General portal database queries9/25/2003 3:51:21 PM

0/0

Hi

I am currently running the IbuySpy Portal on my lap top using MSDE. Could anyone clarify a few points for me ...

1) If I buy SQL Server 2000 which I aim to do ... will this simply install over my MSDE and leave my portal database intact and run it as per normal?

2) I currently use web matrix to explore my portal database - I notice that in the users table of the portal the field size property for the key UserID field is set to "4" - does this in fact mean that there is only capacity to have 9999 users and then no more can be added? I assume this is correct.

3) About sql scripts - is there some utility within SQL Server that you can point at a database and it will create a .sql install script that will recreate a database - is this what Query Analyser is capable of??

Any clarification welcomed

Regards

I'll answer what I can:

#2: Regarding the field size, the int data type can hold 10 digits, and is stored in 4 bytes.

#3: In Enterprise Manager, you can right-click the database and choose All Tasks-->Generate SQL Script. This tool will create sql scripts for any objects you specify in the db, but it does ot copy the data. If you want an exact replica of an existing db, look at using Data Transformation Service (DTS), or you can detach the db, make a copy of the db files, then reattach the db files.

Hi

I can see what you are getting at - I am aiming to get SQL Server next month - I think like me you are hoping that there is some Upsizing Wizard as when you upsize an Access database to SLQ .... I was assuming that there was a natural progression from MSDE to SQL ... and the database and the data would remain intact.

I can't really see the point of MSDE if this is not the case ...

Johnny,

SQL Server 2000 will not simply install over your MSDE. It will install another instance.

What you can do, is the following:

1) Stop your MSDE and make a copy of your portal database to a safe place.

2) Uninstall MSDE (this might include deleting leftover directories manually)

3) Install SQL Server 2000.

4) Locate the Data directory of the SQL Server 2000 instance (%Program Files%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data) and copy your portal database files into that directory

5) Attach the portal databases through Enterprise Manager

6) Create '<Machine Name>\ASPNET' as a login on the SQL Server (or 'NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE' depending on operating system)

7) Possibly grant dbaccess to that login with regard to the portal database

8) Add that login as member of the role db_owner on the portal database.

Hi

Thanks for that - I am getting conflicting information on this though - others tell me that you need to create your database from scratch again in SQL Server.

Hi Johnny

Conflicting information about what? The move of physical database files? I've done it in several cases - I've even move a SQL Server 7 database to SQL Server 2000 without problems.

SQL Server 2000 and MSDE 2000 are with minor differences the exact same program. The files are exact the same - with regard to service pack level.

Hi

In a book about Web Matrix I read that you cannot move the MSDE folder / files to SQL, that you have to recreate the database with an sql script with SQL .... as this was in a book I believed it - it gave the impression that MSDE was just for testing, and then you had to start again from scratch when you buy SQL.

Thanks for your comments - I guess I am going to have to ry this!

Johnny B:

SQL Server 2000 will only install onto a Sever and not Desktop platform. What it will do is warn you of this when you try to install and will instead offer to install Enterprise Manager and Associated Tools only.

Once you have Enterprise Manager installed you can reattach your data easilly, and as far as I have experienced, with no data loss whatsoever.

Using Enterprise Manager you can export SQL scripts for any objects you may need them for, including the entire dataset if you so desire.

You're fine! How am I?

You could look into SQL Server Personal Edition which is designed for desktop installs.
