I am developing a windows application that will run on every client station. This application will refer to a database located on a server station. Can I use MSDE for such application and if so how many remote concurrent connection can be open simultaneously?

I am trying to install MSDE 2.8 on this OS. When I try to install, I receive the following error: Fatal error setup This setup does not support installing on this operating system
Any ideas?
I am attempting to write a Windows service that watches a database for uploaded files to import. When a new file is found, the corresponding SSIS package is run from the file system with variables passed through. I started development as a Windows app and copied the functionality to a service.
The app runs fine. The service does not. I get a "Failure" each time a package is executed. Everything is identical behind the scenes with the obvious exceptions that OnStart and OnStop handlers are buttons in the app. I added a script task at the beginning of one of the SSIS packages to notify me that it is even running at all. It doesn't even hit that initial task.
Again, the app will run all packages just fine. The data is imported and the results return as "Success."
The following is the code executing the package. Any help is appreciated. I've been banging my head on this one for a few days now. (Is there a tag to format a code sample?)
Dim pkgLocation As String
Dim pkg As New Package
Dim app As New Application
Dim pkgResults As DTSExecResult
pkgLocation = sPackageFolder & PackageName & ".dtsx"
pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLocation, Nothing)
Dim vars As Variables = pkg.Variables
vars("ImportId").Value = ImportId
vars("ProductionServer").Value = ProductionServer
vars("ProductionDatabase").Value = ProductionDatabase
vars("SourceFileName").Value = FileName
vars("SourceFilePath").Value = FilePath
pkgResults = pkg.Execute()

I'm looking for an help :(
I'ved installed MSDE on a Windows 2000 Pro with this option in Setup.ini :
INSTANCENAME=msde
SECURITYMODE=SQL
SAPWD=<mypassword>
All goes good, and at the end of install process, i restart pc.
When restarting, i logged in , and the icon of MSDE was in the System Tray.
Strange thing, is that the circle in the icon have no red square or green arrow inside, but is empty.
I open the window of MSDE and at Server and Service, was 2 empty fields.
I filled on SERVER with the IP address of my pc
Service Field, continue to be blank :(
When i try to start the MSDE, it tells to me that there's no selected service, so the MSDE can't start.
Have someone some ideas on how to solve this?
Thanks to everyone for help!
Hi,
Got a problem with network access for MSDE on Win2003 SBS. I have tried all the usual stuff (SVRNETCN, firewall check) to get windows to open the port for network access, but I am having no luck.
Thought it maybe something to do with win2003 "increased" security.. so check the IPSec policy but nothing looks like it is assigned, plus I could also be checking the wrong policy.
As you can probably tell I know only little bits about server, policies and everything that goes with it (I normally work with the lovely pre setup database) but guess its time I should learn.
So with my small and probably dangerous knowledge can someone please let me know if I am looking in the right area for allowing port 1433 to open for MSDE? If I am how to I edit the policy to allow something to run accross the network?
Basic Server Stats
O/S: Windows 2003 Small Business Server Standard (all updates +sp)
NIC: One gigabit (know win2003 recommends 2)
Hardware: Hugly over the minimum spec!!
MSDE: 3* instances (2 pre installed - SBSMonitoring, SharePoint and 1 user defined that needs sharing)
Thanks so much for any help, background information on group policies and alike would be nice to know as well, but don't worry too much about that!
Hi,
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am working on a windows application (C#) that utilizes ODBC to acces paradox tables (works fine thought this would be the problem database) and a WinMobile database(.sdf) in order to sync table records.

Hi
My application :
On PC : Access application + Access DB
On PocketPC : Embedded Visual Basic 3.0 application + PocketAccess DB
I synchronise my DBs through ActivSync.
It runs good before Windows Mobile 5.
My customers asked me for new PocketPC with this application, so I bought some new PocketPCs : but as I see, syncronisation with Access is no more supported.
So what are my solutions ?
My customer wait for there PocketPC, so I need a quick solution, I don't want to rewrite all my application now.
My application run before WM5, so now I don't want to have to pay for a Visual Studio .Net, some SQL Server, etc ....
Please, what are the solutions that won't cost me more than the time that have already lost with this new Windows Mobile 5 ?

Is there a way to control some of the windows application log settings from within the logging process of a package. Specifically the 'source' parameter which comes out as 'SQLISPackage' which i'd like to be the actual name of the package which wrote to the log, and similarly 'Category' which comes out as 'none' and I'd prefer to assign something more meaniful ?

I have to search the keyword from windows application using dtSearch. when user enter the list of keywords in UI, i have to connect to dtSearch tool and based on the output return, the matched keyword should be added to database table.
Now, i have problem in connecting this tool from my application.
Thanks in advance.
Hi there, i am building a mobile app using vs 2008, the app has about 8 - 12 forms that collect data.. i am thinking of
i am trying to decide how i want to save the temporary work data while the user fills the data collection forms.
when the user selects to create a new report, i will
create a new xml file...
as user moves from form to form, i will update the file
when the user has finished filling up all the data i will create a transaction and insert the data into the sql ce database and delete the file...
i will be using sql ce 3.5
i think it supports transactions
i think it also supports identity.... i am using sql management studio 2005 standalone , so i cannot visually modify the 3.5 sdf.,..,. is there a tool for 2008 that will let me visually modify the table(s)? i dont want to use the 2008 feb community edition...
is there a better way to do this? should i skip the xml and go directly into sql ce insert (for the first record creation) and updates? i think this will be a performance killer on a win mob devilce (5.0)
p.s. i cannot store data in a class, and then commit the class to the transaction because if the application crashes i will loose class data, so xml file will be needed.,
suggestions?
I try to install MSDE as a new instance (SQL2) on my computer with Windows 2000 Professional, but a problem occurs and instalaltion does not complete successfully. I am an administrator of the computer. The application log contains the following errors descriptions:

The error message is "Setup failed to configure the server.Please refer the error logs for more information". No error log can be found on the machine at the time of installation. Please let me know if anyone else has encountered this problem?
Is it possible to install MSDE 2000 on 64-bit Windows Vista(Build 5308)?

