we've got a SQL Server 2005 which replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.5. Every 10 to 20 synchronisations we're getting the error mentioned above. A Soft reset of the device helps to make the synchronization working again.
Why is this error happening and how can we resolve this?
BTW, we've also running system that replicates with an SQL Server Compact 3.0 without having this problems.
I am using a Compact Framework 2.0 on a mobile 5.0 with a local Microsoft SQL Compact Edition 2005 database. The backend database is a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and I am trying to pull a 45000 rows table (the table has 2 varchars(8) forming a primary key and an INTEGER column).
Hi, I can't seem to find which SQL Server Compact Edition version is pre-installed on the Windows Mobile 6 rom. I guess it is 3.0, but I'm not sure about it. Another question is, if I use SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 by deploying the .dll files as part of my application's CAB installer, will this be a problem for Windows Mobile 5 or Windows Mobile 6? Thank you in advance,
I am attempting to install SQL Server 2005 on a Laptop with Windows 2003 Standard Edition.

The device I'm working on has a filesystem on compact flash, but we're concerned about burning it up with excessive writes. One solution might be to keep the SQL database in the the object store, perhaps dumping a copy out to the CF as backup. Any pointers as to how to accomplish this? If we were to keep the db in a file on the CF, what's the SQL Server CE behavior for writing to the file? Does it write every time a record is created/updated, or is there any ability to control when the data is flushed to the file?
Hello, How are you? I have a problem when I try to create a new connection with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from Visual Studio 2005 IDE. When I€™m going to choose the data source, the SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition provider doesn€™t appear in the list. I installed the SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from this page http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=%2085E0C3CE-3FA1-453A-8CE9-AF6CA20946C3&displaylang=en. In the additional information says by installing SQLServerCE31-EN.msi installs the provider (System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll) in the GAC (global assembly cache) and registers the OLEDB provider (sqlceoledb30.dll). So, I don€™t understand why couldn€™t I create a new connection with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition from Visual Studio 2005 IDE?
Hi I am interested in taking MCTS exam 70-431 for sql server 2005 implementation and maintainance. I have been reading the hardware requirements for the instalation of sql server versions and realise that enterprise and developer editions have same minimum requirements for the operation system. I understand that the Developer Edition includes all the functionality of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but it is licensed for use as a development and test system, not as a production server.
Also I undestand that the developer edition supports the Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 or later but the enterprise edition does not support this operating system. The evaluation/trial version is for the enterprise edition. Can I use the developer version of sql server 2005 for my practice exercises instead of using the trial version? I have all hardware requirements for the trial enterprise version except that I am using Microsoft windows Xp home edition version 2002 with SP2. I am trying to see if I can use the developer version of sql server 2005 as it is cheaper for me to buy this software than buying the new operating system for my computer. According to the microsoft book for the MCTS exam 70-431 there is a section which states that before you begin you should have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 running on your computer on an NTFS file system (NTFS) partition. Will I still be ok to use the book and be able to do all the tests in the book if i am using the developer version of sql server 2005 with my Microsoft windows Xp home edition than using the trial version which comes with the book?
Hi All ...I have been following the MS on-line tutorials to get replication setup between SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Compact Edition. I get to the point where I run the Configure Web Synchronization and it is running through the process where it is doing the automated configuration of the shared directory - assigning users etc.I have attempted this step with a user account that I expressly created for snapshots and with the Administrator account and get the following error message:* The operation completed successfully. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070000)At first, I thought this was a rights issue due to the fact that I was using an account that I manually created. However, by using the Administrator account (test only until I can figure this out) that should have removed any rights issues associated with accessing the shared directory where the snapshot will reside.Any help in getting this figured out will be greatly appreciated.David L. Collison Any day above ground is a good day!
==> Is there anything else missing if I intend to use it for development with Visual Studio 2005 (VC++)?
==> What is "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Developer SDK" compared to the one "SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition" I installed? Should I install it?
