I have upgraded from VS2008 Professional to VS2010 Professional. I have VB 2008 applications that use SQL Server 2005 Express and were working on my development machine (XP) and on the machines on which they were installed using VB2008 Setup Projects.
I have installed VS2010 on my development machine and insatlled all available updates. Then, I copied one of my existing applications from the VB2008 Projects folder to the VB 2010 Projects folder and opened it in VB 2010, where it ran the
upgrade to VB 2010. After it finished upgrading the appliacation to VB 2010, I tried to run it in debug but I get the following error at the piont where the SQL db is supposed to load and fill inforamation on a form in my application:
Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance.
I finally got SQL Management Studio installed and did queried the istalled SQL versions. I default version is SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition SP3. The SQLEXPRESS version isMicrosoft SQL Server 2008 (SP3) - 10.0.5500.0 (Intel X86) Sep 22 2011 00:28:06 Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 <X86> (Build 2600: Service Pack 3). I have also run the sp_configure 'user instances enabled',1.
Reconfigure query and that did not fix the problem.
I am stuck with this error and have read many suggestions that do not fix the problem. Below is the error detail. Can you tell me how to fix this problem?
Thank you,
Dan
