I'm trying to connect to SQL Server 2008 express database from Visual Studio 2010 using data connection wizard. I choose new connection -> MS Sql Server then I choose the only available server name (PAVEL-PC\SQLEXPRESS). The problem is i cannot see my database in the combobox below. System databases (like master, model, msdb etc) are shown though.
I've managed to find similar questions (like this one: Cannot connect to SQL Server database in Visual Studio because my database isn't there) and it seems I'm having permission issues. However I cannot understand which user (and where) should I add.
The account name which I'm running my Visual Studio on is Pavel. My computer name is Pavel-PC. I'm not sure what my SQL Servers account names are, but it was installed using default settings.
Here is the answer to my question:
use "PAVEL-PC" instead of "PAVEL-PC\SQLEXPRESS"

This is the new problem I have in VS 2022 it works fine in VS 2019
The same, issue is happening with Visual Studio 2022. It works fine with VS 2019.
The connections/ login window looks like in SQL Server Management Studio.
Details: in Visual Studio on the SQL Server Object Explorer I was able to add the PDW server.
I can browse the server tables, stored procedures, security and all.
If I right-click on a database, or table and select "New Query", it will ask me to log in with the same window as M Studio.
I am able to connect fine if I open an existing query.DSQL file it allows me to use history connections or connect normally.
So I am connected to the server on SQL Server Object Explorer but when try to open a stored procedure it asks to login again and that is where it fails because it tries to connect with different parameters
I get this(https://i.stack.imgur.com/PYcFr.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/PYcFr.png)
instead of (https://i.stack.imgur.com/0beik.png)](https://i.stack.imgur.com/0beik.png)
when I add the server I am able to brose the databases table and so on when try to open query window
it ask you to connect when was already connected.
the error is related that it try to connect like management studio that does not allow connection to PDW.
then I do have a different window see the pictures
I'm new to Azure and I'm trying to connect to our Azure DB using Visual Studio.
I can connect to the DB fine, but when I expand the DB I cannot see any DB Objects. See the image below. I've Googled the issue but cannot find where anyone has replicated this issue, so I accept I'm likely doing something wrong!
I can query the DB fine and it will return results.
To connect the visual studio to azure database and view the tables of database in visual studio follow the following steps:
Open your project in visual studio, Click on server explorer
Then click on SQL server Object explorer
Then click on Add SQL Server
Then expand Azure, click on your mail id and select subscription.
Then it will show all databases present in your subscription, select
your database I will fetch all information expect password, provide
your password and click on connect.
It will show all your databases tables from azure database
You can refer to this Document for more information: Work with Visual Studio to connect to SQL Databases in Azure.
When I try to create an Sql Server Database in the App_Data folder of my Visual Studio 2010 project, I get the following error:
Login failed for user:[Domain]\[user]
I am able to create databases using Sql Server Management Studio. I am using Sql Server Express 2008.
Any help regarding this is appreciated. Thanks in advance!
As you are using express edition, in Visual Studio go to Tools>Options>Database Tools>Data Connections.
Remove the SQL Server Instance Name and click OK.
Now try connection to the server using Server Explorer. Once you get connected, you will be able to create a new DB in App_Data folder.
Here is the connection string:
public string ConStr = "Data Source=.;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|CodeDB.mdf;
Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True";
Also make sure that you have user instances for your DB enabled.
In Visual Studio 2013:
Go to Tools-->> Options-->>Database Tools-->>Data Connections. SQL Server Instance Name
Type ProjectsV12
Then Create SQL Server Database inside the App_Folder, and it will work.
Open CommandPrompt as administrator
Type sqllocaldb info and press enter
It will display all the available local db.
I'm working with Visual Studio 2010 express and MSSQL 2008 R2 express.
I've created model from DB tables.
Now I have problem with connection.
When I connected to DB with Management Studio, I can't run my project, I'm receiving exception with message "The underlying provider failed on Open".
Restart of SQL instance helps, than I can run my project and work with entities, but after that I can't connect to DB from Management Studio.
To connect successfully, I need to restart SQL server instance again.
Are there some ways to do that simultaneously?
It sounds a little bit like your database might be set to Single User Mode, have you checked that?
I've been looking around to find an answer to this question, and seeing lots of different answers, some of which don't look right to me. Here's my problem.
I've created a SQL Server 2008 Express database, and populated it with tables from 2 regular SQL Server databases (it's to receive data from the 2 databases). I've done this using Windows Authentication.
Now I want to test deploying an app, as a ClickOnce application, so I've written a bare-bones console app in VS 2010. Next I tried to add a new data source to the SQL Express 2008 database. But when I try to do that I get a message saying, "This file is in use. Enter a new name of close the file that's open in another program." (I'm running VS 2010 as an administrator on my Windows 7 Ultimate box, which was one of the answers someone gave to fix this problem, but isn't working for me.) I don't have the SQL Express db open in SSMS or anything else. One solution I've read is to get into SSMS and detach the .mdf, but then how would I do maintenance, like create new SP's, views, etc? Is it a maintenance nightmare of attaching in SSMS while not in VS 2010, do DBA work, then detach the DB, get into VS 2010 do work, etc?
The database is meant to run on the user's machine; not a network share.