3- There is also a link, which btw doesn't work at all, that should allow me to download following item:
"Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Tools of VS 2005 sp1"
==> Not being able to have any infos about it, what is the use of it? Should I install it in my environment? If so, any working link where I can download it from?
4- I finally noted, while browsing through SQL Server 2005 CE books online, the following note:
The following programming models are supported by SQL Server Compact Edition:
ADO .NET, accessible by using C# or Microsoft Visual Basic
OLE DB, accessible by using Visual C++ option from within Visual Studio 2005
==> How come that CE is not accessible using ADO.NET model when using VC++?
My application uses Sql server 2005 Mobile edition and I want to change to
Sql server 2005 Compact edition.
I have an application that automatically upgrade new version of my software at users (customers sites) It is shipped on a memrory card (SD Card).
I want in my upgrade tool to install Sql server 2005 Compact edition so I do it by running the two cab files :
sqlce30.repl.wce5.armv4i.CAB and sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.CAB
It works ok but I want also to uninstall Sql server 2005 Mobile edition and I do not find out how to do it automatically, First I do not know how to find out if Sql server 2005 Mobile edition is installd and if so how to uninstall it.
I want to do it all automatcally in my upgrade utility because my customers do not know to do it manually by theself.
Second I want to know if I have to use the Sql server 2005 Compact edition Uprade tool to upgrade my clients old databases because the now application works ok without Upgrading the database.
Hi Can we use Top Clause in the Select statement while using SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition. If not, is there any other workaround available to achieve same results.
I want to learn if it is possible to develop applications for SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition using .NET Compact version 1.0. The major doubt is the possibility for version 1.0. It is reasonable to deliver SQL Compact Edition redistributables with an application, but this is not great to require ,NET 2.0.
I'm trying to use application designed for 32bit operating system on 64bit (Longhorn beta 2). This application requires SQL Server CE 2005, I installed it (x32) but the application still says that it isn't.
What can be the problem? I suggest the application cannot retrieve information about SQL Server CE installation. But maybe the reason is I need to install something like SQL Server CE for 64bit operating system? Is it present "in native"?
We have been using Sql Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.1 RDA synchronization method successfully on Sql Server 2000 database. Recently we moved the database to Sql Server 2005, sync doesn't work anymore, it just hangs on one table. On further investigation, we found out that it's the index on that table that causes this. We removed the index, it works fine. We are wondering the root cause, removing the index is not a solution for us. Any thoughts?. Thanks.
I have a computer thats running XP 64 bit version. I want to replicate between SQL server 2005 and SQL server 2005 compact edition. But it doesn't works. So i looked for a solution and i came to: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/912430 This page is telling me:
You cannot replicate data from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server Compact Edition by using the 64-bit version of IIS
Is that a problem that can be solved by not using a other Operating System?
Or can you maybe install a 32-bit IIS on XP 64 bit?
I have a SQL Server 2005 (build 9.0.3050) database with tables belonging to different schemas. I am in the process of developing a Windows Mobile 5.0 application that will work against this database, and I€™m planning to use Remote Data Access with SQL Server 2005 CE to synch data.
I have my RDA all set up and working correctly IIS-wise, and have no problem pulling a table from my database. However, when I attempt to push a modified table back to the database, I get an €˜Internal error: Failure setting up bindings, possibly caused by insufficient permissions.€™ error (which equates to error 28621: SSCE_M_BINDINGS), which according to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172898.aspx is an internal error which €œcannot be resolved by common troubleshooting techniques€?. The €˜insufficient permissions€™ is a red herring I think, since the problem persists even if the SQL Server login that is being used for RDA is in the sysadmin role.
I€™ve attempted to identify the problem by starting from scratch with a new database and a new table with a couple of test columns. With the table freshly created as dbo.TableName RDA works fine. However, when I create a schema and transfer the table to the schema, RDA push fails as above, so to me it looks like the schema is causing the problem.
Anyone any ideas about this? All help greatly appreciated!
