VS 2008 Database Project - During Deploy 'Data

问题:

I am using VS 2008 and have inhertied a database project that I am trying to deploy. The deploy I am doing is to a new database. (as if I were setting up a new installation)

The Deploy Action is: Create Scrip and deploy to Database.

I get the following error: Schema.dbschema(0,0)Error TSD01268: SQL Execution error: A fatal error occurred. The variable DatabaseName could not be found.

The DatabaseName is defined in the project properties.

If I look a the deployment script I see the declaration is commented out. I can remove the comment and run the script manualy and it works, but when I regenerate the script the declaration is commented out again.

/*
:setvar DatabaseName "TestDb"
:setvar DefaultDataPath "C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\"
*/
GO

I have searched for a setting that would cause the declaration to be commented out, but haven't found anything.

I want to be able to run the deployment script without editing it everytime.

Found it!

In Database.sqldeployment there is an option under Advanced Options called "CommentOutSetVarDeclarations".

Have you specified in the project settings that you wish to always re-create the database when deploying? IF not, try setting this option to see if that resolves this for you. See this MSDN article for more details.
