Upgrade to Shared SQL Server Repository
« on: December 04, 2003, 07:59:45 am »
 ???
Having used EA for a year or so (Professional version) I've recently persuaded the dept. to adopt as a standard. Company has decided to buy the corporate version to support sharing of repository.

I must have forgotten something during install of database on server. I'm able to complete a Data Transfer to the database, but I can't connect to it afterwards. When I try to connect to the database model, my connection checks out; I enter details for Connection Name and Type; But when I attempt to Open  - EA crashes.

Also when I try to create a new model I am only prompted to create a file based model, not a db version.

I uninstalled my previous copy of EA before installing a fresh full install (just downloaded from the Corporate area)

Also - Am I going to have to create a new database for each model (for each user)? - most users are without SQL server experience so this job is likely to land on my plate...

Just got in - on about 5th time of asking
Only strange thing I did was enter security key for the file based model already loaded
(No I don't believe this is signifcant either - but it was the only difference!)
