created in step 1Is there any more configuration I need to do to get Membership and Roles working? When I did the Walkthrough, step 2 seemed to be the only requirement for getting Membership and Roles to work.Will I run into any trouble using LocalSqlServer for my application data updates?I would be interested in any other approaches to setting up a combined database, including opinions why and why not to do it.

Hi there,
Has anyone ever encountered problems making .Net applications connect to a SQL database on SQL 2000 with SP3a?
It's running on a virtual machine with a Windows Server 2000 Std with SP4, the .Net application is working with .Net Framework 1.1.4322.573. For some reason it can't connect to the SQL database using the specified username and password in the web.config file even though the user exists in the SQL database. I've tried using the SA password but this still doesn't work. I can logon to SQL Query Analyzer using the SA password but not using the other username.
The .Net application does work on other systems of mine all of which can run on Windows Server 2000 and 2003, I have compared them but can't find any differences.
Any ideas anybody?
Thanks,
Chris

Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me answer this question.
If I had a site like Yahoo, that constantly had users accessing it. Would it be a good or bad idea to automatically open a database connection to SQL Server on Application Start? What would you recommend? Would opening and closing the DB connection on every page save alot of overhead and bottleneck? Thank You.
