I have been using Oracle XE and has a backup of the app folder containing all the database Objects I need to restore this database on to a different Machine Bu I cant find a way to do this.
I have tried to reinstall Oracle on the new PC and replace the app folder of the current Installation but the database and restarting the services but I am getting the error that the network adapter does not know the sid given.
How can I do this and is it Possible?
You need to replace only the oradata folder.

I have deployed my project on the server and also exported the database on the server.
Now I would like to skip the installation. How is it possible?
I tried to put the 'Settings.txt' file in App_Data and also the 'InstalledPlugins.txt', but it didn't help.
'Settings.txt' needs to be updated with new SQL Database in your PROD server. Just copying over will not help. If you just copy over, then NopCommerce from PROD will look for Database in your local or dev PC which is not accessible (in most cases)
'Settings.txt' stores db connection as ADO.Net connection string. so you can edit easily.
i am creating a web application in asp.net with database on postgres. i have successfuly created a database backup by putting the destination of database backup on the webconfig file. the web application succesfully creates backups when published on windows server, however i was wondering if the server is changed to linux the destination folder would be invalid.what could be the solution for it to work on different OS??
another problem is that the postgres installation could be on any drive in linux whereas rightnow in my webapplication i open the system diagnostics to run the pgdump command using the info.filename="C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\9.3\bin\" + commandType + ".exe ";
anyone has solution for multiOS database backup for postgres using asp.net?? is there any solution to this??
You can continue to use your backup scripts on Windows. pg_dump will happily connect to the remote database on the Linux box. E.g.
pg_dump -h my_linux_server ....
I strongly suggest reading the PostgreSQL docs on backup/restore. Consider setting up PITR in addition to periodic dumps. I'd recommend running PgBarman on the Linux server (archiving to an external drive, NAS, or network share) for point-in-time recovery, plus periodic dumps to the Linux box.

I installed adventure works, and I followed the instructions on this page:
How to: Create Connections to SQL Server Databases
basically nothing appears in the drop down, in step 2.
I cant even attach the database without getting an error, nor drag it to the web form.
It tells me that the database cant be attached cause it is version 705, and the server supports version 655..
Also what is teh difference between attaching the database and connecting to it?
I went to the installation center of 2008, and clicked on show installation info..I got this:
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Setup Discovery Report
Product Instance Instance ID Feature Language Edition Version Clustered
Sql Server 2008 SQLEXPRESS MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS Database Engine Services
1033 Express Edition 10.1.2531.0 No Sql Server
2008 SQLEXPRESS MSSQL10.SQLEXPRESS SQL Server Replication 1033 Express
Edition 10.1.2531.0 No
so I guess it is installed on my computer, but I cant access the application
You need the database to exist in an instance of SQL Server (or whatever RDBMS you so choose...but most likely, SQL Server). To do this you can do a few things: namely restore a *.bak database backup file of AdventureWorks, or you can attached the mdf and ldf files (database data and log files) to get your database online.
basically nothing appears in the drop down
Do you have an instance of SQL Server installed on your machine?
Also what is teh difference between attaching the database and connecting to it?
Attaching the database is using mdf and ldf files to get your database online ready for transactions. Connecting to the database is creating a connection between a client application and the aforementioned database. Two very different steps of the data access process.
Attaching to a database is necessary when the database file(s) are in a location other than the default location. You don't really "connect" to a specific database per se. You connect to a sql server instance which contains a list of databases on that instance (or referenced by the instance).
I have made my database in SQLExpress and its a master database . I would like to create a CD for my project so need the database file. I am not able to find that file please suggest a solution
thanks!
Your database files would be in the App_Data folder by default if you are using SQL-Express provided with Visual Studio.
You can generate an SQL script of your database which can be used to re-create it in different db server by running the script again. For this right-click on the database in the Server Explorer and select Publish to Provider.
You'll need the .mdf and .ldf in the SQL Server installation directory, but if you've created everything in the master database, I'd recommend creating a different database and moving everything there instead. The master db shouldn't be used for stuff like that.
I have develop IBM Message broker flow database application in windows xp environment. the database accessed using ODBC datasource. basically, I use compute node with esql programming to select query in database, and I set the datasource in the compute node properties.
Now want to deployed my project to AIX server. but, I dont know how to set ODBC datasource in AIX server.
can you help me to how to set odbc in AIX server, can you help me to solve my problem ??
Thanks
You need to create an odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini file which has the information about your data source in it, then setup environment variables (LD_LIBRARY_PATH, ODBCINI) to point towards your ini files, driver and driver manager binary files.
