What you will see
When installing LDD using Microsoft SQL Server as a database, the tables are not created on the database.
You may also notice that the database.properties file is not changed; i.e., the MSSQL configuration is not saved.
Remedy
Installing LDD using MS-SQL is likely to require additional configuration steps on the SQL Server. It is recommended that you follow all instructions in the to correctly configure LDD with MSSQL.
Here are the main points to remember:
- The MSSQL Server needs to be prepared for installation by creating the database and generating the tables that will be used by LDD.
To do this, a .sql file ( CreateDatabase.sql)is locatedin the mssql\scripts folder within the LDD installer.
- The CreateDatabase.sql file should be run on the SQL server before running the LDD installer.
- The installer modifies the mssql_database.properties file, instead of the database.properties, and it will contain the SQL settings required to connect to the SQL server.
