There is Azure SQL server with name xxxdb10.database.windows.net that is up and running. I am trying to create DB there and I have to use specifics application in order to have proper DB structure. Everything works with SQL Server Express as you can see below, program add file location automatically. But when I try to point to Azure SQL server and do the same application does not recognizance path and I got this error below. What to use for database file location in case of Azure SQL server please, can you help?
With SQL Server Express:
With Azure SQL server:
• I would suggest you use Microsoft SSMS (SQL Server Management Studio) tool to connect to the Azure SQL Server created in Azure instead of SQL Express. Since SSMS is only a tool for managing various types of SQL Databases locally or in Azure, thus it should be promptly used for creating such Azure databases. Please refer the link below on detailed documentation and information regarding this as well as refer to the snapshots depicting the usage of SSMS as a prompt tool for connecting to Azure SQL databases and server.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-sql/database/connect-query-ssms
In the above snapshots, you can see that we can connect to an Azure SQL Server and creating a database in it through SSMS.

I have a web app published on Azure.(created locally via visual studio)
I ve also migrated my main Database(Azure Sql database) and connected with the web app and of cource already created an sql server instance.
My problem is with my local db file .mdf file in my App_Data folder.
When i published my app returned error below:
provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 52 - Unable to locate a LocalDB installation. Verify that SQL Server Express is properly installed and that the LocalDB feature is enabled.
How to attach .mdf file ? and associated it with my sql server instance?
Thanks
I think you can't use SQL Server Express (pretty sure there is no Express installed). Why do you want to use SQL Server Express?
Anyway, you can migrate it to Azure into SQL Server Compact - http://www.asp.net/mvc/overview/older-versions/deployment-to-a-hosting-provider/deployment-to-a-hosting-provider-deploying-sql-server-compact-databases-2-of-12
But that way is not very efficient if you plan to implement any type of replication - any instance will have own db - and some other drawbacks.
I believe that the best way here is to use SQL Azure and migrate your data into it if there is no need in something like SQL Server Compact/Express.
I have completed with the process of creating webapp + mysql with different deployment slots. I have also configure bitbucket on Azure new portal (https://portal.azure.com). I have Linux system.
I want to import existing Database, from local to Azure. I have tried with Mysql workbench but its giving me Failed connection.
So my question is, How to import existing Database on Azure portal?
In regards to your comment from yesterday, you either try to connect to an Azure SQL Database with the MySQL Workbench, which will not work.
Use another tool like SQL Server Management Studio or JetBrains DataGrip for that.
Or you're using the ClearDB MySQL offer.
Then your connection string should look like this "Server=eu-cdbr-azure-north-b.cloudapp.net;Port=3306;Database=myDataBase;Uid=myUsername;Pwd=myPassword;", which I was assuming when you wrote that you used the webapp+mysql template.
Or you're hosting your own MySQL Server as a Virtual Maschine, which would also be a different server name, e.g. yourpublicipdnsname.northeurope.cloudapp.azure.com
I have read many articles but i cannot be confirmed if linked server is supported in SQL Azure DB(PAAS)environment? I read somewhere that it is applicable only in hybrid environments.
Can anyone please confirm if linked server can be used with databases in azure and not just in hybrid?
Linked server are not supported in SQL Azure; you can only create a linked server in an on-premise SQL Server to a SQL Azure database.

I have just created an Azure Website and Linked SQL Database.
I have a SQL Server 2008 SP2 database on my local machine. Is it possible to detach the local .mdf file, FTP it to Azure and then attach it as a SQL database in Azure? The only other way is to export the scheme and load this, followed by the data.
In the absence of detaching and attaching DBs, I have come across "SQLAzureMW" which looks very useful in guiding me through this process.
Thank you in advance.
You can deploy an database from Management studio to Azure.
I want to migrate an existing application from SQL Server to to SQL Azure. I am using "Linq to SQL". The application is local, what i assume is that i will only have to change the connection string and the application will be connected to the cloud instead of local database and no change is required at code level.
If you already have your database migrated to SQL Azure, then yes all you will need to do is change the connection string and open the SQL Azrure firewall to allow your clients to access the DB (this you can do in the portal).
However, while SQL Azure is very close to SQL Server, it isn't exactly the same. Lots of links to official variations can be found in this article or you can try running the SQL Azure Migration Wizard