Hi there,
I have a question which I put the company that host my website but I didnt get a conclusive answer. Maybe someone here will be able to advise or help me with my situation.
I want to build a database that I will run on my local server and the front end of this will be run using a windows application. I have a website which I run the database on the remote server. What I would like to do is to be able to synchronize certain tables between the two databases (such as updating products table, or orders table). I am using sql server 2005 and I am using the sql server management studio to access my database on the remote server. I did notice there is a synchronzie button. I also came across some 3rd party tools. Not sure if that is the way to go.
If anyone as done this before or can give me any suggestions, I would be delighted.
Thanks

We have always used sql servwer login to the servers for all our applications for out intranet apps
And we use windows auth to do development
So when we do that we logon to wuindows, and then just connect, with no password required
But how does an application "logon" to connect to a database
Is it just in the connection string just like sql server auth
or is it different?
Hi,
I'm writing a windows application using VB.NET 2005 that must connect to Pocket PC via ActiveSync to read data from SQL Server CE. This is my code:

cnn.Open()
But I get the following error:
The path is not valid. Check the directory for the database. [ Path = Mobile DeviceStorage CardProgram FilesMyAppMobileDB1.sdf ]

I'm a database newbie, trying to decide whether to create an SQL Server or Windows Application project that uses SQL Server 2005 Express. As I understand it, the advantage of an SQL Server project is that the app deploys somehow as part of the database. If that's the case, how would I handle the scenario where the database has been updating at customer site and I need to install just a new release of the software? Would I be better of creating a Windows Application project and connecting to the database explicitly? Thank you.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've read that microsoft.applicationblocks.data for .net v2 can't be deployed to a mobile app, and my experience bears that out. So I 'm wondering if there are application blocks for windows mobile 5 that would know how to both talk to sql server mobile and sql server 2005. I see OpenNetCF has a port but as far as I can tell, they only address sql server mobile and not talking to a sql server 2005 remote database. I can use the OpenNetCF version for my sql server mobile requirements, but I'm hoping there is an encapsulation of sqlclient calls for communication with my server db.

Hi everyone,
Every time that my application throws an .DTSX file I don't know who or what is writing on eventviewer.application if failed or successful.
Execute method implements a customized class which implements IDTEVENTS but I promise that in any place of my code I'm writing that information.
app.execute(nothing,... MYEVENTS)
Public Class MYEVENTS
Implements IDTEVENTS
..
..
..
..
All the methods are declared although empty but OnQueryCancel which is customized.
How to disable this behaviour?
I'm concerned for that because of we could launch (when it's gonna in live) 300 or 400 packages on-daily basis!!!
Thanks in advance and regards,
I have a windows based software application that connects remotely to a sql server 2005 and calls stored procedures. There is someone that I work with that is cautioning the company strongly that this is a bad thing to do in terms of security. Isn't this a very common thing to do? Assuming that the SQL Server installation is setup appropriately. Is this a bad practice?

Hello!
I've been creating a vb.net 2005 windows form application using Everywhere and it has been going pretty well. However, I haven't had much luck finding any help on how to deploy my Everywhere database file(s) and Everywhere itself. To install redistribute Everywhere, can I just add the the 8 .dlls found in the Everywhere directory into my VS setup project? Also, what database file(s) do I need to deploy in my windows setup?
Thanks!
Hi all,
I think I can do this, just want to check
Can I have an sql server database (mdf file) on a server and allow windows applications at different site manipulate the database.
As far as I am concerned the only thing that needs to be configued is the connection string..is this correct.
[i would rather use windows applications rather than asp pages]
If I can, the best way to manipulate the database is to use stored procedures. How would I do the following to create and execute the following proposed procedure:
Insert data into a table
Update another table as a result
Execute the store procedure on a form to execute these two statements
Thanks in advance

from with in an application using the report view can you puase a report that is taking a long time to complete and then at a latter date resume where you paused the report.
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'm working on a project where I have to create a password protected form for teachers to submit reports about students.
Originally I was going to use asp.net to create the form, but unfortunately the server I'm working with will not be granted asp functionality in the allotted timeframe.
To solve this issue I have another idea. So I will ask a few questions to help with research before I begin coding.
Is it possible to create a windows application that can connect to an access database hosted online? The windows app will need to be be able to update, insert, and select information from the database.
There is only going to be about 30-40 people using this windows application once or twice a week.
Thus I envision taking a password protected access database and dropping it onto a server.
The windows application will have the online location of the database embeded into the code. (connection string)
From there on out coding for the windows application should be the exact same as if the database was hosted locally on the computer, correct?
Also,
1. What is a good way to check and make sure the computer is connected to the internet before my application tries to access the database?
2. Are there any drastic security issues with this process that I should think about. The database will only be password proected, and the windows application will take a username/password from the user and check it against a table before they are able to submit info to the database.
I just need to be pointed in the right direction for this project.
Thanks.
