Thread Encryption Password on DBISAM when Migrating
Wed, Aug 27 2008 3:22 AMPermanent Link

Pierre du Plessis
Hi there,

I'm trying to migrate a DBISAM4 database to EDB2.  All seems to work, but for the
encrypted DBISAM4 tables, it fails.  I can't seem to find a way to specify the password in
order for the tables to be migrated.  I looked at the migrator parameters but there's no
option for this.   Is there a way to specify the old password?

Many thanks,
Pierre

Pierre,

Yes. It's indicated using the parameter "TablePasswords", as in the
following example:

MIGRATE DATABASE FROM "DBISAM 4"
USING
"DatabaseDirectory" = 'c:\MyDBISAMData'
"TablePasswords" = 'MyOldPassword'
WITH DATA

Pierre,

I missed a ',' in the previous example.
The correct syntax is:

MIGRATE DATABASE FROM "DBISAM 4"
USING
"DatabaseDirectory" = 'c:\MyDBISAMData',
"TablePasswords" = 'MyOldPassword'
WITH DATA
