Using VB.Net and SQL Server 2008 R2: I have recently had a database that using sp_who2 reflects a connection ".Net SqlClient Data Provider" is still active even though the .Net application has closed and disposed of all connections.

In our VB 2008 we are making a lot of connections to sql server 2005 databases. Is there a possibillity to check with a program or a tool of 2005, all connections are closed?
View 3 RepliesI have a Visual Studio 2008-SQL Server 2005 app that will be throwing alot at it. It's my testbed learning app. I'm also a student of this craft(43 years young) like another poster posted on another thread. I come from a PICK/BASIC jBase background. Anyway as-is my app has a connection to the database that is opened on form load. I close the connection on form close. It's a one form app currently. Is this wrong? It seems that maybe I should not have a connection opened possibly all day. I'm looking into incorporating Datasets, dataAdapters into my next phase of evolution. I looked at the material and it's tough. For me anyway. But I will get into it. I will fetch the data into a dataset so that I can keep the connection open only for a little while. I was turned on to this "keep the connection just as long as you need it" idea from someth
View 3 RepliesI am in the situation on preventing connection leaks. and one of the possible solutions is to make sure that all opened connections are closed after transaction. That means closing the sqldatareader too.
I am confused on the part of closing the sqldatareader. if the method that will be read by sqldatareader encounters error, it is not successfully initialize. If this happens, i will encounter an error once i close the sqldatareader. does it mean the most proper way of closing sqldatareader is like this?

View 3 RepliesI have a server which has around 300+ users on it. Though the problem is that its coded in VB6, and if somebody has a bad ping, everybody has a bad ping. I need a tunneling server which will tunnel the incoming and outgoing connections and make there ping appear to be 0 in the server. Client to Server, Server to Client.

View 4 RepliesI am currently working on an asp.net web page with a GridView displaying a table from a database.This GridView has 4 DropDownLists that will be used to filter the data shown on the GridView. When the page loads 4 Sub routines are run, each one connecting to the database with a select statement to fill the DropDownList with relevant filter headings.
Initially, I had one connection with a loop that populated all of the drop downs but these contained duplicates. I then split the filling of each DDL so that the select statements could contain DISTINCT. I would like (and am sure there is a way here) to be able to populate all of the DDLs with data from one connection.
Code for one connection:
Protected Sub FillDepDDL()
Dim conn As New SqlConnection()
conn.ConnectionString =

The other 3 column names: FirstName > DDLFN, LastName > DDLLN, Wage > DDLWag.This is only a test DB and the princibles learned here will be applied to a larger live project.
I'm pretty new to VB.NET and connecting to SQL Server.What is considered best practice when building an app that needs to connect frequently to a SQL Server DB to fetch, write, delete and update records?Should a connection be opened at app startup (a connection at start is opened to validate the user) and left open for subsequent transactions or should a connection be opened, closed and disposed of each time a read/write to the DB is required?

I have a .net window application created and I wanted to see if it's at all possible to place various file dependencies off the web server. e.g. is it possible to have the connection to the database be off a web server?
I also would like to see if it's possible to place one of the .dlls off the web and have code that points to it to load.
Every time I execute my application and the app try to access the database I received an error message telling me that the user cannot login into the database. This is because the VS Server Explorer have the connection opened. What I need is that every time I debug (F5) my app the Server Explorer close the connection with the database so I do not have to stop the execution and manually close the connection. Is this is possible? Is there any way I can setup the debug or the Server Explorer to do this?

View 2 Repliesa small question: what is the difference between sync and async connections in a tcp/ip client/server application?
View 1 RepliesI have been developing an async socket connection server and client program. I have been testing it, and noticed that if I connect to the server from my client and then disconnect. Upon reconnecting I am on a different port(local IP still). This is fine, however when I go to send a message, and the server trys to update all the clients, it eventually hits clients that do not exist anymore. I get the SocketException 10054, and upon connecting/disconnecting enough, it no longer works at all. My question is how do I clear out these no longer useful sockets from the server? I am doing currentsocket.Shutdown(SocketShutDown.Both); and then a currentsocket.Close(); after that. When a user disconnects.

