SQL Server :: Merge Replication Setup With EXPRESS 2005 On Windows 7 Professional
Oct 20, 2010
I have a web app that runs on local and use merge replcation using sql server 2005 standard on the server and sql express 2005 on clients on XP. As you know, XP Pro laptops are getting hard to find. We are trying to change to Windows 7 Pro x64. I installed SQL Express 2005 and I don't see a subscription on "Sync Center" after I created local subscription using SSMS. I normally see the subscription in Synchronize in XP Pro right away.
I googled about this issue and not really have a good solution. There is one link saying Windows 7 not supporting Express 2005 anymore. [URL] If so, I would like to know what would be a solution such as can I use Sql Express 2008 R2 instead of Sql Express 2005 for client even if the server is still SQL Server 2005 Standard edition. We are planning to upgrade, but we need to hire 5 to 10 people now. My boss does not want us to keep using XP Pro.
I have developed one software in C# and the database used is sql server 2005. I have completed the software but now I want to provide setup in a autorun CD to my customer. I have prepare setup but I am not able to deliver my database along with my .net code. What I want to do is when user will install my project on his computer using the CD I am suppose to provide, it should install SqlServer Enterprise edition and should use this database. It may means that, setup should create database on the user computer.
In Sql server 2005 transactional replication in which multiple branches have publishers and one Subscriber at central server.
At above scenario when publishers executes query at that time if central server's subscriber machine off or sql server 2005 services inactive then and after that publishers query execute operation completed and after that subscriber machine on or sql server 2005 services active then how to manage data or balance data in central server subscriber machine ?
After I installed Visual Studio 2008 Standard edition, then I upgrade "SQL Server Express 2005" to "SQL Server Express 2008 SP2". Process upgrading SQL Server Express 2008 was going succesfully (none of the process was fail).
But when I create a New Website I could not add a new item "SQL Server Database" into my website file. Because Visual Studio always rejected any new "SQL Server Database" by giving message below (underline):
This server version is not supported. Only servers up to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 are supported.
I used SQL SERVER 2008 R2 express as my web development database and I set its compatibility level to 2005. Unfortunately this database cannot be be attached to SQL server 2005. Are there any other options?
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 was being used along with SQL Express for website development on the Operating System, Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition of Intel Xeon CPU @ 2.13 GHz (2 Processors) containing 12 GB RAM with 64-bit Operating System. Website was developed along with the databases of SQL Express with the help of Visual Studio. Whether the developed website along with the databases may be used on the Operating System, Windows 7 of 64-bit? The website will used within Intranet. Which Operating System and configuration to be used for the Intranet Website?
In machine XPSP2, I tried to install SQL SErver 2005 express edition (downloaded from the microsoft site) - after mode selction form (Windows/SQL server authentication) - system restarted, automatically.Again restarted, Again restarted,Again restarted,Again restarted,a 1000 times or more.finally I unplugged the system from the UPS
i have create My WebSite in asp.net 3.5 and SQL SERVER Managment Studio 2005 EXPRESS , every thing Work GREAT with out any problem when i run it on LOCALHOST,
but my Big Problem Idont Know What The Steps RUN it On Server Specially:
1- i Have Create My OWN SQL Data Base file with its own Stored Procedures, and its in the Same Folder of My Project.
2-whats about WebConfig? what i should write in it?
I'm used to working with visual studio 2005 team version which included C# and j++ as part of the install suite. I'm now at a new company and their professional version has only the Business Intelligence Studio for SQLServer installed. Is there a way for me to download the web development, C# and asp.net support into this visual studio instance? I'm limited to 2005 due to licensing restrictions.
I'd just gotten the MVC application I'm working on to connect to the database when the machine it was on went down. Now, for development purposes, I've installed the database on my local SQL Server 2005 Express installation. I jumped through all the hoops for getting the connection set up. I have:
Opened the Surface Area Configuration and set it to allow Local and remote connections. In the same area, I set the SQL Server Browser to Automatic startup and started it. In SQL Server Mgmt Studio Express, under Security/Logins, I added a user with a Server Role of 'sysadmin' and in User Mapping for the specific database in question I checked 'db_owner'. I also restarted the services and then rebooted the machine when restarting the services didn't work. But it's still giving me 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Here's the weird part. I can open SQL Server Mgmt Studio Express and log in with the user I created as described above. Login is successful, and I have complete access to the database. In Server Explorer, I've set up a connection to this exact same database without any problems. I can connect to it and list the tables, get their data, etc., no problem. I can also use the "osql" command to connect to and retrieve data from the same database.
It seems safe to say that the database is definitely there and can be connected to. So, I thought there must be something wrong with my connection string. Since the Server Explorer is connecting to and displaying data from the database, I copied its connection string, which looks a lot like this:
Data Source=myServerSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=myDatabase;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=SwinglineUser;Password=***********
Of course, the Password has been replaced with the actual password (just in case someone thought I might have forgotten that step). So, absolutely everything I try connects to the database without the slightest issue, except for my MVC application. I'm not sure what else to try. Could there be some difference in how to set things up if you're connecting to a local server?
I have 2 machines on a domain. The first machine has IIS 6. 0 inatalled on it, whereas the second machine has published web content.
On the local machine ie. Web server i have configured the website like "A Share located on another computer" Eg: //Machine2/Application1. The pubished web content is inside a shared folder on the remote machine. Finally when i run the application in browser(IE 7.0) i get the following error.
