• SQL Server Problem with data-driven subscription

  I have a data-driven subscription that launches once a day and delivers emails to subscribers. The problem is that it delivers only about half the emails. It runs ok and then it produces error. I ran it once and it ran ok and completed without errors. 20 minutes later it produced errors. Log looks like this: ReportingServicesService!library!c!11/16/2006-10:27:45:: i INFO: Call to RenderFirst( '/Subscribed notifications/Subscribed notifications' ) ReportingServicesService!library!11!11/16/2006-10:27:45:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ServerConfigurationErrorException: The report server has encountered a configuration error.

• Visual C++ Linking an app in debug mode (with /MDd) against static lib built in release mode (with /MD)

  I remember this sort of mixing used to work fine prior to VS2005. But now it doesn't seem to. This suggests that one has to have a debug and a release versions of each library to be able to compile a debug and a release version of the application. The following short example results in an access violation exception: Compile A.* into a.lib in release mode with /MD (it doesn't matter if compiled with or without optimization): File A.h: #include <vector> class A { public : std::vector< double > v; A( int x) {} ~A(); }; File A.cpp: #include "A.h" A::~A() { } Compile app.cpp in debug mode with /MDd: File app.cpp: #include "A.h" void main() { A a(4); } The ex ...Show All

• Visual Basic Multithreading Issue

  Hello, I'm trying to do some Multithreading stuff and I've run into an issue. The line that is giving me a problem is the one I've highlighed in brown. The Error says "Method 'Private Sub doThisWhileLoading(whatIsCallingMeID As Interger)' does not have the same signature as delegate 'Delegate Sub ThreadStart()'". I think that it is angry at me for not having the same # of params as my actual method, but I've tried several things to the brown line down there and Nothing has worked. I don't know what delegate or 'Delegate Sub ThreadStart()' mean. Does anyone out there know what I need to do Thanks Imports System Imports System.Diagnostics Imports System.Threading Public Class Form1 Inherits Sy ...Show All

• Visual Studio Team System Can't undo changes?

  We had a case where a developer could not undo their changes. We don't know the exact scenario that caused it but this is some background data. We had a branch that was: $/product/branches/v1.1.0 it got renamed to: $/product/branches/v1.1.x The developer looked like they had checkouts from the pre-rename of v1.1.0. When they tried to undo either through the IDE or command line it said there were no pending changes. Refresh had no impact as well. The only way to undo from pending changes was to try to do a checkin, which then complained there was a conflict, then one of the options was undo my changes and that seemed to cleanup the item from the pending changes list. I tried to reproduce this but could not, ...Show All

• SQL Server Vista and SS Management Studio Install Problems

  Hi, I'm running the Vista Beta 2 (x64) and am trying to install SSMS. This is more or less a clean Vista install (had VS Web Express and SQL Server Express installed but those have been uninstalled). The SSMS install comes up ok and I can enter my name and company. It chugs along for a while and then fails. This is what is in the event log: Product: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express -- The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package.

• .NET Development Accessing temporary DLLs in a command window application?

  Ok, I'm trying to setup a .NET executable to run under a active directory domain account on a windows 2003 server and I'm getting some nasty "can not load dependent assembly hhiuhigt76.dll" type errors. I know in ASP.NET I have to make sure the account that is being used to run the process can access the temp directory in %systemroot%\temp and the %.netframeworkversionroot%\asp.net temporary files\temp. What, if anything, do I need to setup so a normal command window .NET exe can access temp files (assuming of course that temp files are being created). I did finally figure this out, I had to get right down into the code and figure out what was going on. It turns out the programmer was using the xmlserializer to read the xml ...Show All

• Smart Device Development DataReceived/SerialPort Troubles

  I am building code for the PocketPC to interface with a chemical sensor to poll and report on chemical agents in the air. I am having a devil of a time getting the DataReceived event to pass content (through an Invoke) to the main thread. When I write an "N" to the device, it is supposed to send back the following string to the UI, which represents the chemical sensor types that are housed in the unit: "CO VOC H2S LEL OXY" When I send an "R" to the device, it is supposed to send the current readings for each of the sensors as a string that looks like this: "00000 00000 00000 00000 00207". I have all of this working successfully as a WIN32 application, but it doesn't port cleanly to the .NET 2 ...Show All
