Jan Ferguson Data Software Solutions, Inc. ![]() | If I understand you correctly, you can install (or copy) the dbsrvr.exe
file to any folder/directory you want to. You can then place your database directories anywhere you want to as well. It is HIGHLY recommended that you place your data files on the same server, not the same directory, as the dbsrvr.exe application. -- Jan Ferguson [Team Elevate] Thomas wrote: > Hi, > > how can at with a installer a C/S Database directory?

How can this Directory with a third party installer to the C/S(e.g. Ini or a registry entry with the installer). |

Raul ![]() | I assume you wish to set the database directory automatically with the installer?
The info is stored in the dbsrvr config binary file i think and is not externally editable as far as i know - you mustuse the serevr admin API functions. I can suggest 2 options: - database directory can be set as relative path. So for example you can pre-create a database named "MyDB" and then set the directory to ".\MyDB". Now if you deploy the dbsrvr config file it will alsways be relative to the dbsrvr.exe and under the \MyDB folder - either in your app or thru installer (or helper app_ you can remotely manager the dbsrvr - see "Serevr Administration" section in the manual (http://www.elevatesoft.com/manual?action=viewtopic&id=dbisam4&product=r&version=XE&topic=Server_Administration). See "AddServerDatabase", "ModifyServerDatabase", etc Raul <<Thomas wrote: Hi, how can at with a installer a C/S Database directory?

Raul ![]() | Thomas,
Sorry i should have been clearer - there is a binary file in the same folder as dbsrvr.exe called "dbsrvr" (no extension) - this is where the database info is stored and you just need to copy it with your installer if you pre-configured a database name and directory.