I have an application which connects to a database, retrieves a username from a user's table and matches it against the username retrieved with System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity.GetCurrent.Name.On my localhost, everything works fine. The database exists on the development server but the application lies on my localhost. All of my authorization and authentication techniques are running smoothly.However, when I publish my application to the development server, I'm faced with the following error.Cannot open database requested in login 'databaseName'. Login fails.Login failed for user 'DevelopmentServerNameASPNET'.

I searched araound and having some difficulties in implementing one scenario with SQL Server 2000 and sybase.I have two SQL servers on different locations naming ServerA (MSSQL Server) and ServerB (Sybase server).I have a table called SALARY.Whenever I insert one record to customer SALARY in ServerA, I also will insert it into ServerB.If should any of them failed, both of them should be rolled back.I am using Asp .Net with VB for the programming.I do not have the right to change / add table in Server B. The only thing allowed in Server B is insert/delete/update record.I looked around and find a method to use TransactionScope but I am not quite sure it is the right way to do.url...
View 1 RepliesI am developing an Application that uses TCP To listen for connections, and then when a message is sent to the server and then it alerts the IP that is running the server. (Lets say the server is on a iPhone, and some how the iPhone gets a text message, which alerts a tcp server running in the background via a .jar, it would send the owner of the iPhone a message on the computer telling it it has a text. This is just an example though, but I think it gets the general idea across. I've been trying to do this, and I can connect to a TCP Server (using 127.0.0.1:8888 for testing purposes, will move to a solid IP and Port later). I can start the server (its still buggy and under development) but i don't know how to connect to the server via an application, and when a certain message is received to alert the IP Running the server.
My Server Code is:
Dim serverSocket As New TcpListener(8888)
Dim clientSocket As TcpClient
Dim infiniteCounter As Integer
Dim counter As Integer
serverSocket.Start()
[Code] .....
Now I know that to connect you'd do something like
Code:
Dim clientSocket As New System.Net.Sockets.TcpClient()
Dim serverStream As NetworkStream
clientSocket.Connect("127.0.0.1", 8888)
serverStream = clientSocket.GetStream()
And I know I would have to use some sort of Byte() method to send/receive messages, but I am at a loss on how to set it all up.
I need to download a bunch of pages from a web server, ie. spidering. I know that servers are typically configured to only allow a couple of concurrent connections from a given IP, but that would already halve the total time to run the script instead of downloading one page at a time.

View 8 RepliesThe current project that I'm working on is mainly employing a database back-end, and I have a few questions regarding database connections in .Net, before I actually convert.
For VB6, I connect to my databases using ADODB connections and recordsets in code only, and not by binding controls. I perform my queries using SQL statements..For differentations in the type of database, such as connecting to a MySql, a MsSql, or an access database, it was mainly the connection string that had to be changed.. and ofcourse installing the drivers.
Now for VB.Net, I believe this can be done using the System.Data assembly. While looking into it, I've seen that it has a lot of members, such as System.Data.Odbc, System.Data.OleDb, System.Data.SqlClient.
My question is, what is the main difference between those namespaces (just briefly)? I would like to generally understand the main differences before I start with anything. I have also heard about LINQ. It looked very alien to me in the MSDN library. (PS: what's the deal with Ado.Net?)

I need to find a code that (when i click the "Search" Button) will start searching for all available lan and wireless connections.
All the available selections will be shown in a List Box provided.
Once i find one i want to use, i can stop the search (by pressing another button "Stop" in this case) or just straight away click the one i want and press another button ("Select" in this case) and if it needs a password or WEP then it will display or it will just connect without asking.
Im making a small servermanager for a game. I have a list of players with their IP's that are currently connected to the the whole game. I want to find out what IP's are connected to a certain process so I can match these with the list of players and then add the players that are in the server hosted by this servermanager, into the playerlist.Adding players to that list and looking them up for a matching IP already works. I just cant figure out how to find all the IP's that are connected to a certain process.
