issues installing v10.0

Post by gertone »

Installing the latest EssPIM I was told that I needed a PRO license to access the server (which I do have BTW)

Now it seems something messed up the DB

Please make a copy of your DB, delete all the data from it and forward to us. We'll be able to quickly fix the issue then. Thanks!

Hi Max, thanks for your reply
could you please expand on how to
copy the DB and remove all data from it?

note this is a server license, so I have a windows server with a DB server and an epim db file, but I access this (connect) from a windows client
- my personal login tells me to connect to SYSDBA on the server
- the issue happens when I try to do exactly that

Can you physically get access to the database file? If so, please create a copy of it (right click - copy), then paste it into another folder on your local PC. Open the database file locally with EPIM 9.x, then going from one module to another - select all -> delete, after that make sure to optimize the DB in File->Database Management and when this is done, forward it to me via PM here in the forum (or share the download link). Thanks!

Before I go installing and older Essential PIM.
Is there an other option
eg.
access Firebird directly through SQuirreL with SYSDBA credentials
run a sql update (the one I assume you would be running on my empty database)
wil make a backup of the database file (I can get to it, no problem)
This seems a whole lot more convenient

Another option would be to wait a bit till we release a fix. I think it's going to happen today.
