Moving an Elevate Database |
Fri, Oct 23 2009 2:39 PM | Permanent Link |
"Daniel Kram" | During our Alpha testing, before our rollout to clients, one of our testers
did the following: 1) They ran our program and it (the code I write created the tables, imported the data all fine and dandy. The folder for the Elevate files tables, data, etc, say it was C:\TestingElevate\DB 2) The Tester then moved the files to a different folder, say C:\MyNewFolder\DB The application then would not run because it could not find the folder C:\TestingElevate\DB. I do configure the Configpath at startup and this Configpath was pointed to the new location. I think I needed to do something with the catalog, but not sure what. I reviewed information in this post: http://www.elevatesoft.com/newsgrp?action=searchopenmsg&group=16&msg=2097&keywords=move* catalog*#msg2097 I see the tables, but in the Manger, if I do a query, no data is returned. FYI this link is broke: http://www.elevatesoft.com/edb1d7_creating_configuration_objects.htm The link above, is in this post: http://www.elevatesoft.com/newsgrp?action=searchopenmsg&group=16&msg=2097&keywords=move* catalog*#msg2097 |

There are two things that the directory needs setting for: 1) the configuration files and 2) the database files 1) is set using the engine.ConfigPath IF UseLocalSessionEngineSettings is False or session.LocalConfigPath if True This is the path to the .EDBCfg file 2) is set using SQL via an ALTER DATABASE statement and is the path to the .EDBCat file Check that both these are correct and things should be OK Also remember that EDBManager is just another app and that whilst ALTER DATABASE will affect your app if the same configuration file is pointed at the configuration information specified in EDBManager is only used in EDBManager and not in your app Roy Lambert [Team Elevate] |

"Daniel Kram" | The solution was to use the latest version or at least a newer version, of
the EDB server than I was using. Once I did this, then all I had to do was issue the ALTER DATABASE "mydb" PATH 'mypath' command. |
