Here’s another in a long list of cryptic error messages. In this case I am developing a local database component for our SNAPRetail applications and on opening the database for the first time I get a SQLCEException with the message “Not enough storage is available to complete this operation”. Initially, I thought it was a problem with my database, but it is after a little searching I found a post (http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=895861&SiteID=17) on the Microsoft Technet forums that describes the problem as a “DLL Squeeze” and to open the connection to the database at the start of the appliation.
A little more research reveals that the DLLS that are being loaded are sqlceqp30.dll, sqlcese30.dll, sqlceer30en.dll, sqlceme30.dll which are the minium required for SQL Mobile to run.
