View 2 RepliesI've tested an application (one that I'm developing) that utilizes MS Access database (.accdb) on a backup machine. And I consistently get an unhandled exception error saying 'The Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' provider is not registered on the local machine. I suppose I get this error because the backup machine doesn't have a driver or whatever to read the Access database file. Reading
this topic titled "How to deploy VB 2010 application as a standalone without MS Access", I understand that I can just specify a prerequisite for this component (driver or whatever...) in the project designer window in reference to this page. I wonder if there is a simpler way of delivering the database component to users? Or should I abandon the Access database and use a different one for easier accessibility?
I'm a first time visitor and poster, but I'm definitly going to stick around. I'm running an old version of Visual Studio .Net Academic 2002 and the .Net framework 2.0. I'm stuck on an issue regarding the deployment of a few programs I've thrown together. They all work fine on my development machine, but the problem they all use SQL Server databases, and I can't find any specific help on deploying a windows application with a database on a machine that isn't set up basically just like my development machine.
I know that I need the .net runtime bootstrapper on the target machine, so I can run basic programs that dont use SQL databases. That's no problem. But what about programs that make heavy use of databases? How does one go about deploying it on target machines? Is there a SQL server bootstrapper?

I have an application that accesses a sql server 2008 database. The server and database is stored on my local harddrive and I would like to learn to scale this up to having multiple users in our office access the application which I will i deploy on a server. For now the database will stay on my pc until I am ready to put it on a dedicated server for myself but for now how do I allow the application still to access my database without allowing anyone direct access to my server or my pc drive. Here is my current connection string:

View 7 RepliesI have to deploy my VB.NET application, and create a new access database with 5 tables, some filled in with values on installation in a specified folder in the C: drive which also needs to be created. I have found using google havent seemed to work for me. I am using Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition, so maybe I need to use a proper copy of Visual Studio 2008 to do this.
So basically I am looking for a way to create a .exe file that will be used to install my program on a user's computer, and create a folder and database with some values on instalation. Could anyone tell me how I can do this or point me in the right direction? EDIT - Also would you be able to answer this question for me. Will the computer that the program will be installed on require visual studio or any other software to run my program?
I have recently developed a back end database in SQL server 2008 R2 and attached it to a application in VB express 2010.Everything works fine and when i publish the application, it works fine on my machine, but once i try to setup up the application on another machine i get the error message: A network related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server was not found or not accessible please verify the instance name is correct or allow remote connections.I have read numerous forums on this saying about changing the connection string and instance name.but with being novice i dont understand what needs to be changed etc.The sql server allows remote connections, but i am unsure what else needs changing to allow the application to work with the database on another machine.
View 5 RepliesIs there any literature which guides a user through the steps of deploying a vb project created with VS 2010 Professional and incorporating SQL 2008RE Database?
I have a VB project which incorporates 2 databases - 1 Access Db and 1 SQL Db. The project compiles and runs beautifully. However, after adding the databases in the project as existing items and deploying, the project opens/runs, but when I try to login the application I keep getting an error message telling me that the path to the .mdb (Access) database is not a valid path. I don't have a clue what else to do.

i would like some advice on how I would go about deploying my application I coded with vb.net and access.The problem I have been facing is that I cannot install it on another machine . It gives me an error saying that It cannot find the database in C:\Users\Weighbridge2\AppData\Local\Apps\2.0\Data\. database.accdb when you install access runtime and access runtime sp1 and copy the database to that location then it works.Is there a more efficient way of going about this. I suspect it has something to do with the refferences and prerequisites but up to now i've tried almost all we know .

I built this vb.net windows application that uses an Access DB for data storage and it works fine in visual studio. The problem is, when I deploy, install it from an MSI, i get this error: (see below)If I right click on it and run this program as administrator, it works fine. I thought it was a permissions problem so I gave user, administrator and system full rights to all the files in the directory. But I still get the error.Isn't giving all the files in the program directory full rights the same as making it run as admin?

I have developed an application in vb.net.I use a dll that I build as part of a different project in my solution. For some reason I don't get the full functionality of my application with the dll built as a "release" version, but it does work if the dll is built as a "debug" version (that's a whole different problem).I don't have a problem, for now, using the debug version.However, the problem I'm having is I am trying to deploy the application to another system and if I deploy the debug version of the dll I get a runtime error (see below).I have the .net Framework installed. I'm just wondering what has to be installed in order to allow me to use the debug version of the new system? [code]When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer rather than be handled by this dialog box.
View 1 RepliesI have a project that uses web references to make SOAP calls to several web services. When I'm working locally, the services are hosted on my local machine, so the URL of each web service is something like [URL]. When I deploy the project to a server, the URL needs to change to the production URL. Currently I am accomplishing this with a prebuild event that does a find-and-replace on each URL and overwrites it with the deployment URL before deploying. Surely there is a better way.

I have created a program in VB.Net using Visual Studio 2008, the program works fine and everything is working until I try to install it.I need to be able to add it to a flash drive so I can load it up on a handheld device. I have gone through the publish wizard on my PC and created the Application Manifest and other Files on my PC, I have then copied this folder onto a memory stick and then accessed it through the handheld and run the set up. everything seems to work but when I try and access the program I get an error message stating that the program can not find the database file; it tells me to check the path [Data Source = database1.sdf] i have searched for my database and it does not appear that it has been deployed.No idea what the problem could be as this is the first time I have tried deploying an SQL Server compact database with a program.The device I am deploying too is a panasonic Toughbook which is running Windows XP, it already contains an application which runs an SQL Server DB.
