Setting up a new board

[Toake]

I am getting the error in NMR when I try to create the update file. Yes, I am editing the files in the WGSERV directory

[lucid2310]

are you running NMR as admin, it will throw an exception at least on my PC (win 7) if it's doesnt have full permissions.

I uninstalled everything (WG and nmr), removed all entries from registry, reboot, reinstall following every step in the guide again, making sure to open NMR as admin, and I still get that error. The only thing I can think of, is that I did not install any hotfixes for sql, i cannot find that file anywhere. if can send it it'd be nice? However, the files convert with 100% success and I can edit anything in NMR just fine, just cannot compile an update, not sure if the hotfixes would resolve that issue but it's worth a shot...just cant seem to find that file anywhere...

Not too sure on the whole pervasive thing. i downloaded the same 9.5 that is mentioned in the post, when i look to see the codes installed for it, it shows demo for pervasive.sql 9 server and registered (paid for) key for pervasive.sql 9 workgroup. I dont have the $85,666 minimum payment required to buy that and I'm pretty sure its not needed, considering how many boards are up and edited. I am referring to the hotfix mentioned in the first post, when I say I didnt install the hotfix, and need that file.

You can download it for free from their website. Just need to create a (free) account: http://www.pervasive.com/database/Home/ ... SQLv9.aspx (the windows file under "PSQL v9 Updates")

But here it is:

Quick question do I actually need PSQL ,FuGlobals and Dailsoft? I have been running my server without these for about 6 months now and have been having no problems at all. I have a fully edited realm (new classes, races, items, and NPC's). Also if it matters, I'm running it at the moment on a laptop that is only like 2 years old that I have XP installed on.

Nope. PSQL is just a newer btrieve engine, could provide more stability but also allows use of external utilities to access your data (e.g. for displaying on a webpage). FuGlobals is great for a variety of things such as online user listing, paging, repeat commands, etc. And dialsoft control is really only used as a way to prevent more than X number of connections to your box by IP address.
