View 2 RepliesI'm using an ODBC connection to connect a SQL 2005 database to my ASP.NET app in Visual Web Developer Express. I'm finding that the expected functionality that tutorials review does not work for ODBC connected databases the same way as it does for SQL databases created in the Web Developer. For example, I can't use stored procedures because the option to create one is disabled in the Web Developer, and if I create the stored procedure in SQL Server Management Studio Express, it doesn't show up in Web Developer because Web Developer only finds the system stored procedures, not the user-defined ones. I've seen other cases as well where database management options in Web Developer don't work with ODBC databases.
Am I missing something in my setup, or is there an inherent limitation with ODBC connected databases? Or, is this a limitation with using the Express versions of these development tools?
I would like to connect oracle via ODBC. I downloaded the dll and add as reference.
Here is the sample code:
Dim cn As OdbcConnectioncn = New OdbcConnection("PROVIDER=MSDAORA; DATA SOURCE=aaa; USER ID=aaa; PW=aaa;")
But getting this error "ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
how to connect ASP to MySQL database. I have already install MySQL in my localhost, Add a connection through Data Source (ODBC) in ctrl panel and test connection succeed. Now I want to show the query on my default.aspx page so that I can do the insert / update / delete my table data in MySQL.
View 1 RepliesI have built an ASP.NET classic application that references an ODBC connection to a DBISAM database.
When I try to connect to the same database in a MVC2 application I do not see any option to select an ODBC Data Source.
1. I right-click on my Models folder and select Add -> New Item
2. Choose "Data" on the left panel
3. Select ADO.NET Entity Data Model than click "Add"
Options were:
ADO.NET Entity Data Model
DataSet
LINQ to SQL Classes
SQL Server Database
XML File
XML Schema
XSLT File
4. Select "Generate from database..... click "Next"
5. Here I am presented with a "Choose Your Data Connection" screen. When I click the "New Connection" button I am given a "Choose Data Source" screen.
6. I am only presented with the following options on the "Choose Data Source" screen:
Microsoft SQL Server
Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5
Microsoft SQL Server Database File
<other>
7. This is where I expected to see ODBC as one of my options. What do I need to do to access ODBC?

my webserver is in the DMZ. The Database in the intranet. For connection from webserver to database the following entry is made in the odbc connection "TCPIP BCAST=NO;HOST=Intranet.Firma.local,Intranet_Spiegel.Firma.local,Intranet_Arbiter.Firma.local;PORT=2639}"
how to get this options in the connection strings working, or how i must modify the entitiy framework connection string to use the odbc entry?
<add name="KA_Entities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/Models.KA_Model.csdl|res://*/Models.KA_Model.ssdl|res://*/Models.KA_Model.msl;provider=iAnywhere.Data.SQLAnywhere;provider connection string="UserID=user;Password=password;DataSourceName=Databasename""

I tried to use odbcfor the entity framework, but the Wizard always add the right .NET Provider and not the odbc
I have been developing my ASP.NET web pages to access the SQL database locally on my personal computer while using a "SqlConnection", but to access my SQL database on a host server, I must use a "OdbcConnection". I am mostly using LINQ to access data with a DataClassesDataContext, but sometimes I must use ADO with SqlConnection and SqlCommand. What must I do to convert my C# code in order to access data with ODBC 3.51?

In my windows application, i am listing the System DSN's configured on the remote machine in a combobox. Once i select the DSN and click on Connect button, i should be able to connect to the remote database. I am trying to open the connection to the database using ODBC but am getting the below error.

I am working on an asp webform that pulls from an ODBC datasource then puts the data in an sql server. Once the data is in the sql server several queries pull data from it to provide information for a report.
This is an example of what I am talking about
private
void ODBCpdEmployeeAb()
{
DataTable dt =
new
DataTable();
[Code]....
The first part gets the data from the ODBC connection and the next part stores it in an sql server table. The problem is I have these methods in the page load event of the webform so everytime it loads it just puts the exact same data in the sql server table which would then provide incorrect information on the report.
Is there a way to append the most recent data from the ODBC table to the sql server ?
I have created a web application and an SQL database using Web Developer 2010 Express. I have SQL Server 2008 and SQL Server Management Studio Express. In order to deploy the database to my hosting space I need to create a .BAK file from my new database. I think I can do this from with the Management Studio, but can't figure out how to get it to connect to the database. I have used Management Studio before to retore another SQL database and the only connection I see when I open the Management Studio is the old connection to the old database. How do I connect to my new database?

I moved to ASP.NET from PHP where the queries are run directly. So I always create Connection in the Page_Load Event, dispose it after I do all stuff needed, and access data with NpgsqlCommand. (Yes, I use Postgresql in my ASP.NET applications.)
After starting to learn ASP.NET MVC I was amazed how easy it is to access SQL with the LINQ to SQL thing. But... It works only with MS SQL. So my question is how to implement the same functionality in my applications? How to connect to databases easily?
I wrote my own wrapper classes for connecting to Postgresql. 1 class per a table.

So as you see the problem here is that with every INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE request I'm using Connect() method which connects to the database. I didn't realize how stupid it was before I had to wait for 10 minutes to have 500 rows inserted, as there were 500 connections to the database.Using pooling while connecting does help, but still making the connection and making the server check the pool during every single query is stupid.So I decided to move Connection property to a static DB class, and it didn't work either, because it's a really bad idea to store such objects as connections in a static class.I really don't know what to do know. Yes, there's an option of manullay creating the connections in every Page_Load event and close them in the end like I'm doing it right now.

View 29 RepliesI have already created the database for my website, however when i create the webforms such as a student sign up form i dont know how to connect the text boxes to the database to its relevant table, so data can be updated and deleted. I am aware of the grid view and form view tools but when using those tools I can't seem to move the labels and text boxes around the webpage for design purposes.

View 7 Repliesso this is my first Solution using the Entity Framework (EF). Here are my steps so far:
1) Created Database named: BSA with an owner of username/password (AspNetServicesUser/password)
2) Created Entity Data Model (EDM) in a separate project (contained within the same solution)
3) Created an ASP.NET Web Application with basic functionality (new project within the same solution)
4) Added Reference to the EDM in Web App and added Connection String to the EF
5) Decided I wanted ASP.NET Membership added to the Web App
6) Configured SQL Server for Application Services using aspnet_regsql.exe on BSA database
Now, I need to know:
a) How do I create the connectionString for the Web.config file in the WebApp?
Errors I receive:
I get this error using the ASP.NET Configuration Tool under the "Security" Tab:
Login failed for user 'AspNetServicesUser'.
I get this error using the ASP.NET Configuration Tool under the "Provider" Tab --> Select a single provider for all site management data --> Test
Could not establish a connection to the database.
If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider.

I've got a situation where it seems I am required to have an identity impersonate statement in my compiled web app, i.e. <identity impersonate="true" username = "mydomainmyusername" password ="xxx" /> The thing is, it is not required when running from Visual Studio and virtual web server, as everything works fine, but when I do not have the <identity> tag in the web.config file in my compiled web app, I get a connection error. Simply won't connnect to the database if the <identity> tag is not there. I'd rather just do away with this requirement, and have been looking through IIS for a solution, but can't seem to find any.
