• SQL Server Cannot find my default instance

  Hi, I'm using SQL server 200 Personal Edition. I had a named instance created at the time of installation and a default instance later. Now my default instance crashed and I want to rebuild my master db. But neither can I find my default instance in the drop down in the rebuildm dialog box (Only the named instance is present) nor is it allowing me to edit the server name in the drop down. What should I do Thanks in advance. Each instance has its own set of services. Look for the name following the $ in the service name, or the value in () depending on your installation and OS. ...Show All

• .NET Development Where is my dll?

  I wrote a web service with VS2005RTM, and after published it, I cannot find the dll from the bin folder, Where is it Anybody can do me a favor Hello Saffron. There's an easy trick for tracking where your files live. Launch your service in debug mode, then go under Debug | Windows and choose Modules . Visual Studio will show you all the DLLs loaded in the running project; and it will not only tell you if one DLL has symbol associated, but the location of the symbol file as well! :-) In a simple example, my app got the following path: C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\Temporary ASP.NET Files\asmxwebservice2005\fc55b55b\ ...Show All

• Visual C++ /clr Static Libs Possible / linking between mananged and unmanaged

  Hi, Are static libs built with /clr supported under vs2005   When I link against any lib built this way I end up with unresolved tokens and externals.  The same code compiles with no issues with non /clr builds. How are static functions supported   They also seem to come up undefined at times. What are the differences when linking against dlls/libs that are built as managed   I can't seem to find any documentation regarding this.  I am going by trial and error, but would like to be able to do more design. Thank you Your scenario is pretty complex, and it would take me some time to t ...Show All

• Visual C++ VS2005 help - anyone else have problems with this?

  Hi I wanted to ask what other people's opinions are about the new help in VS2005.  I recently 'upgraded' from VS6 after a very brief dalliance with VS2003 and I must say that although the help files are full of indexes, actual help seems thin on the ground.  For example, when pressing F1 after getting an error about ATL::CStringT<BaseType,StringTraits>::FindOneOf, I get told the information could not be found, either locally or online.  Also, why doesn't typing in CString lead me to a page with a nice list of member functions, or at least to somewhere that I can find this information simply and efficiently.  This is ...Show All

• Visual Studio Debugging not working

  I'm new to the Visual Studio world so please be gentle. I'm running Visual Studio v7 at work, and I'm trying to debug a .Net web application. For whatever reason, the debugging is just not working. I placed multiple breakpoints in the page load function to ensure they would be called, and they are just not breaking. I am using the default install settings, and have not made any changes. Others I work with have the same install and they do not have any debugging troubles. Does anyone have any ideas on where I can start to figure out this problem. A couple of extra notes: 1. I'm on WinXP using IIS 5 2. I installed JRun 4 and had it connected ...Show All
