[opencms-dev] OpenCMS and SQL server 2000 problem

[Eoin McCarthy]

Hello,

Does OpenCMS 5.0 work with SQL server 2000 ? I've tried the configuration
procedures in the archives (see below) and
the adjustment provided by Anil Patel. I still don't have a working
configuration. 

Does anybody have a working OpenCMS and SQL server 2000 combination ?

Thanks,
Eoin

Hi,

I updated the opencms.jar file with this query file - replacing the
com/opencms/file/mssql/query.properties file
with the one you provided (file dated 13/06/2003). I still get the same
error. 

An earlier posting reports also reports this error.
http://mail.opencms.org/pipermail/opencms-dev/2003q1/003469.html. I don't
know if
that was resolved.

Thanks,
Eoin

fix.
