hi,

i purchased the applicaiton two weeks ago. When we installed and run on our server it gives error that we could not debug. I think it may have to do something with specifying database name. We could not find the refeerence to the database name that is specified in system. However, there is a not on instruction about choosing database name. Are we missing any files? please advise

regards,

Hiren

Hiren,

 
If you continue to have the error you described, please email it to support and we'll see if we can assist with the debugging.

It's possible that the error is related to the SQL setup, so let's make sure that is correct first.  In the install.sql script, there are not currently any places that you need to replace your server name as mentioned in the setup documentation.  If you review page 6 in the setup documentation, it describes how to configured the web.config file to point at the database you have installed.  This may be the missing step in your installation at this point.

Hiren,

You can name your Database anything you want to. However, I would suggest naming it somethig that will let you remember what application is using it.

[ For example: if I were to install another application such as Community server I would lean toward naming my database something to the effect of  Commserv.]  

After you have created your database in MSSQL this will be the name that you will use in your Web.Config file.You can locate your DB on the same machine or on another dedicated Database machine as long as the name of the DB is correct and the path/address to the DB is correct.

Cheers
