    - SQLException timeout I am using the .NET SQLData Provider for accessing data from an SQL Server 2000 SP3 Server I have an SQLDataAdapter that it is being provided an appropriate constructed SQLCommand object. The Command's object Timeout Property has been set to 0 i.e. "do not timeout". However, when I am using the SQLDataAdpter Fill method with a DataSet as parameter A and a TableName (string) as parameter B in some cases I get an SQLException with the error code -2 (i.e. timeout). This is not a reproducible behaviour. It usually happens in our customers sites. Just to help you, it cannot be a problem of locks and SQL Server's overload because we run the process that fills in the dataset when nobody else is connected to the SQL server thus it cannot be neither a concurrency problem (locks) nor sql server's overload because there only one user in the server logged in Could you please help me on this. In order to overcome the problem I put a loop of 30 retries to fill the dataset prior to letting the exception be thrown to the caller stack and even with this patch I still have cases that the fill fails to execute with a time-out error What can I do to solve the problem? Is there another property that I can set in the SQL ADO.NET Objects (I had also set the connection timeout to 0) HINTS 1. When the SQLException with the -2 error is thrown the Fill command did not wait a little bit (not even 60 secs). It looks like the error has been immediately sent from the server. 2. The query that I am using in the SQLCommand object is a liitle bit complex (it has aggregate functions, scalar columns and complex WHERE condition that uses xxx IN (SELECT YYY ...). Might be the case that the time out comes from the SQL Preprocessor 3. I put an index in a sensitive column and the exception vanished !! 4. However, this cannot be the solution. I want my queries to execute and my code wait until the execution completes without having to worry about query optimization which is something that will come in next phase of tunning Thank you in advance Stavros K Menegos Tag: check database exists Tag: 85916

    - can't find a downed server even when it comes back up. Pooling problem? I have a program that looks for remote SQL Servers and pulls information off of them every x minutes. It's possible that the DSL connection to one of the servers can be down for an extended period of time. If that happens, I have good exception handling and logging so that it doesn't try to pull data off of that server. I'm experiencing a problem when a server is down for some period of time, but then comes back up. The problem is that the application immediately fails after trying to open the connection, like it doesn't even try to open it. If I stop and restart my program (it's a .NET program running as a Windows service), then it detects that the server is back up and starts working. One other note - if I change a config file so that the server name is the IP address of the server, OR from IP address back to server name, then the program detects that the server is back up and starts pulling data again. (meaning - I change connection string to something else and the program detects the server is back up). Could this be some sort of connection pooling issue? I need my program to detect when the server comes back up and start pulling data without manual intervention. matt tag Tag: check database exists Tag: 85883

    - Problems instantiating a DataSet from XML schema In a standard Windows project, I created a couple of xml schema and used the generate data set tool under the schema menu. I could then view the schema as data sets and they look right - so far so good. However, when I try to instantiate them by dragging a data set onto a form, as described in the help files, I have problems. The IDE correctly lists the xml schema under typed datasets, but when I hit OK I get told that VS can't instantiate the data sets. Underneath it says to build the solution, fix any errors and try again. I build - get no errors or warnings - but when I go through the process again I get the same error message. What am I missing?

    - DataSet.Merge - Expressions not recalculated - Known Bug? When merging a DataSet, if the the DataSet being merged into contains an expression column and the DataSet merging does not, then the expression column is not evaluated for new rows (they are DBNull). Of course, I strip the expression column before updating because of the other bug that causes DataAdapter Update to blow up if an Expression column is present, so this causes the aforementioned bug to occur. Is this a known bug? The workaround is to reset the column.Expression property after a merge. Cole Tag: check database exists Tag: 85859

    - Double or float - make your mind up! I use floats in SQL server as they are its standard datatype for dealing with non-integral numbers I thus thought it would be logical to use the SqlDbType.Float for accessing parameters of this type in ADO.NET, from C# However, when I declare an SqlParameter with SqlDbType.Float as its datatype, its Value property after the command has executed can't be cast to a float, only a double. I'm OK with this if this is what the DB engine wants to do - but is it really correct?????? I know I could cast to a float but would there be much point if I'm only doing comparisons, not much maths. I'm mainly after fast performance Thanks! Tag: check database exists Tag: 85818

