Database configuration

During installation, you either upgraded an existing FASTER Web installation or installed FASTER Web on a new server environment. If you installed to a new environment, you were prompted to create a new database or use an existing, upgraded database.

The following topics describe the configuration steps required for each option:

-> Configuring database for an in-place upgrade on an existing FASTER Web environment

-> Configuring a newly created database in a new environment

-> Configuring an existing database in a new environment

Configuring database for an in-place upgrade on an existing FASTER Web environment

If you selected to install the FASTER Web on an existing environment, the database and the application settings are preserved by the installation process and you do not need to perform any additional configurations.

Suggestion: It is recommended that you read the other sections of this document to verify that the settings are correctly configured.

Configuring a newly created database in a new environment

If you selected to install a new database in the Database Server page, you need to perform the following configuration:

1.     Restore the FASTER Web database of the same version as that of the FASTER Web application installed onto the database newly created by the installer.

For example, if you have installed FASTER Web 6.0.0006, you have to restore database of FASTER Web 6.0.0006. If your database version is earlier than the current FASTER Web version you are attempting to install, then you must contact FASTER support team for the scripts to upgrade your database.

2.     Ensure that the CLR is enabled. If not, then you must run SQLServer.EnableCLR.sql

OR

Execute the following SQL statements on the restored database:

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , '1'

GO

RECONFIGURE

GO

EXEC sp_configure 'clr enabled' , '1'

GO

RECONFIGURE

GO

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , '1'

GO

3.     Run the following scripts (available in the <setup directory>\DBUpgradeTools folder as part of the installation package) in the same order as listed below:

a.     198. RolePermissionFix.sql

b.     199. AfterRestore_SQL2008_2012_R2.sql

Configuring an existing database in a new environment

If you selected to use existing database in the Database Server page, you need to perform the following post-installation configuration:

-> Ensure that the CLR is enabled. If not, you must execute� SQLServer.EnableCLR.sql

OR

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , '1'

GO

RECONFIGURE

GO

EXEC sp_configure 'clr enabled' , '1'

GO

RECONFIGURE

GO

EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options' , '1'

GO

Note: If you select the Database Type as Existing, the existing database must be the same as that of the FASTER Web application being installed. For example, if you are installing FASTER Web 6.0.0006, then the existing database must be of FASTER Web 6.0.0006.

Barcode utility configuration