I have a problem changing the language setting to swedish on sql server 2005 compact edition. The thing is that I'm using a language dependent format: '1998-02-28 14:23:05' (Numeric) when saving and I rather don't want to change this format, because it's a lot of work. (The default setting on the database seems to be us-english, which has the format month-day-year and there by gets wrong for me).
As I understand, this is detemined by the language settings on login. So I set this by using the 'locale identifier' (sv-SE) in the connection string to the CE database, but when I try to save the data, the datum is still interpreted as us-english format.
(The application I'm running have been upgraded from sql compacte edition 2.0 where this worked just fine, though without specifing any language settings in the connection string.)
OK I think I am missing something here. I have installed the newly released SQL Compact Edition, Server Tools, and Tools for VS SP1. According to the documentation you can do the following to create a SQL Compact Edition DB:
Creating a SQL Server Compact Edition database on the server
In SQL Server Management Studio, open Object Explorer.
In Object Explorer, click Connect, and then choose SQL Server Compact Edition.
In the Connect to Server dialog box, select <New Database€¦> from the Database file drop-down list.
In the Create New SQL Server Compact Edition Database dialog box, type a file path and file name for the new database file. You can optionally select the default sort order and choose whether you want to encrypt or password-protect the database. If you choose to encrypt or password-protect the database, type a password, and then click OK.
Click Connect to connect to the new SQL Server Compact Edition database. The database is now displayed in Object Explorer.
I see no reference to or any option to create or connect to a SQL Server Compact Edition database in SQL Mgmt Studio. I had SQL 2005 Mobile installed previously and this still shows as an option. What I am missing here? Is SQL Mobile now SQL Compact Editon?
Hi I am trying to complete sql server compact edition book online walkthrough "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Compact Edition". I am successful to complete it as guided using all default settings (e.g. anonymous access, windows authenticaion etc.) and the sample run on both emulator and my pocket pc svc5000. I have following configuration..
Windows 2000 professional sp4 Sql server 2005 standard edition sp1 VS 2005 profesional edition (sp1 not installed) Sql server compact edition Sql server compact edition server tools
But the problem is that in production environment i will not be able to connect to the sql server using named instance (e.g machine_nameinstance_name). i have to use ip address in that situation. so i tried to modify the sample to use ip address in place of named instance and then the problem starts.. I have configued my sql server to allow remote connections using tcp/ip and named pipes using sql surface area config tool.
When using named instance i used following code to Synchronize with sqlserver 2005 with and it worked perfectly :
Dim filename As New String("Program FilesTestTest.sdf") Dim repl As New SqlCeReplication() repl.InternetUrl = http://machine_name/Test/sqlcesa30.dll repl.Publisher = "machine_nameinstance_name" repl.PublisherDatabase = "Test" repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication repl.Publication = "Test" repl.Subscriber = "Test" repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source='" + filename + "';Password='';Max Database Size='128';Default Lock Escalation ='100';" Try repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase) repl.Synchronize() Catch err As SqlCeException MessageBox.Show(err.ToString) End Try
When i tried to do replication using ip address it shows following error:
System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeException was unhandled HResult=-2147467259 Message="Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect." NativeError=29061 Source="Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" StackTrace: at System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication.Synchronize() at TEST.MainModule.Sync() at Test.MainModule.Main()
I am using following code to connect using ip address:
Dim repl As New SqlCeReplication() repl.InternetUrl = http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX/test/sqlcesa30.dll repl.PublisherNetwork = NetworkType.TcpIpSockets repl.PublisherAddress = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,XXXX" repl.Publisher = "SQL2005" 'instance name of sql in sql2005 repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication repl.PublisherDatabase = "Test" repl.Publication = "Test" repl.Subscriber = "Test" repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source='" + filename + "';Password='';Max Database Size='128';Default Lock Escalation ='100';" repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase) repl.Synchronize()
I have give rights to iuser_manchine_name in the public access list of publication and on database also.