    - Updating datagrid display using custom collection I'm having problems refreshing a DataGrid that a custom business object collection (PeopleCollection) is binded to. The PeopleCollection class maintains a collection of PersonInfo items. The PeopleCollection class inherits from CollectionBase and implements IBindingList. The PersonInfo class implements IEditableObject and IDataErrorInfo. What I have so far, is when a user double clicks a row on the DataGrid a 'Person Details' form is displayed showing the details of the person selected. The details of the person may be changed via textboxes on the form. This works well. Problem is if the user changes, say, the name of the person on the form and clicks the OK button the Person Details form is closed, but the new name is not displayed in the DataGrid (it still displays the old data). I know the new name is propagated to the PersonInfo object cause if I click on the row that was changed by the form the DataGrid decides to refresh itself, therefore displaying the new name. So, how do I update the DataGrid when the PersonInfo object is updated? I know the PersonInfo object should be notifying the PeopleCollection object, which should then raise the ListChanged event. The DataGrid updates nice and well on addition and removal of people from the the collection. Problem is only with modification of person objects. I've been working with a small sample program that you can download from microsoft's website. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnadvnet/html/vbnet02252003.asp Hope you can understand my problem and help out.

    - very rookie VBScript ADO RDS Binding question Looking at what is posted here, I'm afraid this will be a real dumb thing to ask (I'm just getting into web programming after having worked in mainframe programming for a long time). I'm learning about ADO RDS Binding. My (simple) web page finally has been made to successfully retrieve a little data from my sample database (which has a "songs" table and a "users" table - joinable on a field called "username"). I'm now trying to persist the extracted recordset (eventually in XML and in a "stream") and to make a user fiendish (oops - I meant "friendly") "table" with sortable column headers and all that... To help me learn about the topic, I found a very interesting MSDN article that had a great looking VBScript at the bottom. The idea of the script is to present form input fields via the page and you can override defaulted connection info and have the script draw you a simple "table" from one of your database tables... Well - I can't get the VBScript to work... I get the form inputs to show up just fine but when I click the "run" button, nothing seems to really happen (and I sure don't get my MS Access info displayed in a "table" on the screen like is supposed to happen). So, my question is "can someone coach me as to how to get the script really to work?" I can share where to find version of the script if that would help. The MDSN article is at: (except for very minor tailoring like putting my column names in where they had different columns, my script is exactly like the one in the article)http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ado270/htm/mdobjaddataconx.asp Some of my connection info is as follows: ' CONNECTION STRING DataBasePath = Server.MapPath("..\db\fpdb\srtestdb.mdb") DatBaseDriver = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" DataBaseSource = DatBaseDriver & DataBasePath ' CONNECTION Set DBConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") DBConn.Open(DataBaseSource) ' Create an ADO recordset object Set rsSRDB = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset") strSQL = "SELECT [songs].[songtitle], [songs].[songgenre], [songs].[songusername], [users].[username], [users].[emailaddr] FROM users LEFT JOIN songs ON [users].[username] =[songs].[songusername];" ' Open the recordset with the SQL query rsSRDB.Open strSQL, DBConn ********************************************************************** Sent via Fuzzy Software @ http://www.fuzzysoftware.com/ Comprehensive, categorised, searchable collection of links to ASP & ASP.NET resources...

    - batch query ?! I just watch an overview of ADO.NET 2 on MSDN TV. In that demo the SqlDataAdapter featured a batch mode where you cold submit update of many line with one query. (instead of the line by line update as now) I thought it was a great feature. Now in my own PocketPC database application (www.ihookdb.com :) I have my own "data access layer" and I thought it would be nice to use batch update too. (and because it's my code I could do it today :) And there a few question came to my mind (on about how to do that) 1. I was thinking, oh well man, it's simple, just queue the query with ';' in the middle. but there is a problem if I write UPDATE MyTable (field1, field2) VALUES (@field1_1, @field2_1) WHERE ID=@field3_1; UPDATE MyTable (field1, field2) VALUES (@field1_2, @field2_2) WHERE ID=@field3_2;..... N times (where N is my batch size) (notice I write @field_1 for 1st query, @field1_2 for the second, etc ...) but what if I use a batch size of 100 and they submit only 3 line changes ? should I create the query depending on the number of changes ? how to do that cleanly ? 2. but there is worst ! lest say I do an INSERT with an ID Identity column, I should have a SELECT @@IDENTITY after my insert. but what happened if I do many insert at a time ?!....