Server Application Unavailable
The web application you are attempting to access on this web server is currently unavailable. hit the "Refresh" button in your web browser to retry your request.
Administrator Note: An error message detailing the cause of this specific request failure can be found in the application event log of the web server. review this log entry to discover what caused this error to occur.
The Error in the Windows event viewer is as follows:
I have created a web app using Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition and have come to the point where I need to publish the site onto my server (which is running window server 2008). I found that the publish function is not limited in the express edition, so published the app to a local file and FTP'd the contents across to my server. I then setup a website through the servers IIS manage and pointed it to the folder containing the FTP'd files.
My question is, how do I run the app? Do I need to point to a specific file?
I have tried to view a number of the files in browser directly from the IIS but keep getting the same standard connection error i.e. "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage"
I have never used IIS Manager before and I can't find a resource which gives me a step by step guide to setting up a new site which has been created by Visual Studio 2008 Express Edition, are there any config changes needed.
I am facing one problem with data connection in my MVC2 project. I couldn't able to connect to SQL SERVER Database, the error says "Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the [URL]
1. Just create a new MVC project 2. I did right click on App_Data and choose Add new item 3. Selected the "Data" option at left hand side and gave a name for the mdf file which is same as my current database mdf file name. 4. After that, clicked on Add button. 5. Then i got above error messages. 6. So do i need to install SQL Server Express 2005?
I tried in VS2008... Tools -> /Options -> Database Tools -> Data Connections, and changing "SQL Server Instance Name (blank for default)" to connect to my instance name but still it didn't work. I couldn't connect to the database from visual C#. I have read several threads about it but I couldn't get any good solution that can solve my issue.
I have my entire database for current application in sql express 2005.
I wish to change my db to SQL Server 2008 after i read online that SQL Express is not supported by godaddy.
What steps should I take in order to do so? Do I manually have to create tables in the sql server 2008 database with the same properties as in SQL Express 2005.
I do not have much data in the tables so that is not an issue.
i have using sql server 2005 express managment studio, i have create my database and every thing just i want to extact Database and attach it to My asp.net 3.5 Project how?
I recently purchased a new computer running Windows 7 Home, and after installing Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express, I am unable to connect to the database using the "Connect To Database" wizard. I get the following error:
"This server version is not supported. You must have Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 or later."
The version of SQL Server 2005 Express I've downloaded is directly from the Microsoft site and I also downloaded the SP3 to be used with Windows 7, x64 (which I presumed was a later version of the database). I am able to connect to the database programatically, but I would like to get the wizard functionality working as well (as I am unable to add a database to my projects, using the "Add New Item" wizard either).
I'm completely new to both VB.NET and JSON, and I'm trying to figure out how to do SQL queries towards an SQL 2005 Express server and format the return value to JSON. I got the queries working using this (perhaps very newbie-like) code;
Imports System Imports System.Data Imports System.Data.SqlClient Imports System.Web.UI Imports System.Web.UI.WebControls Partial Public Class SQLConnect Inherits System.Web.UI.Page 'Defines SQL variables Dim con As New SqlConnection Dim cmd As New SqlCommand Dim dr As SqlDataReader Dim ReadData As String Dim i As Integer Sub Click(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) 'Define SQL address, database, username and password con.ConnectionString = "Data Source=localhostSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=tempdb;User ID=tesst;Password=test" Try 'Initialize connection con.Open() 'Specify SQL query cmd = New SqlCommand("SELECT * FROM Member", con) 'Execute query, dump result array into variable dr = cmd.ExecuteReader() messageLabel.Text = "<br />Connection established<br />" While (dr.Read) i = 0 For i = 0 To dr.FieldCount - 1 'Dump query results into a variable ReadData += dr.Item(i).ToString Next End While 'Print query results messageLabel2.Text = ReadData 'Close connection con.Close() Catch ex As Exception messageLabel.Text = "<br />Connection failed<br />" End Try End Sub End Class
I have been looking at this, and I would love to see some code examples using this class or any other good method.
I created an MDF file in VS 2008 in the Solutions Explorer window and can see the file path for this file as:
C:Documents and SettingsAdminMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2008WebSitesAddSQLRecordsApp_Data
But when I try to add this MDF file in SQL Server 2005 Express, I click the Add button but cannot find this exact path above. How do I find this? I am running this on a 32-bit XP OS.
I've used the WebPI to install SQL Server Express 2008 and VWD2008 SP1. I made sure to install SQL Server first then install VWD. Whenever i use VWD now though and try to add a new SQL Server Database to my website i get the error message "Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly."
I'm a little stuck as to where to proceed with this error. I've un-installed everything web development related and re-installed and still get the same error. I was under the impression that VWD2008 SP1 required SQL Server Express 2008 and wouldn't work with SQL Server Express 2005 so can't understand why it now wants it to be installed.
I am trying to transfer some tables and stored procedures from SQL Server 2005 to Express 2008. I have tried using Management studio, but it isn't working....
I have installed VS Team System 2008 from a dvd on my computer,the setup has installed every thing but failled the installation of SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.The setup terminates my this error"An error has occured during the installation,Could not install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition". Then I have tried to install sql server 2005 through SQLEXPR.exe. But this .exe file has failed the installation of SQL Server Database Services and MSXML6. Do anybody have any idea why sql server 2005 is not installing on my machine? P.S I haven't installed any other version of VS except this VS 2008.
