Question

I have following this link to create my SQL Server database during installation of my Winforms application. But I got this error :

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name : Stream

Note : my connection string is

Data Source=MyServerName\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=SSPI;

and also my database should create on server.

Please ask me if any thing is unclear…

Answer 1

I bet that the error raises on this row:

Stream strm = Asm.GetManifestResourceStream(Asm.GetName().Name + "." + Name);

You need to have a file named sql.txt in your project and you need to edit its properties and set its build action to embedded resource
