View 2 RepliesI have a mdf database in my computer. And I have sql management studio 2005 installed. I would like to mange the mdf database with this program and I do not know how.
View 3 RepliesI 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 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 unable to restore database in form of .bak files using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express.It gives following error message:
Too many backup devices specified for backup or restore; only 64 are allowed.
RESTORE HEADERONLY is terminating abnormally. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
For my database I create a new query and wrote
select * from dbname
using SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005. Saved it by name SQLQuery1.sql on the desktop. Now I would like to call this query from C# code when an ASP.NET button is clicked and display the results in a gridview. How do I call the query? Can I tell Visual Studio 2008 to please execute the query stored in 'sqlquery1.sql' ? Where do I store the results so that I can bind them the display controls like a gridview, or traverse the data? This is a website in C#, ASP.NET, Visual Studio 2008, and database is on the same computer using SQL Server 2005 Express
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 have installed Visual Studio 2010 ultimate (trial version) on my PC,it's working fine but i am getting issue with sql server 2005,it's not working now.
I m using SQL Server 2005 Express edition.The error when i am trying to connect sql server with windows authentication is
"This version of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express can only be used to connect to SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 servers. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionDlg)".
I have an ASP.NET 3.5 app with a SQL 2005 Express .mdf database file in its App_Data folder. Lets call that Foo.mdf. On its own the ASP.NET app can connect to the database with no problems. So far so good. Then, if I install Sql Server Management Studio Express on the server and start it, it finds the local SQLEXPRESS instance and connects to it, but doesn't show Foo.mdf in the list of databases.
So I try and Attach Foo.mdf by right-clicking on databases and selecting Attach.. and finding the .MDF. This fails with a vague error:
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 32(error not found)
while attempting to open or create the physical file
'C:inetpubwwwrootFooAppApp_DataFoo.mdf'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5123)
If I stop my ASP.NET site in IIS, then the attach does work, but then when I restart my ASP.NET app, it can't connect to Foo.mdf. So it looks like SQL Express 2005 will only let either my app or Management Studio connect. This seems really crap - surely Sql Express should allow more than one connection? I was expecting it to behave like regular Sql Server.
I follow the instruction of installing a new feature with the application SQLManagementStudio_x86_ENU.exe and I get to a fail telling me that VS 2008 needs to be upgraded to SP1.
This I have done several times with the final message saying successfully installed yet 'About' shows only
Microsoft Visual Studio 2008
where can i download profiler from? i can't find it on google.

2-whats about WebConfig? what i should write in it?
the only database which appear are the ones which are in the system databases folder "in sql server manage...."
why doesnot vs08 pick up the db which has been created in databases folder using "sql serv man...."
I'm a newbie in development, and i'm facing a grave concern here. Sql Server Management Studio (2008) does not seem to be able to attach a database that i've already created in Sql Server 2005 express within my ASP.NET application. When I try to attach the database, by clicking "Attach" after right clicking the Database note in object explorer, I get to see a dialog box with an Add button. I then click that button, and try to navigate to the database, and I'm simply not able to reach that folder!!! The folder containing the databse physically exists, but i can't see it when i'm trying to browse to it.This is a Windows 7 (home edition) laptop, with VS 2008.
View 6 RepliesI'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 RepliesWould something be missing, not working, or confusing if I do this? First, install SQL Server 2008 Standard, and SP1. Then, install Visual Studio 2010 Professional, unchecking SQL Server 2008 Express option. Or would I need to fix any configurations afterwards?

View 2 RepliesI've been working on a website using Visual Studio 2008 that uses URL Rewriting. Being that the integrated web server in VS2008 does not support extension mapping, I'm using IIS in Windows XP for my testing. The problem I'm at now is that I'm considering hosting the site under IIS7. Using Integrated Pipeline mode under IIS7 has a big advantage in that I can force all file extensions (and directory requests) through the rewrite engine with a setting in the web.config file instead of having to configure a custom ISAPI handler in IIS. My problem is in testing this before trying to deploy.
Does anyone know if the integrated web server in Visual Web Developer 2010 Express supports integrated pipeline mode? Specifically, if I add the "runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests" attribute to the "modules" section under "system.webServer" in "Web.Config", will all requests get piped through the asp.net engine?
I tried to connect to the SQL Server (2000) with the VS 2010 Express. I got error saying "This server version is not supported. You must have Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or later".
View 1 RepliesI jsut installed SQL server and management studio on my PC. For management studio, I created a database with tables. However, When I have data connection for SQL server in visual studio express, I couldn' t see the database I created.
View 1 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).
