I've just installed visual studio 2013 and tried to setup Entity framework to access an teradata database.
I click on new ADO.NET entity model, then Generate from database, but on the data connection screen when I click "New Connection" I don't get teradata appearing the list of datasources. I only get two SQL server options.
Do I need to install something extra to get this to work?
I have installed teradata latest version from there website.

My SQL Server Object Explorer is not showing any databases:
I also get an error A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. .... When I run the website, the error being shown is The system cannot find the file specified. Furthermore, SQL Server is missing from Services:
(It was installed together with Visual Studio and was never used separately)
Yesterday, everything worked like charm; I had multiple databases with tables and was able to access the data. Today, the same project can't even start, no db's either. What's wrong with Visual Studio here? Thanks
I've had the same problem before. Took me a while to figure it out. What you need to do is go here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299
In my case, i'm using SQL Server 2014 Management Studio. You must find the one that suits the version of SQL studio that you're using (2008, 2012, 2014).
Click the big download button and now, it is very important that you choose the proper version. Check:
Express 32BIT\SQLEXPR_x86_ENU.exe if you're running on a 32-bit PC, or
Express 64BIT\SQLEXPR_x64_ENU.exe if you're running on a 64-bit PC
It is very important that you install Express version.
Next, once you install that, you should be able to see the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) in your services.msc, along with few other SQL services installed.
Open Visual Studio 2015 and in SQL Server Object Explorer window right click on SQL Server and choose Add SQL Server... option. It should prompt you to connet to the server from SQL Server Management Studio.
If you kept everything by default during the installation, just type . (dot) for the Server name and click connect. Now it should load the database.
It turns out that Visual Studio does not come with MS SQL Server in the default installation. It is necessary to install SQL Server Data Tools from the MS website manually. VS custom installation also allows to do that, but you will need an installer. Just make sure to select SSDT in the custom installation components menu. Additionally, I also ran an update from VS itself that allowed me to install SQL Server 2008, 14, and 16. I am finally able to access DB in VS!
I just opened new Sql express database in visual studio 2013.
now, when I go to this database in Server Explorer and trying to create a table in Tables, I don't have any create option. I have only 2 options: Refresh and Properties.
everything is define well, if I go to Modify connection and press Test Connection
I'm using SQL SERVER EXPRESS 2014.
Waste too much time on it
solved it :-)
i was missing "Sql server tools" in Visual studio 2013.
you can search it and download :
VS 2013 -> TOOLS -> EXTENSIONS AND UPDATES
I have been learning ASP.NET and building a little customer portal. I used the built in CreateUserWizard. I wanted to look inside the ASPNETDB.MDF file to see how it was storing the users and maybe add some rows of my own. I opened the file in SQL Server Management Studio and viewed the file. I closed it with out saving.
Now when I try to run the program I get this new error:
The database 'C:\PROJECTS\PORTAL\PORTAL\APP_DATA\ASPNETDB.MDF' cannot be opened because it is version 706. This server supports version 662 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported.
So I assume opening the project in SQL Server it upgraded the version to 706, How can I either delete this database and create a new one or change the version of the database to an support version.
Thanks
The following blog entry will help you
http://conceptdev.blogspot.com/2009/04/mdf-cannot-be-opened-because-it-is.html
As soon as you attached it to SQL Server 2012, the database was upgraded to version 706. As the error message suggests, there is no way to downgrade the file back to version 662 (SQL Server 2008 R2).
You can run the script found in your Visual Studio folder -
[drive:]\%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\version\asp_regsql.
It'll display a UI for you to select the server to install a new copy on. Here's a MSDN article about it.
I want to create a database(.mdf) within my website. When i try to add sql server database by:
right clicking the project->add new item->Sql Server Database. I get the following error:
I have sql server 2008 installed on my machine and i have been using it to connect to different databases of sql server by going in the "Server Explorer" section of Visual Studio, as shown below:
But when i try to create a database with my website, i am having problems. I am using Visual Studio 2010.
Please help?
i wrote a website with asp.net 4 and sql server 2008. But my host sql version is 2005 so i get script from my database in sqlserver 2008 and convert it to 2005. Then i import .sql file that is exported from 2008 iin sqlserver 2005 and retrieve it. Then i make a back up with sqlserver 2005 and upload it on my host. Now i have one problem:
I used aspnet_regsql.exe to create the database schema.
But when i want to login to my website it throws following error:
The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database
schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the current
database schema is not compatible with this version. You may need to
either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe (available
in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the provider to a
newer version.
What is the problem?
Which version of ASP.NET is your published website using? It looks like it might be different than what you're using in development.
The version info is configured on a per-AppPool basis in IIS.
