Hi,
I have a problem with the installation of SSCE31VSTools-ENU.exe into VS2005. The installation ended after a few seconds although in the event log there is information that the product is successfuly installed. However, when I run Visual studio there is no project under Smart Device regarding SQL Compact database or something similar (there are only templates for: device application, class library, control library, console application, empty project and nothing more)
VS2005 is in this version 8.0.50727.762 (SP.050727-7600)
In application event log there is: Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Tools for Visual Studio 2005 [ENU] -- Configuration completed successfully.'"
Has anyone some idea if there is a problem or how to create SQL Compact database?
Thank you
Jarda
Have you tried installing the released bits?|||Hi William,
I have the same problem that the gentlemen in the initial message described. I tried installing the released bits as you recommended, but the problem continued. Do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks for your help.

|||Hi,
yes, it's yesterday release (Date Published: 1/11/2007).
Thanks
Jarda
|||Did you install in the correct order?
The VSTools must be installed before the SQL Server ce Runtime.

|||Hi,
my installastion order was:
Compact SDK
Compact Tools
Compact SQL edition
I hope that SDK didn't install runtime.
Thanks

|||Hi,
I made another try with installation. Uninstall all items regarding SQL Compact edition and try to install VS Tools first. However I got this message
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch." :-(
Other items can be installed well (SDK, runtime).
I have no previous (beta) installation of Compact edition on my machine.
Please help me
Thanks
Jarda
btw. the link to download the VS Tools from MS site is wrong.

Are you installing
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Server Tools
or
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Tools for Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1
?
The first is only for installations with IIS and SQL Server 2005. (not Express)
Be sure that the versions of the VS tools and runtime are the same. Get the current version of the VSTools from the link in the Related Resources section of the runtime download page at

|||I am experiencing the same problem. After downloading the most recent bits (1/11/07) from the MS website I receive the error, on attempting to install the VS Tools for Visual Studio 2005 SP1 (SSCE31VStools-Enu.msi) that:
"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade patch."
I have confirmed I have installed VS 2005 SP1.
So... why does it reference an upgrade patch? I am installing the RTW version fresh, as I never installed the Beta.
Anyway... pretty frustrating :(

|||Sorry to reply to myself here... I discovered yesterday that my WMI installation is all messed up. This is rather odd as I develop WMI queries all the time against my localhost (just read queries, so I don't mess with the repositories etc).
I know WMI was working on Thursday before I installed the 3.1 Release of January 11 (in which I also uninstalled RC1). At any rate, WMI's class registrations are really messed up in a way the support articles and WMIDiag can't fix. Error message from WMI is 0x80040154 - Class not registered.
So... it makes some sense that the installer would not be able to find the correct product installed if it uses WMI to do so.
I am not able to point to the uninstall of RC1 or the install of the release version as "the problem", but it's an odd coincidence.
|||I also get the same "The upgrade patch cannot be installed ..." message on VS SP1 when trying to install the tools.
|||these post were helpful - I'm not going to try to install upgrade
Thanks
|||Hi,
I just wanted to share that I was finally able to install the VS tools. The problem was that I had to uninstall and reinstall Visual Studio 2005 completely, then installed Visual Studio 2005 SP1, and finally installed the newly released code (including VS tools--> "SSCE31VSTools-ENU.exe").
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Mario