I don't have any idea on where i am wrong... Please help soon.. Many thanks in advance..
We have a plan to use Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition RC1 as a backend. Our Front-end is VS .NET (VB.NET).
We want to know how to edit the Compact Edition database (.SDF). Is there any editor is available right now in the market? or microsoft provided any editor for this.
OR Can i use microsoft 2005 sql server standard edition for this.
I started working with Visual Basic 2008 and created a local database that I would like to use in a Visual Basic 2005 project. When I attempt to open the local .sdf file, I get the following error:
"You are trying to access an older version of SQL Server Compact Edition database. If this is a SQL Server CE 1.0 or 2.0 database, run upgrade.exe. If this is a SQL Server Compact Edition 3.0 or later database, run Compact/Repair. [Db version=3505053, Requested version=3004180...."
Where do I find upgrade.exe or the Compact/Repair utility?
Are there any other migration tools you would recommend?
How Can I get Identitiy field from database while inserting new row in sql server 2005 compact edition.
Ex:
I am inserting row in a table through SqlQuery ("insert into ....") in which one of the field is of type Identity which generates number automatically. I want that number to pick up that number and used it in child table....
I have a question about a problem that I cannot seem to tackle. I have installed the following programs on Windows Vista:
- SQL Server 2005 - Visual Studio 2008 - SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 - SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 Server Tools
I want to do the following:
1. I want to create a SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 database in the SQL Server Management Studio 2. I want my SQL Express server in SQL Server 2005 to be a distributor and publisher
About 1. In SQL Server Management Studio I cannot choose SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 . ABout 2. I tried to setup my server to be a distrubutor by running a stored procedure with the following name: sp_adddistributor. I get the following error: This edition of SQL Server cannot act as a Publisher or Distributor for replication.
I am using SQL Express 2005 server and sql compact edition for my PDA. For synchronization, which SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Server Tools installation package do I use?
Is it Sqlce30setupen.msi or sql2kensp4.msi or sql2kensp3a.msi? I know for sql server 2005 its Sqlce30setupen.msi. Is it the same for the SQL Express 2005?
I am having problems installing the SQL Server Compact Server Tools on my Vista laptop to allow me to connect my Mobile Device running SQL Server Compact directly to my SQL Server 2005 database through IIS.
I have done this successfully with an XP machine so I'm not sure if it is Vista problem or not.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 SP2. When I try to install the replication server tools (Sqlce30setupen.msi), in "System Configuration Check" window I get a failure on "SQL Server requirement" that says: "You must first install the Replication Components for SQL Server 2000 SP 3a or higher or the SQL Server 2005 Replication Components" and the client components are full instaled in my computer.
Should I be able to use a SQL Server Compact Edition sdf file as the data source for the SSIS Import and Export Wizard?
When I select the .net Framework Provider for compact Edition from the data source drop down, I get a message box with "An error occured which the SSIS Wizard was not prepared to handle. Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. (mscorlib) Specified method is not supported. (System.Data.SqlServerCe)"
We have a user with a sdf file that will no longer sync, so we wanted to get her data from sdf file tables into SQL Server tables quickly and easily. Since the SSIS wizard wouldn't work with the sdf data source, we copied SQL Server Mgmt Studio query results into an Excel spreadsheet via the Clipboard, them imported those records with SSIS. But we need a repeatable process in case this happens in the future.
We tried to reinitialize her merge replication subscription with SQL Server Mgmt studio, and with C# code, but none of that would work.
How many MS data provider options are available for SQL Server compact edition? I see ".Net Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition" in the SSIS data source drop down, but shouldn't I also see an OLE-DB Provider for SQL Server Compact Edition?
This is all on my XP workstation where I can successfully write C# code for SQL Server Compact data access with Assembly = System.Data.SqlServerCe = C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPublicAssembliesSystem.Data.SqlServerCe.dll. So I think I have the proper tools installed.
