I'm attempting to develop a small website project using VWD 2010 Express with a SQL Server CE 4.0 database. To check out ability to publish the website, I've created a simple one page project with a one table database. The page contains a Gridview and
DataSource; it was easy to build and works on my development system without error.
Publishing it is another story! I have been working on publishing it at my host provider for about a month. I have an open thread on the SQL Server Compact forum, but despite the suggestions I have received I cannot successfully publish it. There have
been many variations; this is the current status of the project.
After building the project the bin folder contains the following files.
myProj.dll
myProj.pdb
myProj.xml
To the project's bin folder I have added the System.Data.SqlServerCe.dll file and two folders, amd64 and x86. Each one of these folders contain the following files.
sqlceca40.dll
sqlcecompact40.dll
sqlceer40EN.dll
sqlceme40.dll
sqlceqp40.dll
sqlcese40.dll
Both the amd64 and x86 folder also contain a folder, Microsoft.VC90.CRT. Both the VC90.CRT folders contain the following files.
Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest
msvcr90.dll
README_ENU.txt
After publishing the project I check the files and structure of the bin folder on the host server. It is identical to bin folder on my development system, except that the VC90.CRT folders on the host server do not contain the Microsoft.VC90.CRT.manifest
files.
The web.config is shown below.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
<connectionStrings>
<add name="csToys" connectionString="Data Source=|DataDirectory|\Toys.sdf"
providerName="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" />
</connectionStrings>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" strict="false" explicit="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
<customErrors mode="Off" />
</system.web>
<system.data>
<DbProviderFactories>
<remove invariant="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0"/>
<add name="Microsoft SQL Server Compact Data Provider 4.0" invariant="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0"
description=".NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact"
type="System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeProviderFactory, System.Data.SqlServerCe,
Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91"/>
</DbProviderFactories>
</system.data>
</configuration>
With the project configured as shown above I get the following error whenever I attempt to open the project on host server. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Server Error in '/' Application.

I originally began developing the website using VWD 2010 Express with a SQL Server CE database. The design was well along when I signed up with GoDaddy on June 20. There has been a 5 week effort to get that working. GoDaddy's response was limited to "you
have a scripting error." I published simple "Hello World" sites both with and without a database. If a database was included I got an error when the page was served from GoDaddy. In the past 2 days I developed simple WebMatrix websites with and without
databases. The non-database sites would work if I entered mySite.com/default.cshtml; the database sites would crash! Without WebMatrix support GoDaddy does not recognize the .cshtml or .vbhtml extensions.
Bottom line - GoDaddy does not support SQL Server CE 4.0 or WebMatrix! I hope my experiences save someone else from the frustration that I experienced.
