looks like your server timeout.

Probably best to go back to your backup database, delete the field, tblPermisisons -> Read manually, then run the update tool again.

You may also want to do this at a time when the SQL server isn't underload so you don't get the timeout error.

Thanks Borg - I tried this and I received the following error
Also - the server shouldn't time out as there is nothing using the database or SQL server.  Any ideas?

I have had a horrible time of trying to upgrade the SQL version of forums from 7 to 8. 

 

I originally started with ver 7 access and then converted to SQL - now I would greatly like to convert from SQL 7 to SQL 8.

 

I ran the migration tool several times, receiving the above errors. 

I am at my wits end with this and am wondering if there are any wiz/SQL gurus out there that could help.  I am willing to pay for the help needed to successfully upgrade the forums to ver 8.06.

Anyone willing to do this, please contact me via PM and we can discuss details.  The forums are currently located at http://www.uptempoairforums.com

Thank you

Wolf

Upgrading from Access to SQL is probably what's coursed the problem.

The rest of the file should run fine and skip this error. The actual error drops the column 'read' from the table tblPermissions this has been done to make the database compatible with SQL Server.

However, you can either manually remove this field from the database, or just leave it in as it makes no odds as the field isn't used anymore.

maybe I am not leaving important files in the directory structure.  The instructions say to remove all version 7 code...  What files should I take out to do this?  And what files if anything should I leave in?

Version 7 will not work witha  version 8 database as it will corrupt the database.

When upgrading from version 7 to version 8 the only thing that remains is the database, all other files should be removed except for the upload folder if your users have uploaded their own files.
