    Problem in User Adapter Type

    Reply Quote

    Step 4: Load and save the Cute Chat configuration file to the database


    Open the Tools/CuteChatConfig.exe. Type in the connection string, then click the load button. 

    In the User Adapter Type and Data Provider Type fields, you need to specify the full type name of the provider and the name of the assembly containing the provider implementation.

    Then click the "Save the configuration to the database" button.
     
    In this Step what is user adapter type and data provider type. For suppose I have the server abc and its password is xyz. Now how can i set this connection. Is it necessary to copy configuration tool.exe in my project. What's the use of it?

    Hi,

    Connection string should be like this:

    server=sqlservername;database=sqldatabasename;uid=sqlusername;pwd=sqlpassword;

    sqlservername may be sqlIPaddress, depends upon sql server and network setup.

    You may (at least in the standalone version) also need to update ConnectionString and CuteChat.SqlClient.ConnectionString values in your web.config file.

    You don't need to copy .exe file to your web. Don't forget to load import-this.xml from the tool.

    BTW, there's a readme.txt in the package.

    Did you grant db owner rights to your uid?

    Anyway, "SQL Server does not exist or access denied" means it's a problem of uid, pass, servername or whatever, but not of Cute chat.

    Try the following:

    Create a test.udl file on your desktop. Double-click it. Go to Provider tab. Select "Microsoft OLEDB Provider for SQL Server", then click "Next". Check "Allow saving password". Play filling the fields until you get "Test connection successful" when clicking "Test connection". Then click OK. Then open test.udl with notepad and you will see everything you need.

    Hope it will help.

    No.

    Anyone, who pretends to be a system admin must know what is SQL server, SQL database and how to connect to it.

    P.S. I don't belong to CuteSoft support team. Just a user, who cannot control himself when the answer is so obvious.

    Best regards.

    Ghazala :

    the DataProviderType and the UserAdapterType specify the class name for intergration .
    In ver1.1 , the settings is write on the web.config .

    Now we move them to the database .

    The CuteChatConfig.exe is just for setting these settings .

    Terry,
     
    I have tried every thing you guys are telling me on this post. I created the udl file copied the url from there paste it in your exe file. did every thing a developer can do. But the line in the step 4 that
     
    "In the User Adapter Type and Data Provider Type fields, you need to specify the full type name of the provider and the name of the assembly containing the provider implementation"
     
     
    made me confused that i am missing something. I checked the users roles too to corrrect the sql server problem.  I think the above point is not a problem. Hope it will get solve. If i want to specify DataProviderType and the UserAdapterType by myself what should i need to mention over here. Import.xml don't have anything about their values.

    Ghazala

    the answer is obvious to who ?
     
    you're wrong Ib, i think it;s simply bad coding. look at the folder structures of that thing, they got files all over the place. i left the web.config untouched, they probably hard-coded sampledata as the db/virtual name in there. what's so hard about a sql connection seeting ? it's just a uid and a pass. when i changed the db/virtual names. i got something, but i don't want to use sampleportal when i go live.
     
    I also hate the way cutesoft adds files all over inside those cute_* folders. i have never seen anything like this before

    When there's exception "SQL Server does not exist or access denied." , It's all because the connection string is not configurated correctly .
     
    odonel do you get problem on configuring the connection string ?

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    About the DataProviderType , UserAdapterType ,
    Please check the SamplePortal\Web\CuteChatIntegration\DataProvider.cs
    It's a example to write the custom data provider :

    SamplePortal\Web\CuteChatIntegration\DataProvider.cs
    namespace SamplePortal.CuteChatIntegration
    {
       public class DataProvider : CuteSoft.Chat.DataProvider
       {
       ...
       }
    }
     

    Now , the class name is SamplePortal.CuteChatIntegration.DataProvider , and the project generate the SamplePortal.dll ,

    So in the CuteChatConfig.exe , the DataProviderType should be :
    "SamplePortal.CuteChatIntegration.DataProvider,SamplePortal"
     
    Regards , Terry .
