If I am run OLAP application in SQL installed machine (Machine A), it will work perfectly. But I need to run that application in another machine (Machine B) with Machine A's MSOLAP DLL.
Is it possible?
If yes how can I do that?
Update
I have fixed this issue by using Adomd connection instead of OleDb connection... :)
"MSOLAP.4" is the name of the OLE DB provider for Analysis Services as included with SQL Server 2008. This driver is included with the Feature Pack for SQL Server. The SQL Server 2008 Feature Pack is here. Expand the "Install instructions" header and download the correct "Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Analysis Services 10.0 OLE DB Provider" for your platform.
Since, typically, the latest versions can connect without problems to older versions, and SQL Server 2008 is no longer supported, I recommend installing the version from the SQL Server 2014 Feature Pack instead. Use "MSOLAP" as the provider name in the connection string to use the latest version rather than a specific one.

I am new to SQL Server and trying to familiarize myself with it, so I have some questions.
My background is Oracle and am wondering if it works very similar to SQL Server.
On a client machine we need to install a client version of Oracle, and with the installation it comes with a TNSNames.ORA file which has settings for all of the Oracle DB's which are located on an Oracle DB server.
I would assume that SQL server would follow something similar, install a client version of SQL server? If so, does SQL Server has something similar to local Oracle?
I've found how connect to SQL server from another computer, just wondering if I still would need a slim down/client version of SQL Server, I would assume yes.

Some of you might be asking, why don't you try it, don't have my second computer yet, would like this info. ahead of time.
Thank you
SQL Server client APIs include the low-level components needed to connect to and use SQL Server so there is generally no need to install other connectivity components. To name a few Microsoft ones:
ODBC: Latest version is ODBC Driver 13.1 for SQL Server
OLE DB: Latest is SQL Server 2012 Native Client
.Net Provider for SQL Server (SqlClient): included .NET framework
JDBC: Latest Microsoft version is 6.2
There are also a number of other open source and commercial APIs available for use in various programming languages and development frameworks (e.g. Tedious for Node.js).
Suppose that I've created a project using MS SQL Server.
Now if somebody asks me to run my application on their brand new PC, should I install the entire SQL Server management studio on their computer? Or are there any other choices?
Please note that I just want to run my app (.exe template) not to debug it or anything else.
If your application is intended for standalone use on a PC, you can include the redistributable version of SQL Server Express in your installer. It's a limited but functional version of SQL server intended to be included with application programs like yours free of charge.
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/sql-server-editions-express
If your application program is designed for either shared or standalone use, and you have time to polish up your installer, you can ask your users whether they want to use a shared SQL Server instance. That will let you skip the installation of SQL Server Express when it's not necessary.
No they don't need SQL server or management studio , however they a database driver to access the server. ADO, ODBC and JDBC are the types of drivers you would look at. This depends on the language you wrote your application in and the connection string.
You clients would use the server's address and connect to it using the driver which is specified in a connection string. See the examples below:
.Net Framework Data Provider For SQL Server:
Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;User Id=myUsername;
Password=myPassword;
SQL Server Native Client 11.0 OLE DB Provider:
Provider=SQLNCLI11;Server=myServerAddress;Database=myDataBase;Uid=myUsername;
Pwd=myPassword;
If you application only connect to the database that you have a two-tier client server architecture. For the server to be reachable it needs to be on a network or network endpoint that the clients(people running your software) can see. The server needs to be on as well(your comments).
I'm trying to move my databases to a newer Azure subscription. I used to simply click "Deploy to Azure" on a local database from SSMS and have it deployed to a specified Azure server. Importing/Exporting a BACPAC file also works. However, I can't seem to do any of this on the new server. I keep getting the error:
"The service objective 'Web' specified is invalid."
Googling around, I found this thread explaining the need to update the CREATE DATABASE template to accommodate Azure Databases (Azure upgrade, I'm guessing). However, the hotfix provided is specifically for SQL Server 2014 and I'm using SQL Server 2012. I checked other cumulative updates for 2012 here but found no fix for the issue.
Is there any other way I can fix this without having to upgrade to 2014?
Just to summarize my software versions:
SQL Server 2012
SQL Management Studio 11.0.2100.60
Local database: SQL Server 10.50.16000
Old Azure server: SQL Server 11.0.9230
New Azure server: SQL Server 13.0.15
You are getting this error because the latest V12 servers are not supporting the Web and Business Editions anymore. If you don't want to upgrade to SSMS 2014, you can create a V11 server and import your DB on this server. However this is only a temporary solution as Web and Business edition databases will be retired in September. At this point you will have to work with the latest tools to avoid this problem.
There is a Hotfix for it you can download and install on your machine. Please navigate to:
https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/kb/2936603
You need to enter your email then download link will be sent to your email address. Then install it on your machine and you can see the following options:
Install the database as a Data Project into Visual Studio,
Set the target framework in the properties window to SQL Azure,
Build the project and resolve any unsupported issues.
Publish to your azure site.
I have tried the above and did not work for me - this solution worked!
I compiled a Powerbuilder 10.2 Program and released it to my users. it uses OLE DB Connection. Its working in any Programmer PCs except for our users. I think i might be missing a DLL or something to release in the Set. The problem is I dont know what I am missing.
Any help?
My throws sent this: MS OLE DB is not provided in the current installation
I think that you need the Microsoft SQL Server Native Client that should be deployed on each user host.
Which version of SQL Server are you using ?
For SQL Server 2005, you can find it in the Feature Pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (look for sqlncli).
I have installed ASP .NET 2.0 MVC3, SQL server express 2005 and SQL server Management studio express 2005 and IIS 7 in my system. If I am opening the install_btnet file, and providing the SQL server details also it is not getting connect. It is giving error as Service unavailable. Any one suggest me how to install Bug tracker .NET tool in my system with examples.
Thank you.
First thing to check it that your SQL 2005 express instance is running and allowing remote connections. Open the Administrative Tools >> Services and look for the service called "MSSQLSERVER$SQLEXPRESS" and ensure it is started.
Next, open the SqlServer Configuration Utility (on the server or PC where SQL 2005 Express is Installed) Look for the Client Configuration Option and Select "Client Protocols".
Set TCP/IP to "Enabled" and you should now be able to connect to your SQL server.
Note that even if your BugTracker.NET install is on the same machine, it may still be using the network to connect to your SQL Instance.
Hope this helps,
Dave
