VS 2010 Catching Errors On Database Connection
Oct 11, 2011
I have developed a windows forms application in vb.net 4 which connects to a MSSQL database. I have used the built-in tools to add the data source, data connection and data set. (Data->add new data source-> etc.) The application is installed on staff laptops which may or may not have network connectivity and may or may not be able to access the server on which the database is held. Obviously this is causing unhandled errors when the program starts and tries to make a connection to the database. (using windows credentials) Does anyone know where in the code the connection is made so I can go in and add some error handling? Or any settings I can change to get visual studio to handle the errors nicely?

MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)

Any example to catch errors and log them to the Eventlog? I would like to catch any error and pass them to my WriteToEventLog function. If I use On Error , how could I catch the Error and pass it to my WriteToEventLog function? I would like to catch the actual error
Public Function WriteToEventLog(ByVal entry As String,
Optional ByVal appName As String = "CompanyName",
Optional ByVal eventType As EventLogEntryType = EventLogEntryType.Information,
Optional ByVal logName As String = "ProductName") As Boolean

I have a problem connecting to an access database. I'm currently trying to build a login/register program that reads the username and password from a database and allows login if the specified username and password are found. I have code that will work properly for that so that's not an issue. However, when I make an attempt to register a new username along with a bunch of other things such as email, password, etc. I am unable to because the database connection is closed. The code I'm currently using to open the database connection is :
[code]...
However, when I try to use this code to open the connection to the database, it leaves the connectionstate closed. I decided to then build in as a test, a block of code that would check on load to see if the connectionstate is open or closed. Each time I've run it so far by making a few changes it always tells me that the connectionstate is closed no matter what I do.

is there a function that will allow coders to connect to multiple database? by just changing the connection string and not the variable declaration ...example:connecting to access is something like this
Dim Con As New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(ConString)
for sql is something like this
Dim Con As New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(ConString)
is it possible? acctually in vb 6.0 it is possible ...

I've searched the forums but never seems to find an answer for this one.. I recently connected to MySQL database server "Automatically" in Visual Studio 2010. I want to know if there's a way to determine the connection state for "Automatically created" connections in Visual Studio 2010. I know how to do it for"programmatically created" connections but just want to know how on the auto-generated ones.

I am developing a chat application using online connection to a mysql databbase. But i am facing a problem. After 10 minutes, MySQL closes all the chat connections because of the 600 seconds timeout (has been set by the host service i am using). I don't understand why is that happening cause every piece of my code which needs data from the database opens and closes the connection (i mean that it dosn't maintain the connection after the query's execution). If i .close() and .dispose() the connection, it still appears in mysql at sleep mode (it terminates only if i exit the program).
Dim MySQLCon as New MySQLConnection
Dim MySQLCom as New MySQLCom
Dim counter as Short

Tried seemingly everything here to get this to work but I keep getting "Keyword not supported" errors for just about every iteration of dsn-less connection strings I can find out there in internet land, two are shown below.
Public cnSystem As New SqlClient.SqlConnection
Public Sub ConnectToSQL()
Dim sConnectionString As String[code]......
what is the proper connection string for a DSN-less connection to a SQL server using the data objects I am using?

When it comes to database connections what is the difference between closing a connection & disposing a connection? I'm hoping to gain a more technical understanding of what happens when each is called & the effect on the database.

i am using access database for my program. now i have connected to the database in MDI form of main exe, and ir also works, user can log in, it gets verified etc etc etc. now here is the problem, when i load a form from dll and try to use any sql query on that form, i get message, "database connection is not opened". so what i did was, i added the connect() (a function i designed to connect to database) in the load part of the dll's form, it made the trick, query's started to run, everything went fine, and when i reload the form i.e after closing the form, i load it again from MDI form, i get error, connection already open..

Okay, I've never used "THROW NEW EXCEPTION" before, and I'm having a hard time understanding it completely.
When a handled error occurs (in a try..catch block), what should I do?
I display a message to the user already in the catch block.
I want to be able to log all errors to a SQL database.
Previously, I would always write a method called LogError, pass the exception into the sub, and it would log it to a SQL database. I'm not sure if there's a built in function for this or not.This will tell the user that there is an error. If I put a call out to LogError(ex) above the dim d as new dlgexception line, then it could log it in the SQL server.
I just feel that I am not doing this the right way.And I am very confused about the THROW NEW EXCEPTION. Why would you ever ned to throw an exception? Wouldn't you just handle it? What is the point?And, why would you throw an error inside of a Catch statement? I seen this done in examples. If the error was already thrown (which sends it to the Catch block), why would you throw it a second time?

I compiled some VB6 code on my Win7 x64 machine and the result .exe will not run correctly on any other machine. VB6 code is just a new template .exe file with one button, a reference to "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.6 Library" and the following code in the button press event: Dim db Set db = New ADODB.Connection It runs correctly on my machine, but no others (even other Win7 x64 machines) (Update: I found TWO other users where it runs and one of them is Jeff Atwood!, but most machines have the same problem)

I am getting these constant annoying errors in Visual Basic .NET 2010 Express. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one, but these errors are always relating to images and resources The Type 'Global.ExampleProject.My.Resources.Resources' has no property named 'example.png'I am pretty sure these are bug, due to the fact that I get these errors after a while in most of my projects - it's absolutely annoying! Most solutions include removing the resources (commenting them out of the form designer code) and re-importing them... But then the problem comes back again after the project has been loaded a few times!
Microsoft suggest this is rather a user-related issue rather than a bug due to the fact that they can't reproduce the error.I'm still sticking to the belief of this being a bug - anyone get this error alot of the time?This is not the only bug I get - sometimes VB stops working when I try to build my projects!
