I have 2 connection strings in my web.config file, and I would like to select which one to use, from code.Currently I have this:
asp:SqlDataSource
ID="SqlDataSourceDelegateServices"
runat="server"
[code]...
Is it possible to use a pre-existing ConnectionString in this construction?
myConnection = New SqlConnection("server=localhost;" & "database=pubs;Trusted_Connection=Yes")

i am trying to call a SP from SQL Server in asp.net app, but it keep crashing every time it hit
'cmd.Connection.Open();' ,,, it give me this message
"The ConnectionString property has not been initialized "
[Code]....
[Code]....
why this first connection works but the second doesn't?

I'm trying to use <asp:FileUpload> to upload images and as far as I know you have to use <asp:SqlDataSource> to do it but I need to create the connections string using entries stored in a database.
In my project i use in webconfig
<appSettings> add
key="ConnectionString"
value="server=192.168.0.1;database=database;uid=usr;pwd=;"/>
</appSettings>
Use this key on .vb page -
Public constr As
String = ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString")
dim cnn As new SqlConnection(constr)
Now i need to create conditional report where user select parameters from Dropdownlist and based on that Report is generate on web page. I tried so much with the help of
http://www.aspfree.com/c/a/ASP.NET/Binding-Data-to-the-ReportViewer-Control-Dynamically-in-ASPNET-20/1/ article but noluck. The data is display when i select the SELECT query from wizard while add dataset, but i want to do it dynamically coz webserver is located somewher else. Configuration is MSSQL server 2000, W2K3, VS 2005 Professional.
I did a Crystalreport projects with vb6 with ado but i really dont know how to exactly dynamically generate conditional report in Reportviewer.
I want to setup the connectionstring of the SqlDatasource of a dropdown list at runtime, eg. Page Load event. I have install MySQl ODBC driver, System DSN name as "MySQL_Employee" If I have an entry in Web.config:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="mysqlConnection" connectionString="DSN=MySQL_Employee;UID=john;description=connection to employee database;server=empServer;database=employee;port=3306;" providerName="System.Data.Odbc"/>
</connectionStrings>
my web-app working well locally, but since i uploaded it and my DB, i keep receiving this Error :

I checked my Username , Password and its Permissions for thousands time, and everything seems to be alright. I developed the Website by ASP.Net / C# (VS2008) and SQLServer2008 and I guess the problem is with ConnectionString, below you can find my ConnectionString:
Server=(local)SQLEXPRESS;User ID=myusername;password=mypass;Database=mydb;Persist Security Info=True
I encrypted my connectionstring and store at web.config file. Then I bind Gridview with sqldatasource control, cannot bind because of sqldatasource don't know the(encrypted) connectionstring.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to set up a simple content management system for two different sites, which are both stored on the same server (my own, not hosting, if it matters:)).
Both sites are basically the same, built upon a similar (but seperate) xsd (Typed DataSet) file, and read data from different databases using the tableadapters in the xsds.
Obviously, i have the same xsd setup in my management system application that need to hook up to the relevant database (after user authentication) and use the tableadapters to access the data and allow the forms in the management system to modify the data.
When i had a single site, the connection string was stored in the web.config file and after logging in to the management system, all forms could access the database.
Now i have two site and i need to setup the connection string in the xsd dynamically after user validation based on the relevant site to edit.
My question is, how do i set the xsd's connection string dynamically (after user logs in, the function returns the specific connectionstring and stores it in a Session variable)
i have some websites and one part of all websites is the same and it work with dataset i got an ide to creat a code projrct to handel that part and i use it in all websites the problem is the websites not use the same connectionstring but the connectionstring name can be same. i need to set this code project to read the connectiostring from the website web.config file.
View 6 RepliesI'm creating a multi-tenant Asp.Net MVC 3 Web app, and using EF4.1 code first for the db model.For development I'm happy to use SqlServerCE in App_Data, and for production this will move to Sql Server 2008.
Say my context is called "MyModels", by default code-first looks for a connection string called "MyModels" in Web.config. This can be told to use a file in App_Data or changed to access a database in SQL2008. All fine so far.
But because of multi-tenancy, I'd like the SqlServerCE filename to match the unique id of the tenant (so App_Data would have "client_x.sdf", "client_y.sdf"; Sql Server 2008 would have separate databases). I can't work out how to direct to these different databases.
I've tried MyModels inheriting from DbContext and supplying a connection string (using a 'placeholder' conn string in Web.config and replacing "{clientId}" with the unique id), and I've also tried setting the connection string in the MyModels constructor:
base.Database.Connection.ConnectionString = xxx;
but this never seems to work. I always get the following error:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
( it's not yet 'configured' to use SqlServerCE, and so is trying to connect to Sql Server)
Tracing the code, Database.Connection.ConnectionString hasn't been read from Web.config at this point, so I can't search and replace that, and, possibly, it's getting overwritten by the 'placeholder' conn string later in the pipeline.I reckon this must be quite straightforward and I just can't find the 'hook'.
I know this might be a very basic question, but maybe thats why im having problems finding the answer. Right now I'm creating database connections in my source files by doing something like this:
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=...Password=...);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(String.Format("SELECT * FROM Table;"), con);
con.Open();
SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();
But this means that if I choose to change databases it will be a major pain in the ass. Do you guys know how to use the connection string from a web.config file instead?
Can the select command of a SqlDataSource be given by code in the code behind file. Also by calling the SqlDataSource.Select can the select statement be executed?
View 3 RepliesI want to bind an ObjectDataSource to a property in my asp page and I want to do it in the page's aspx code, not in code-behind. I've already done it in code-behind, as follows:
[Code]....
I'd prefer to get rid of the ugly code-behind and just do this in mark-up. Something like
[Code]....
This gives me a run-time error: Cannot create an object of type 'System.Object' from its string representation 'SelectedBook' for the 'DataSource' property.Is there a way of doing this declaratively and not in code-behind? Further, what if what I want is to actually use a child property of the property in question? For example, if my Book object has a ReaderComments collection, can I databind to it decaratively in the aspx mark-up?

