Trying to install PowerShell Tools for Visual Studio on Windows Server 2012 I get an error:
Signaturedescription cannot be created...
Is SQL Server Data Tools Visual Studio different from Power Shell Visual Studio in this regard? I have installed and using SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2013 successfully. Can I use the same SSDT VS 2013 for PowerShell too?
How to use SSRS with sql server 2008 R2 and Visual Studio 2012 installed system.
SQL Server 2008 R2 BIDS integrates only with VS 2008. As detailed here on MSDN:
"Business Intelligence Development Studio is Microsoft Visual
Studio 2008 with additional project types that are specific to SQL
Server business intelligence."
If you already have VS 2012 installed, then BIDS for 2008 R2 (VS 2008 Shell) can install side-by-side with VS 2012.
Wonder if SQL Server 2008 R2 Express edition can be used with C# Express 2010? I'm getting the error below when trying to add 'Service-based Database' item to my projects.
Please note, I've only got SQL Server 2008 R2 Express.
Update 1 - I checked the service (MSSQLSERVER) and it's up and running, I've got no errors during SQL Server 2008 R2 installation either, the PC didn't have any previous versions of SQL Server installed.
The actual error:
Connections to SQL Server database files (.mdf) require SQL Server
2005 Express or SQL Server 2008 Express to be installed and running on
the local computer. The current version of SQL Server Express can be
downloaded at the following URL:

Thanks.
As the message says, Visual C# Express 2010 does not support connections to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express (which is not an upgrade to SQL Server 2008 Express). You could give Visual Studio 2012 a try.
EDIT: It seems like my above statement is not correct. I've tested it and I got SQL Server 2008 R2 Express working with Visual Studio 2010 Premium. So I guess it should also work in Visual C# Express 2010.
In order for it to work I had to change 'SQL Server Instance Name' found in the options under 'Database Tools' --> 'Data Connections'. The default value is SQLEXPRESS but I changed my instance name to SQLEXPRESS2008R2 during installation.
I have an old Report Server Project created in Visual Studio 2005. The reports are deployed to an SSRS 2005 Server.
When I open this project in Visual Studio 2008 it converts the project file and then when I try and deploy any of the reports (from Visual Studio 2008) I encounter this error:
The report definition is not valid. Details: The report definition has an invalid target namespace http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/reporting/2008/01/reportdefinition' which cannot be upgraded.
Is there anyway I can edit and deploy my report files in Visual Studio 2008 without upgrading them. This would save me having to install Visual Studio 2005 on my new laptop.
As far as I know there is no way of editing SQL 2005 Report files with VS 2008. That's why we still have VS 2005 installed here.
I have a number of dtsx projects created under Visual Studio 2005.
When I try to convert the solution to 2008 it converts fine but then the .dtproj file can't be loaded:
myProj.dtproj' cannot be opened because its project type (.dtproj) is not supported by this version of the application.
I have SQL Server 2005 installed but I got rid of Visual Studio 2005 as I am moving all my projects to Visual Studio 2008.
Reinstall the shell for BIDS. You can't use VS 2008 with SQL Server 2005 dtsx.
