I can't believe I couldn't find a working solution to this after an hour of searching. I'm following this article on Entity Framework 6.0 which gives a simple walk-through on Code First. I created the project and installed the latest EF Nuget package for the project to compile. I also verified that I have Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Express LocalDB installed which came with Visual Studio 2013. I don't have any other instances of SQL installed on my local computer. The program runs and entries are added to the database and outputted in the console. But when the article says "check your localdb" it doesn't say how! I don't see any '.mdf' or '.ldf' files created under the project folder. I tried every way to connect Visual Studio's Server Explorer to LocalDB. The wizard cannot locate (localdb) or cannot find any provider in Server Explorer to accept connection string like (localdb)\v11.0;Integrated Security=true; I've seen this asked several places in StackOverflow but no answer works or marked as answer. Please help, this doesn't have to be this frustrating!

连接Visual Studio服务器资源管理器到LocalDB的步骤是什么?


当前回答

我遵循了上面的步骤,但我忘记在Visual Studio 2015配置之前安装SQL Server 2014 LocalDB。

我的步骤如下:

安装SQL Server 2014 LocalDB; 打开Visual Studio 2015和SQL Server对象资源管理器; 在SQL Server标记下找到您的LocalDB。

希望这对大家有所帮助。

以admin用户运行CMD。

Right click on cmd, and select open as administrator type : cd C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\120\Tools\Binn type : SqlLocalDB start now type : SqlLocalDB info Shows the running sql instances available... choose what you want... to find more about the instance type : SqlLocalDB info instanceName now from VS you can setup your connection In VS, View/Server Explorer/(Right click) Data Connections/Add Connection Data Source: Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient) Server name: (localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB Log on to the server: Use Windows Authentication Press "Test Connection", Then OK. job done

好的,回答我自己的问题。

连接LocalDB到Visual Studio Server Explorer的步骤

打开命令提示符 运行SqlLocalDB.exe start v11.0 执行SqlLocalDB.exe info v11.0命令 复制以np:\…开头的实例管道名 在Visual Studio中选择工具>连接到数据库… 对于服务器名输入(localdb)\v11.0。如果它不起作用,请使用前面复制的Instance管道名。您还可以使用它来连接SQL Management Studio。 在下一个下拉列表中选择数据库 单击OK

使用SQL Server 2017和Visual Studio 2015,我使用本地主机\SQLEXPRESS

请使用SQL Server对象资源管理器(SSOX)

与其他答案不同,这种方法使用: —无特殊命令。 —无复杂配置。 只需使用SQL Server对象资源管理器

这很简单……

从“视图”菜单中,打开SQL Server对象资源管理器。

右击{YourTableName}表>视图设计器

完成了。

这对我很管用。

打开命令提示符 运行"SqlLocalDB.exe start" 输出说明"LocalDB instance "mssqllocaldb" started." 在VS中,查看/服务器资源管理器/(右键单击)数据连接/添加连接 数据来源:Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient) 服务器名称:(localdb)\MSSQLLocalDB 登录服务器:使用Windows身份验证 按“测试连接”,然后确定。
