SYMPTOMS
A corrupted database may produce the following error message in the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition (SQL Server CE) Query Analyzer if you attempt to open a connection:
The error code is SSCE_M_DATABASECORRUPTED (Non-database file or database file corrupted).
A Microsoft embedded Visual Basic (eVB) application that uses the CompactDatabase method is not able to compact a corrupted SQL Server CE database. An attempt to call the CompactDatabase method may return the following error message:
CAUSE
The engine ActiveX code for CompactDatabase tries to initialize the source database before compacting the source database. If the initialize fails, the CompactDatabase method aborts. Hence, you cannot use the CompactDatabase method on a corrupted database because the Initialize method on a corrupted database always fails.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition. For additional information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
316498 INF: How to Obtain the Latest SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition Service Pack
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem use the Microsoft embedded Visual C ++ (eVC++) to implement the OLE DB Compact method.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was first corrected in Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Windows CE Edition Service Pack 1.
MORE INFORMATION
The following eVB code compacts a SQL Server CE database. However, the code may not fix a corrupted database:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
On Error Resume Next
Dim DBEngine As Object
Dim oFS As Object
Dim srcConn As String
Dim destConn As String
Dim txtlog as String
Err = False
srcConn = "Provider=Microsoft.SQLServer.OLEDB.CE.1.0;Data Source=\sourceDB.sdf"
destConn = "Provider=Microsoft.SQLServer.OLEDB.CE.1.0;Data Source=\destinDB.sdf"
Set oFS = CreateObject("Filectl.FileSystem")
' Make sure there isn't already a file with the name of the compacted database.
If oFS.Dir("destinDB.sdf") <> "" Then
oFS.Kill "destinDB.sdf"
txtlog.Text = "drop destinDB.sdf complete" & vbCrLf
End If
Set DBEngine = CreateObject("SSCE.Engine.1.0")
' This statement creates a compact version of the database
DBEngine.CompactDatabase srcConn, destConn
If Err Then
txtlog = txtlog & "Error: " & Err.Number & " " & Err.Description
Else
txtlog = txtlog & "compactDB complete" & vbCrLf
oFS.Kill "\sourceDB.sdf"
txtlog = txtlog & "drop \sourceDB.sdf complete" & vbCrLf
oFS.MoveFile "destinDB.sdf", "sourceDB.sdf"
End If
msgbox txtlog
Set DBEngine = Nothing
Set oFS = Nothing
End Sub
OLE DB Application in eVC++ Using Compact Method
The following eVC++ OLE DB code compacts a SQL Server CE database. This code can also fix a corrupted database. To build a compact tool for a specific device, use these steps:
- Create a .cpp file and open it in eVC++.
- Edit the path to the source and the destination database on the device and specify a password (if you require a password).
- Use the Build menu option to create a default project workspace.
- Specify the correct settings for the CPU your device is using. As an example, use the project settings for the eVC++ OLEDBSeek sample installed in the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server CE\Samples\eVC folder.
- You should see the following libraries in the Object Library module:
- Commctrl.lib
- Coredll.lib
- Ole32.lib
- Oleaut32.lib
- Uuid.lib
- Oledb.lib
- Set the path to the appropriate Include and Library files for the device's CPU type. To add the files, from the Tools menu, click Options, and then click Directories.
Build the project, and then run the EXE on the device. Here is the C++ OLE DB code:
