Hello

I move to ver. 2.04b4 and I want to migrate a bde database.
I replace the old edbmigratebde.dll with the new file but
when I try to open the migrate database option on elevate menager
it raise the error 401 the module edbmigratebde does not exist in the
configuration edbconfig.

The file exist on the applicaton directory where the edbconfig file reside.
Are there other places where it's expected to be?

Thanks
Sorin



I post here because i can't post on the general group. I don't know why.

Sorin,

Please read the release notes that accompany the release:

================================================

ElevateDB no longer automatically registers external modules that exist in
the configuration file path when a session is connected. There are new
CREATE MODULE, ALTER MODULE, DROP MODULE, and RENAME MODULE statements for
manually registering external modules in an ElevateDB configuration file.
This helps improve session connection performance and allows you to store
the external modules in any location that you wish, not just in the
configuration file path. You can use a query similar to the following to
determine if a module has been registered or not:

SELECT * FROM Configuration.Modules
WHERE Name='MyExternalModule'

If no rows are returned, then the MyExternalModule external module needs to
be registered.

I read and I run the option "Create Database Migrators" on my session but
when I try
to open the "Migrate Database" and move to bde it's raise the error the
module doesn't exist.

Then I try to run:
CREATE MODULE "BDE"
PATH 'C:\Program Files\ElevateDB Additional\Version 2\libs\edbmigratebde
DESCRIPTION BDE Migrator'
and this raise the error (#202 ... is not a valid ElevateDB module)

the path is correct

So what I'm missing?

Thanks
Sorin

(the path is correct)

Sorin,

Actually the path statement is not syntactically correct. It should
look like:
PATH 'C:\Program Files\ElevateDB Additional\Version
2\libs\edbmigratebde.dll'

You forgot the ".dll" portion as well as the closing single quote mark
(unless it was a typo here in the NG.) That's why it is telling you
that it is not a valid Elevate DB module.

Also, unless it was a typo in the NG, you forgot the opening single
quote mark in the DESCRIPTION statement.

Thanks
The installation pass and can see the bde migrator on the "View installed
modules"
but still if I try to open the "Migrate Database" and the bde it raise the
#401 error.

Thanks
Sorin

btw what mean NG?

Sorin,

<< The installation pass and can see the bde migrator on the "View installed

This is most likely because the migrator is referring to the module called
"edbmigratebde", but you called the module "BDE".  Use this to fix the
issue:

DROP MODULE "BDE"

CREATE MODULE "edbmigratebde" PATH 'C:\Program Files\ElevateDB
Additional\Version 2\libs\edbmigratebde'
DESCRIPTION 'BDE Migrator'

<< btw what mean NG?  >>

It's an abbreviation of <N>ewsoup

Thanks but it raise the error:

ElevateDB Error #202 An error occurred with the module edbmigratebde (The
module C:\Program Files\ElevateDB
Additional\Version 2\libs\edbmigratebde is not a valid ElevateDB module)

Thanks
Sorin

Sorin,

As before, you did not enter the path correctly. You need to include
the entire file path, including the extension (.dll in this case).
"edbmigratebde" is not a file while "edbmigratebde.dll" is a file. Your
path statement should read:

PATH 'C:\Program Files\ElevateDB Additional\Version
2\libs\edbmigratebde.dll'

Don't confuse the module name of "edbmigratebde" (not needing the
extension) with the file name of "edbmigratebde.dll" (with the
extension.)

Thanks

I use this statement following the example given on the manual and on the
previous Tim answer.

I try your example on diferent version '...\libs\edbmigratebde.dll'  or '...
\libs\edbmigratebde\edbmigratebde.dll'
and both return the #202 error

Thanks
Sorin
