I do not have the option to create an Integration Service project in Business Management Studio

Hi,

I have installed the advanced toolkit for Microsoft Sql server 2005, with the SQL server Business Intelligence Development Studio but I don't have the option the create a Integration Service project. I only have the Report Server project option available.

Do I have to download something else to get it?

I do not have a SQL server instance installed on the machine I installed the toolkit on.

Thank you

What version of SQL Server do you have installed? You need Standard, Developer, or Enterprise.|||

Oh I see, I have the express edition.

I guess I'll get to play with that if we buy one of those editions some day

Thank you

|||Developer edition is $50, but cannot be used in a production environment.

i cannot connect to the database engine ...

I can connect to Analysis Service and Integration Service but I can not connect to the Database Engine. I receive the following error message:

Cannot connect to homebase.

Additional Information:

An error has occurred whlie establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server doesn not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - COnnection string is not valid)(Microsoft SQL Server, Error:87)

(Click on OK to continue)

the problem seems to be Remote Connection is not configured in this server for Analysis Service and Integration Service.

Start -- Programs -- MS SQLSERVER 2005 -- Configuration Tool -- SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configration -- Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections

Now you will have all the Services running on this machine like Database ENgine,Analysis Services, Reporting services, Integration services etc

Expand each one in which you want to enable remote connection adn select Local and Remote connections
