• Visual Studio Team System Failed to install Beta 2 Team Foundation Server. Now what?

  I have setup three Virtual Windows Server 2003 machines(Domain controller, Sql server and Team foundation Data Tier, Team Foundation Application Tier) The install of the data tier seems to be fine. I follow the setup guidelines and check that everything is up and running, but whenever I try to install the application tier I get all sorts of variations of the "Error 32000". I kind of suspect that since I am getting different 32000 errors each time now, there may be things that hasn't gotten cleaned up right. Does anyone know, or have a list of steps for a proper cleanup after failed installs I am using the Beta 2 releases for all ...Show All

• .NET Development cannot access SQL database in VS.

  I have a databse in SQL Server 2005 Sept Beta 2. On another partition I have Visual Studio 8. I want to establish a connection between the two. Doing it programmatically in a C# code program fails.The connection string does not give me an error on debug. Doing it via GUI in VS fails on the account of "timeout failed..." I tried to copy the whole database from SQL Server directory into VS directory - the same result. Amazingly, I was able to connect to my FoxPro 9 database with no problem. Also an Access database is connected. Is there a way to increase this parameter: timeout Where is set up Thanks. Hi. Don't increase your timeout. ...Show All

• SQL Server I need SQL Server2005 Standard Edition with my SBS2003R2

  How can I get the SQL Server2005 Standard Edition when I upgrade my SBS2003 to SBS2003R2 I'm no expert on SBS but it looks like upgrading to R2 gets you SQL Server 2005 Workgroup if you're on SBS Premium. Upgrading from Workgroup to Standard would probably entail purchasing SQL STD and then doing the install. But I have no idea if this would be a good idea or if it would even be supported by SBS. You should ask your question on their forum. Paul ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System How can I export an Application Diagram?

  Hi, I have created an application diagram with several applications and end points.

• .NET Development ProcessorArchitecture determination using IHostAssemblyStore

  How does the CLR determine the ProcessorArchitecture to include in the Ref Identity when it calls IHostAssemblyStore.ProvideAssembly I have a native application using the CLR Hosting api's. All of my application's assemblies are bundled in a single file, along with metadata describing the assembly identities. These identities are obtained using ICLRAssemblyIdentityManager.GetBindingIdentityFromFile. When my application loads, IHostAssemblyStore.ProvideAssembly gets called for each of my assemblies, but the AssemblyBindInfo.lpPostPolicyIdentity seems to contain a different binding indentity than what was originally obtained and stored ...Show All

• Visual C++ Strange number precision issue

  I don't know if this is the correct forum for this question but since I have no idea what would be the correct forum, I'll ask it here. Trying the following expression in code (managed or unmanaged), as well as in a quick watch window in VC++ 2005 gives the following results: (float)1/200 = 0.0049999999 (double)1/200 = 0.0050000000000000001 I have jumped from VC++ 6.0 straight to 2005, and I have never seen anything like that before. Talking about managed/unmanaged, I performed the same test (in the code, since the quick watch does not understand it) a CLI cast: float tmp = static_cast<float>(1)/200; Well, needless ...Show All

• SQL Server How to insert a record in the middle of a DB

  Well, how do you do it   I've not seen any report on this... so could it be next to impossible   Say you have 10 records, 1-10 and you want to insert a new record between record 4 and record 5 in a SQL database, just how do you code it    And oh, each record uses the auto ID increment feature.

• Visual Studio Team System TF42056: The build service could not connect .... TF30063: You are not authorized....

  This message is displayed on a client box (running VS 2005 architect) when we attempt to execute a build type. The build type is referenceing the build service on a different server. TFS is running great and check in / check out, etc works fine. However, I do not have a domain in place since this is all installed on virtual instances. All logins are local and everything works great except for this. My problem is that since the build service account is running on a standalone machine I'm assuming it is responsible for providing this message back to the client.

• Windows Forms DataGrid Binding DataRelation and Displayed Value

  Starting to get used to this databinding to a DataSet idea. Pretty straight forward and the amount of code is simple! I have a DataSet with many DataTables in it and many DataRelation. The main DataTable is Releases (sort of a release for order from a customer), the minor table I am concerned with (others are similar) is the Customers Table. A release will have a single customer and a single customer will have many releases. I am binding the DataGRid to the DataSet and setting the DataGrid.DataMember to "Releases". First go around with TableStyles and ColumnStyles is straight forward, all I wanted to do was display the releas ...Show All
