I am running the WebSharingAppDemo-CEProviderEndToEnd saPLE WITH sqlExpress 2005 Beta as server and havin the SQl Express as Client. The Programs runs well till it reaches to SynchronizationHelper.cs class where it checks CheckIfProviderNeedsSchema(remoteProvider as SqlSyncProviderProxy); from there it tries to retrieve the scope description from the server DbSyncScopeDescription scopeDesc = serverProxy.GetScopeDescription(); Here exception comes as DbNotProvisionedException. Why it so? It says that because the database is not provisioned for sync or you not have permissions to the sync configuration tables(Which is false because user is admin user). Please help me.
