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?
View 3 RepliesI 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'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 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.
I have a working SQL Server 2005 Express on my PC. Now I want to use Business Intelligence Development Studio so that I can create reports using SSRS. But I am not sure what to do. I assume I have to download this module. But the only things I see when I search is the entire SQL Server 2005 Express. I do not want to do this and wipeout my present databases. Can someone list the steps I need to follow to get this working on my PC?

I have just finished developing a website in ASP.NET 3.5 with database as SQL SERVER Express edition (Free one).
I am looking for a hosting provider who supports SQL SERVER Express Edition.
Most of the hosting provide RESTRICTS THE SIZE OF SQL SERVER DATABASE UPTO 200MB ONLY.
However I know that SQL SERVER Express edition can save data upto 2GB size.
tell me about a web-hosting provider who allows SQL SERVER Express edition of size 2GB ?
I am fine with shared hosting.
I just installed SQL Server 2008 Management studio Express on my Vista machine.i tried connecting to local machine using :
.sqlexpress, (local)sqlexpress, or .SQLExpress, MyPCNAMESQLExpress
nothing is working, getting this error:
-----------------------------
Cannot connect to PC-NAMESQLEXPRESS. 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)
----------------------------
I'd like to learn more about MS Business Intelligence Development Studio. I'm doing this on my own, so I'd like to keep my software costs down. It's my understanding that BIDS comes with the download for SQL Server, but is used in Visual Studio (by creatign a BIDS project). Is this accurate? My question is - Is it possible to get a working copy of BIDS by downloading SQL Server Express and Visual Studio Express?
View 2 RepliesI have SQL server management studio express install on one machine.
I am able to connect to that machine or able to ping that machine from my computer.
I have code which return me the SQL server instances on same network. Using that I am able to get that SQL server instance. I have configured SQL express to access remote connection. i.e.
Configured SQL express to accept named / TCP IP instance connection. Started Browser service.
My machine settings My machine has been configured to set dynamic IP address using DHCP protocol
When I am trying to connect to above mentioned SQL server I am getting error that "Failed to connect SERVER NAME\SQLEXPRESS".
But if I configured my machine with manual IP address and default gateway I am able to connect to same SQL server.
I got the solution to connect to that server but I don't know why I am facing such problem. And also let me know that is the solution I am using is correct or not?

I am trying to install just Reporting Services one a different server than the one that hosts the SQL Server 2005 database. Can someone point me to any type of documentation or a step by step instruction that can help. One more thing, none of the two machines is part of a domain.
View 2 RepliesI'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 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.
This may seem simple but for some reason I am having a problem.
I am trying to install SQL Server Express 2005 on Windows XP Service Pack 2 which has not been online for a while.
Everytime I've tried it has told me that it doesn't meet the minimum requirements. I am not sure if its because I am sick and dazed out.
