Cannot find member name System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError

This exception message has caused us problems. Long story made short, we see this with a remote .net assembly running under IIS 6.0 on a 2003 Server with SP1 and the calling client is an XP machine.  It seems SP1 installs a never version of System.Data.dll.  There is a hot fix for this, though the hotfix does not resolve the issue, it only gives the calling client a more meaningful message.

If you are using .NET Remoting on a 2003 Server, do not install SP1 until you know it's safe.

  • the system.* dll's in %systemroot%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322
    have the following versions:
    Server (1.1.4322.2300)
    xp sp2 client (1.1.4322.2032)

    this is resolved with the hotfix in mskb:887549

  • Surprisingly! It is like you understand my mind! You seem to know so much about this, just like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the content home a bit, but other than that, this is informative blog post. A good read. I’ll definitely revisit again.