I am using the SQLDataReader to execute a Stored Procedure that accepts two parameters (BuildingTID and Department) to return the appropritae Value in my case The Director of the Department. My problem is I get the following error when I run the code that I added below for review. Let me also add that the user is selecting the values that I am using for the stored procedure from 2 DropDownLists. I am getting it when I try to assign the value that is in the Department DropDown
list to the first parameter.
Dim myParm As SqlParameter = getDirectorsCMD.Parameters.Add("@BuildingTID", SqlDbType.Int, 15).Value = (ddlDepartment.SelectedValue)
Also obviously there are more issues with my code than just the error because the datareader records property is false meaning I am not returning a row
i need to get my listview there are made on a LinqDataSource to update the db before it running my code i have made in my update botton. how do i force the update to happen ind c# ? my code in my update botton looks like this
protected void UpdateButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
getting the Parameters declared in an sql function in the C# code. We can actually get the parameters from a Stored Procedure by giving SqlCommandBuilder.DeriveParameters
Similarly is there any way to get the Parameters from the SQL Function.

I have a web project that sends out a customized email after certain user events (like a status change). I also have an SSIS package on the database that pulls in data from one database and updates another database with that data. I want to be able to compare the data and if a particular field's data for that record is different between the two databases is different, I want to be able to use the dll I created for the web app to send the appropriate email.
View 2 RepliesIf I have a Linqdatasource that isn't connected to a a bound control on my page how do I use the data source to read data in the code behind. ie
var query = (from x in linqdatasource select x)
What I actually want to do is create a data array (myArray) within the code, read all of the data from the linqdatasource (selecting 1 field to form tableDataArray), then compare the two arrays and then write (insert) those into in myArray that are not already in the datasource to the datasource (ie execute an insert back on the datasource).
ive an access database with a table, in this table there is only one data column and one counter column (id, pet) i want to draw random a record. Reading on the web i came with this SQL solution: "SELECT TOP 1 tab_pets.pet FROM tab_pets ORDER BY Rnd(id)" and it works perfectly.
The problem is while using this statement in my code behind (in a class) as it draw always the same record, hence generates the same random each time. I though that the access Rnd() function would be handled by the access driver and not by my application, how can i resolve this?
