• SQL Server Using Transactions causes database connection to fail

  In one of my packages, I set the package-level property called TransactionOption=Required. During run-time I saw an error saying "[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "SQL_DW". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection. ". When the property is changed to anything other than Required, it works fine (the calling package that calls this package is not involved in a transaction). The machine running the packages is Windows Server 2003, and so is the database where the data lives. I verified that the machine containing the database does has Ena ...Show All

• Visual Studio Excluding Web Application files from Source Safe

  Hi! The Context: Perhaps I should post this one in the ASP.NET Forums but it about VSS also so... here it is: In VS2005 all files under the root folder of a web application are considered part of the application, which means that there is no 'Exclude from Project' option like Windows Application Projects. This is a good thing for many reasons except this one: All files are automatically added in Source Safe. The question: Is possible to exclude some files from being added in Source Safe For instance I would like to exclude all files under BIN folder and some config files that are different per-developer. Does not help : ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista Where do I get WCF Activities

  We keep being teased about prototype WCF Activities in various demos and webcasts to inetgrate WWF with WCF. (SendMessage,ReceiveMessage, SendReceiveMessage,ReceiveSendMessage) Does anyone know where we can obtain these -even if only prototype/Beta it would be useful to get up and running. NB When I add a Indigo Service, via an 'Add Web Service' it does not add a reference to System.ServiceModel.  Contary to James Conard demo. Thanks Jules  Sorry memory of a goldfish I believe the general advice is that in the absence of these Activities being released, there are three options, of which the first two are a) Write the equival ...Show All
