Check If SQL Server Is Running Yet?
Jan 10, 2011I'm running into an issue with my application. If the laptop is just turned on and a user opens the application, the application attempts to hit a SQL server to do some work. The issue is that sometimes the SQL Server process hasn't started yet (slow laptop).
What is the preferred method for checking if this is running.
Do I check for it like a normal process?
Do I attempt to make a connection via ADO.NET and catch the error?
IDE :: Running RTD Server In Windows 7 But Not In XP?
May 18, 2011I'm trying to make an RTD server unicode compliant. It is written in VB .NET 2003, and to my understanding, Unicode characters are used internally, so no conversion should be required, right?
When I run this on an English Windows xp machine, it works fine, but when testing on a machine with a Portuguese version of Windows 7, a couple of the RTD server's dialog boxes will not open in the add-in section of Excel. Does anyone have an idea why this would happen in Windows 7 Portuguese?

.net 2.0 Windows Service Not Running On Server 2008?
Dec 4, 2009I have a windows service written in .net framework 2.0. This service installs and runs perfectly fine on both XP and windows server 2003.We have a new 2008 box that we are migrating over to, so need to get this windows service up and running.When i try to 'start' the windows service on the 2008 machine, i get "Windows could not start the <service> service on local computer. Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion."I have searched everywhere looking for an answer, and all I could find was a fix attributed to .net framework 1.1 for this same error. That; however, is not applicable here, as the service was written in 2.0.
View 3 RepliesMaintain A Running Total In A SQL Server Database?
Mar 4, 2011I am using Visaul Studio 2010 to build a Windows Forms application to maintain a table in an SQL Server 2008 database. The table is named CASHBOOK and here are the further details:
DATE | DESCRIPTION | DEBIT | CREDIT | BALANCE
--------|----------------|---------|-----------|---------
1/1/2011| CASH BALANCE | | | 5000
1/1/2011| SALES | 2500 | | 7500
2/1/2011| PURCHASE | | 3000 | 4500
2/1/2011| RENT | | 4000 | 500
2/1/2011| SALES | 5000 | | 5500
I can use CASHBOOKTABLEADAPTER.INSERT(...) to insert appropriately, but my problem is how do I update the BALANCE column?
Retrieve List Of Services Running On Server?
Feb 2, 2012I'm looking for a way to get details of the name and status of all services running on a service. I did use the following code:
Public Sub GetServices()
Dim localServices As ServiceController() = ServiceController.GetServices()
For Each service As ServiceController In localServices
If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(service.DisplayName) Then
dictservice(service.DisplayName) = New Service(service.DisplayName, service.ServiceName, service.Status.ToString)
End If
Next
End Sub
However, since I have packaged up my project as a WCF service, the System.ServiceProcess namespace I used cannot be used: Is there any other way I can retrieve the same details? Possibly through WMI?
Running A TCP Server Script Constantly But With Low Cpu Usage?
Sep 13, 2009I am using creating a server/client style program, and it uses tcp connections.Now, the server is like this, but it will only listen until it has received its one request. My issue lies in the fact that it only listens till it receives the one message, then closes. The bigger issue, though, is the lag, it will not let me interact with the form in any way until it closes the connection. Is there a way to make it "passively" listen, for lack of a better word? I do not want it to take up tons of cpu.

Application Locks Up When Running In Terminal Server Session?
Sep 23, 2010I have a Windows Forms application created in VS2005 which runs fine on the user desktop but when running in Terminal Server session it frequently locks up when the remote desktop window is minimised and the user is working locally.There is plenty of RAM on the server so this is not an issue, the only solution so far has been to force the user session to log off on the Terminal Server and then reconnect.

IDE :: Publish Directly To Server Would It Disrupt Running Program?
Jun 19, 2009I have a running program which is installed in the server side and this program is running 24hrs a day. Now I made some enhncements on this program and would like to publish it. I tried to publish first in my local disk but after publishing Im having some errors "Critical error: Required processing file is missing" after clicking the setup.exe file. Now Im thinking of publishing this directly to my server. If I publish it directly to my server would it disrupt the running program? is it safe to do that? or is there something that I need to do it first?
View 6 RepliesPerformance - Running Application On Windows 2003 Server?
Mar 3, 2010I've developed a VB.NET application with Visual Studio 2008. The application communicates with SQL Server and processes a text file.
My question is about performance. While I run it from Visual Studio 2008, it takes 3 sec to complete. The same is when I run the executable created by the Setup Wizard on my desktop (Windows XP sp 3). But if I run the executable installed on a Windows 2003 Server, it takes 15 sec to complete! What could be the reason of degrading performance on the server vs. the desktop? The .Net framework 3.5 SP1 is installed both on the desktop and the server.
Running VBA Functions In A Server Side Access Database From A WCF Service
Sep 23, 2011I've been researching for days and I've gotten to the point where my WCF service creates an Access object via com/interop.I've ran the Open Current Database call for the Access object without an error but Application.CurrentDB is still nothing/null. If the CurrentDB is nothing then I surely can't call Application.Run "myFunction" I realize WCF services aren't meant to be user interactive, but it's a long story why I'm trying to go this route. Basically I need to have a proof of concept ready sooner rather than later and the alternative (correct) route involves the complete re-writing of a large complex access VBA application. It's not a permissions issue, I have the IIS user names added to the security tab. What I really need is a way to set Environment.UserInteractive to true so my WCF service can create an instance of Access on my server machine, run the VBA functions, close out, return true.I'm using VS 2010 for the WCF, IIS 7 for my server, Access 2010 for the VBA application.

View 1 Replies.Net Properly Shutdown An Asynchronous Socket Server Running On A Background Worker?
Mar 21, 2012I have a Class called SocketSvr which handles an asynchronous socket server. It is called via the BackgroundWorker from my main form. Basically, I just want it to display my socket data information inside a textbox in the main form, and have a server start/stop button available on the main form to do those things.
Here is the code from Form1.vb:
Public Class Form1
Dim WithEvents Socketsvr As New SocketSvr
Private Sub ToggleServerButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
[code]....
I am uncertain how to properly shut down requests from the client when the StopServer() function is run. In the code above, I place a cancellation queue for the background process. The funny thing is that once StopServer() is run, it will accept one more connection, then stop accepting thereafter.If I remove the following line from the code above:
listener.SetSocketOption(SocketOptionLevel.Socket, SocketOptionName.ReuseAddress, 1)
-- it crashes when I attempt to start the server a second time (complaining that I cannot reuse the socket, obviously) My guess is that I need to add something to the bw.CancellationPending call on the background worker?

Mar 28, 2011I have an application that will not load unless my local SQL Server is running on an Vista Home Premium machine. This started after a .Net 1 to .Net 4 conversion. I am using a sub main sub that is not being called (msgbox is not fired when entering the app), however, I see the app through taskmgr with increasing memory usage, but then the app is removed from the list. By design, if the program cannot locate a SQL Server a form pops up with a connection box to locate the SQL Server for the app. How it determines if it has a valid connection is the program looks for a connection string in the registry, then attempts to connect to it, however, none of this code executes because of the failure to enter into the sub main.The two machines I have tried the 32 bit app on
