Proper Setup / Installation Of Sql Server Express?
Feb 24, 2012
I'm currently working on a project that populates a database with CAD document info from approx 20 engineers / draftsmen in an engineering office.I have the program functionality working on my computer. However, I would like to install this on the network and begin doing some addiitonal testing and debugging.
I'm unsure about the proper way to install the database and sql server express on the network. My program, which sends the info to the database, will be installed locally on each persons computer. Of course, the database file will be in a location on the network that everyone has access to.I'm assuming I should install the SQL Server Express on the network server as well. How do I setup the server for the SQL express?For example, when I installed it on my computer, the default server name was "Brian-HPSQLSERVER".How do I specify a new server name when installing the software?

I'm just using the default SQL Server Express in my vb 2008 express edition as my database server for my database operation. When I tried to update the records on my table I got a runtime error which indicates the error on this line 'myCommand.ExecuteNonQuery()'and it highlights a yellow background on it. The runtime error says "SqlException was unhandled: An expression of non-boolean type specified in a context where a condition is expected, near 'Number'. ".
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim myConnection As New SqlConnection
Dim myCommand As New SqlCommand

I have a vb.net application . I have added references of Ms Excel into the application.In my machine both vs and ms office are installed
Now I move my code to another machine where only vs was installed and not ms office . When I run the code from vs it works perfactly.
Now I make installer. I install it on my machine and it works
I also install it on another machine where ms office not installed and it does not work .
my question is why it is working when I am running from code and not when I am running from Installed shortcut ?
and should I need to install ms office also on the machine to run the application from Installation. ?

I have a series of 12 individual projects developed under a single solution. Now I want to create a Setup Project for installation of these projects. I want to have single setup.exe as output which should install either 1 one of these 12 projects based on the user selection.Whenever user tries to install these by clicking setup.exe, he must be provided the option of selecting the project and then installation should proceed installing the corresponding exe.

The 'DefaultLocation' for my application is set to '[ProgramFilesFolder]MyApp'. Now I would like the user to select what drive to install this application to. I know this is accomplished through the 'Installation Folder Selection' dialog, but I want the user to be able to select a drive only, not the entire path.
My question is how do I capture what drive the user selected from the 'Installation Folder Selection' dialog and use that drive letter to tack on to my 'DefaultLocation' variable?

I've just created a setup file for my application . Instead of using the click once process , I used the Create Install Free 4.14.5 program , in order to be able to specify some parameters that under click once I couldn't (like specifying installation folder etc) . The problem , however , is that now when I installed the application , an error message appears saying that the computer is missing the Visual Basic Power Packs 9.0 (which I indeed used in my application) . So , is there any way I can add it to my setup file ? That is in order to avoid making people manually downloading and installing it .

Can I have Two basic Questions about Setup Project deploying -
1, After I put company's logo at startup installation, there was still text shown up "Welcome xxxx setup.." together with the logo, how to remove it and display company's logo only? Also, if using text display and the text is too long, how to return to next line?
2, If I setup more than once, I was told to remove the first one using Add/Remove program in Control Panel before setting up new program. How can I use a dialog like "Overwrite the existing program"?

I want to create personal folders during installation. I did the following steps:
Right click on your setup project ->
View -> File System
Right click on node "File system on
[Code]....
I know the above steps are correct and should work because i did it in the other application (solution) and worked fine. When i did same exact steps (of course i changed the folder name to be created), the application gets deployed but when i install, i don't get the Personal Folder under Documents? I wonder why did it work with my first solution and didn't work with the current one!

I've created a setup project for a VB.NET 2010 application that I've written. The application, and the installer both work fine on my development machine.The installer works fine on other machines, but when I run my application it immediately crashes and dies without telling me anything useful. I've tried it on Windows 7, Windows XP, and Windows Vista machines... and all had the same problem, so I think it's more of a package configuration issue than a machine-specific problem.Here's the most useful information that I was able to get out of it:

If I have Visual Studio C++ Express 2010 installed on my computer, and I decide to install Visual Studio Visual Basic Express 2010 as well, are these actually two independent products that are installed in different places on the machine, or do they share files and folders, or what? I want to install Visual Basic to help my father learn programming, but I already have C++ installed and I don't want to mess up that installation.

I am trying to install VB 2010 Express, but the installation stalls during ENU setup with the message that a certain product must be uninstalled. The product listed is:
Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Professional Beta 2 - ENU.
I did try the 2010 Professional but gave up on it. I deleted as many files in those folders as I could. I found the file listed above in the Programs & Features list. When I try to delete it by right click, it opens up a Maintenance Mode Setup wizard. If I follow this it requires me to subscribe to the Professional system, which I don't want to do. I also have run MS Visual Studio 2010 Uninstall Utility, but the new installation stalls at the same place with the same message.

I am using VB 2008 express. I created a setup file for installation using the publish command. When I install on another computer, it installs under the documents and settings directory. I want it to install under program files like most other programs.
I've search everywhere on the web for this. The closest thing i could find was talking about the DefaultFolder under the projects applications folder. I don't see that option. I can specify all the publication directories - but these are strictly for where VB creates the setup file at - not where the setup file installs it. Frankly it would be really nice to be able to allow the user to specify the directory as an option, with program files as the default. But for now I'd be happy to just be able to change the default install directory for my app.

I took a look at System.Security.Cryptography.MD5 class about using a checksum for a UDP program i am making.Basically i want to use it, to ensure the server is receiving what the client sends it, in a way that the server can make note of it receiving properly without having the client keep track of how many proper payloads the server received. The reason i need a checksum is because the client is sending a random hex payload, so i cant have the server predict what it should receive the same way as i have it working with the sequence number.I dont fully understand how i could implement this to my code. I believe i should make a public property in my packet class, but im having trouble implementing it with the way i coded my program. [code]

Here is the scoop: I am trying to make a user account SQL database work with Visual Basic 2008 Express for login purposes, i.e. usernames & passwords. Plan is to host this server so people can login to use the the application and verify they have a valid account. I would like to host all the account information in SQL due to the possiblity of hundreds of users at any given time. I also need the ability to add data to the database for users registering for the first time. The SQL server will need to be able to access the SQL Server databases remote via WAN.

I am trying to re write a VB6 program using MS Access, many years ago, using VB 2010 express and SQL server 2008 R2 Express. I have a database with several tables, which I created using the designer. I am able to connect to the database and select data and display it in textboxes etc in vb code. What I have not been able to in code is to INSERT rows DELETE rows or UPDATE any data in the tables. I can do any of these operations using the Query Designer, but I want to do it in code. I can post some code if necessiary, but I thought it might just be some property that I had not set in the designer.
