Converting access forum to sql server --

I have no problem with the basics but am getting stuck in one spot. When using DTS to import tblAuthor into the SQL database, I keep getting an unspecified error.

The table gets created, but no data gets populated. I've tried every way I can think of with no success.  All other tables and stored procedures import successfully.

I've done a search of forum topics but can't find a related solution post.

Thx,

Ben Peskoe

Are you running this on your local machine?
When running DTS import, make sure you are not using Windows authentication to login to the database and instead login with any username that you have given DBO permissions to.

The biggest issue of using dts for this forum are the many relationships, You need to know what table to improt first. If you import the tblAuthor but do not yet have the tblGroups it will confilct. An order as follows that has always worked for me:
tblBanList, tblConfigurations,tblDateTimeFormat,tblSmut,tblPoll, tblPollChoice,tblGroup,tblAuthor, tblEmailNotify,tblPMMessage, tblBuddyList, tblCategory,tblForum, tblPermissions, tblTopic, tblThread and tblGuestname.

Now this list is sure not static but like I said it worked for me and you will not get any PK errors.

Hello Michael, JodoHost

You seem like an expert on this.  Could you please please help me?

Earlier I upsizing my Access DB to msSQL DB, every thing seem ok.  Then I ran the WWF msSqL setup.asp as well as edited my SQL connection.asp in the admin folder.  I then went to my website forum (http://myweb.com/forum) every thing running.  Just that it seem like nothing is read from this new SQL DB. No forums was displayed.  And I can't not log in with Administrator with Letmein.  This is understandable because I already change the password of the default Administrator.  So I log in with my password, it then forward me to the SUCCESSED LOGIN page.  However, when it redirected me back to the Forum Main Page, I'm not log on, and still no Forums show even though my default Access DB has 200 posts in 15 forums.

I'm hosting with JodoHost.

Thanks for your help in advance!!!

Use Enterprise Manager and see if there is any data in your SQL tables

Open up enterprise manager, click + to open the tree structured extensions of your local server until you get to databases and click on the database you created or upsized for Web Wiz forums. If you click on that database you'll see all tables. Rest see image.
