SQL Server :: SSMS Express Cannot Connect To SQL CE4 Sdf FIle
Feb 8, 2011
I am playing around with WebMatrix ans SQL CE 4.0. I wanted to load up a SQL CE V4.0 db from an Access db.
Tried to connect SSMS Exp to SQL 4.0 sdf file (created in WebMatrix starter site template) and was rejected with the following error that SSMS Express is not yet "aware" of SQL CE V4.0):
Cannot connect to C:Users....App_DataStarterSite.sdf.
This is not a valid SQL Server Compact Database file or this file version is not supported by current SQL Server Compact Engine. (SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider)
[code]...
The sdf file is "a valid SQL Server Compact Database file" - it works fine in WebMatrix.
What do I need to do to make SQL CE 4.0 files kosher for SSMS Express? The error messages suggest that I need to update the SQL Server Compact ADO.NET Data Provider, however I might do that.

It works perfectly the first time I install SSMS 2008 Express and I can access my remote database. But, after I restart my machine and open an instance of SSMS the database node is missing.
Before:
After: [:(]
I tried refreshing the database folder but still nothing. I even uninstall but it's still the same.

I have a ASP project that I have done before and it was working fine with SQL Serve Express 2005. After formatting my PC, I installed first VS 2008 Pro and then SQL Server Developer 2008 and I'm testing on my laptop but I can't connect to database. After reading a couple of articles I knew that I can't use mdf file because I'm using SQL Developer so it needs another procedure to follow such as changing the parameters in Web.Config
Web.Config
<connectionStrings>
<add name="Connection" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Store.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>
I tried a lot of soultion like start SQL browser Service to be on but still didn't work, also I tried to change the instance name in VS in options but also didn't work with me.

I'm using MS Visual Web Developer 2010 Express to build a website that connects to a SQL server 2000 database. Is it possible to connect to SQL 2000 using providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"? I'm guessing not. Or am I limited to using providerName="System.Data.OleDb" ? And seems both connections are under this ADO.NET umbrella. confirm one way or the other ... I'm a bit confused.
From web.config:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="SubscrTypeConnectionString" connectionString="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=my-server-host;Persist Security Info=True;Password=123abcde;User ID=test;Initial Catalog=Apps"
providerName="System.Data.OleDb" />
</connectionStrings>
So I believe I need to use OleDbCommand calls. I've seen many examples to do gridview select/edit/delete using SqlClient but not OleDb calls in VB code. Links to sample code would be great.

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).

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'm having difficulties with a clean SQL Server 2008 + SP1 (64 bit) install. I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit with VS2010. The Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (KB968369) is installed via Windows Update. I installed SQL Server Management Studio (64 bit) via the Microsoft website. When I open SSMS and try to login with Windows Authentication to (local)/localhost/[computername] I get the following error:
[Code]....
I don't understand this because I opened the inbound/outbound ports for 1433/1434. As wel as inbound/outbound exceptions for the programs
%ProgramFiles%Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQL10.SQLEXPRESSMSSQLBinnsqlservr.exe
%ProgramFiles% (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90Sharedsqlbrowser.exe
The configuration manager is configured as follows: Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 1 (KB968369)

I have recently combined my aspnet membership database and main website database into one database file, I'm happy with the schemas, stored procedures etc. (This is a development project not yet a production project.)
My problem is that I can no longer simultaneously connect to the database from Visual Studio if a user is logged in to the website.
EG:
Scenario 1: No user is logged in to the website. I can go to the Data Connection window in VS, choose "Add Connection" and then inspect the contents and schemas of the database. This is fine.
Scenario 2: A user is logged in on the website. I try to connect to the website in VS and get the error:
"Cannot open user default database. Login failed. "
Scenario 3: I am connected to the database in VS and nobody is logged into the website. If someone tries to log into the website they get the following error:
Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.
So it seems from the above that there can be only one connection to the database at a time? However this was not the case before I combined the membership database with the main website database. I could always make changes as a user logged into the website and at the same time see those changes through the connection in Visual Studio.
