Has anyone any experience of installing phpBB2 with an MS SQL 6.5 backend database?
Been given the lovely job of doing this at work and my test install is failing with:
odbc_exec(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Line 3: Incorrect syntax near '['., SQL state 37000 in SQLExecDirect in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\phpbb2\db\mssql-odbc.php on line 171
Any ideas since I speak neither php nor SQL? :shrug:
spooky, I’m trying to set this up myself, just for kicks, but I duno when Database I have running of the addresses, so I’m waiting for my Bro (who the hosting is through) to get back to me…
A while back, a colleague was tasked with writing a web-based stock reporting system. He sat it on an RH7.3/Apache server and is currently running round trying to find someone with a 2k/IIS5 server to migrate it to because the powers that be have found out and want it shut down :rolleyes:
@Dammo - currently in the middle of a remote upgrade to MS SQL7, might have an answer to that question in about 3 hours
For my needs it fits in with external site hosting
Direct DB access not needed just FTP up and run
enter database details and database is autofilled.
For developement I run MySQL + PHP install + Php enabled
simplistic web server on my PC so I can create and mess
as needed then when happy FTP changed files up to main site.