My addparameter command in .net is correct: myDBNull = Convert.DBNull strSQL = "proc_GetColWidths" cmdConn = New OracleClient.OracleCommand(strSQL, New OracleClient.OracleConnection(mstrConn)) cmdConn.Parameters.Add(New OracleClient.OracleParameter("xx", OracleClient.OracleType.Cursor, _ 2000, ParameterDirection.Output, True, 0, 0, "", DataRowVersion.Default, myDBNUll)) cmdConn.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure cmdConn.CommandText = strSQL cmdConn.Connection.Open() cmdSource = cmdConn.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection) I get ora-06550 error when the executereader fires Appreciate any help to sort this out. Thanks Bob Tag: check database exists Tag: 85704

    - Common Database Interface I am trying to develop a program that would work with any database using ADO.NET. I am having a hard time because of the differences in SQL syntax between databases. One example is when I try to specify the column name, some databases require that I put the name between square brackets, others between quotes, etc. I had a similar problem with data/time fields, but I could solve it by using an algorithm with reflection and tags in the SQL sentences. I would really appreciate if anyone could tell me if there is a standard syntax to specify column names that all the databases should accept. At this point I concluded that I will have to create settings in my program to enable the user to enter with this format, but something automatic (as I found for date) would be much better. My deadline for this project is next week, so I would appreciate if anyone could send me feedback as soon as possible. Regards, Lourenço. Tag: check database exists Tag: 85703

    - DataSet problems - selecting on aggregate functions I have a dataset containing an already-populated single datatable which I which to perform an operation on. The structure of the table is below: Specifically, I want to get the most recent message for every unique {Group, User, Subject} subject to TimeStamp being less than an AsOfDate that is externally specified. I then want to bind this table to a DataGrid. I am having trouble since I am used to Access queries (new to the .NET arena), and do not know where to start. TableName: Messages Fields: Group (String) User (String) Subject (String) Message (String) TimeStamp (DateTime) Primary Key: {Group, User, Subject, TimeStamp} Any help would be most appreciated.

    - Typed DataSet Problem Hi, In my application I am manually adding a datarow (with user data not from db) in a typed dataset. At that time the datarow row state is "Added" which is correct. The problem I am running into is when I modify that row later in the application the row state is still "Added" and not "Modified". Why is this the case? Thanks Tag: check database exists Tag: 85656

    - access query and DataAdapter have different data I have a access query with 3 tables with left joins and some criteria conditions. Viewing the query in access 4 records are returned which is correct. If I use a .NET OLEdbAdapter to read the query I get only the first record in the .NET application. Many onther queries and tables work fine. It appears that the jet 4 connection to access can not be relied upon and access should not be used as an undelying application database. Has anyone seen simular problems or know a solution? Tag: check database exists Tag: 85642

    - Problem calling Fill() method I have several tables involved in my application, but the two in question here are the company and address tables. The company table has business_address_id and mailing_address_id columns, which are both foreign keys to the address table. So, the stored procedure to which my SelectCommand points to reads as: ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.CompanyInfoByCompanyID ( @companyid int ) AS SET NOCOUNT ON SELECT * FROM Company WHERE company_id = @companyid SELECT * FROM Address WHERE (address_id IN (Select business_address_id From Company Where company_id = @companyid)) OR (address_id IN (Select mailing_address_id From Company Where company_id = @companyid)) RETURN Whenever I attempt to add a new row into the Address table using my daAddress dataset, the update works fine and even enters a new row inside the Address table. However, when I attempt to refresh my datagrid by calling the Fill() method on the Address adapter I get the following error: Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: UPDATE statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'Address_Company_FK1'. The conflict occurred in database 'OFS', table 'Address', column 'address_id'. I placed the Find() call in a try/catch block, and upon closer inspection discovered this error message: DataSet errors: dsCompanyInfo Table: Address Row Error: Column 'zip' does not allow DBNull.Value. Now, the zip column is indeed populated upon calling the Update() method, and it is populated in the database. So I have no idea where this error message is coming from.

What is your need ? In most cases, I would say the app connects and just
check for errors. Else you could have an option that browse for a mdb dfile
so that the user can connect the app to an existing and user selected
database (or use SQL DMO depending on which DBMS you are based).

That totally depends on the Db. Since you mention 'attach', I'm guessing you
mean SQL Server. In Master, there's a table called SysDatabases and a
field called Name, it has all of the databases in it, you can query using
Exists or Count(*) or whatever you wish.
