Create subscription failed.

Hi
I am using merge replication to sync sqlserver 2000 sp3 database and sql
server ce 2.0 sp3 via PPC 2003. I received the following error.
"Sql CE Exception: Create subscription failed:
system.Data.Sqlserverce.sqlceException"
"Create subscription failed (27750 - 8004005)"
Please help.
80004005 is a generic access denied. Are you sure the account you are using
to pull the subscription is in the PAL of your merge publication?

Create database using dmo and sql2005

The following code which worked just fine with sql2000 sp3 no longer
works with sql 2005. The error I receive says: "The file filename.mdf
is compressed but does not reside in a read only database or filegroup.
The file must be decompressed".
This happens on the line of code where I wrote <--PROBLEM.
Can anyone help?

}Is the drve or folder compressed? Perhaps 2005 does a check against this whe
re 2000 did not?
(Storing database files as compressed files has never been supported.)

don't think it ever checked for it. It looks like 2005 makes some kind of
check. This is from BOL 2000:
'os_file_name'
Is the path and file name used by the operating system when it creates the
physical file defined by the <filespec>. The path in os_file_name must
specify a directory on an instance of SQL Server. os_file_name cannot
specify a directory in a compressed file system.

Yes, SQL 2005 checks whether the newly created file is compressed.
The folder where the data files reside must not be compressed.
