Moodle/SQL Server 2008 on WAMP

[arunattupurath]

Hey,

I followed the instructions on docs given for Moodle on Sql Server 2008 . I am using apache on windows. There is an error I face " A problem occurred inserting current version into databases ". Just before that I get "Unicode data in a Unicode-only collation or ntext data cannot be sent to clients using DB-Library (such as ISQL) or ODBC version 3.7 or earlier. moodle" . I am using free tds .

 

What am I doing wrong here ?

do you need to use MS SQL? if you've got apache running instead of IIS you may as well make your life easier and just use Mysql

As usual, the PHP manual has it covered.

 

PHP: mssql_query - Manual

Yes , I know with MySQl its a breeze . I have done it , No problem .. happy life . But then this time I am using SQL Server 2008 . I knew there were changes necessary , but I thought ' what the heck ? As long as it works! ' . Some have reported successful installation with sql server 2005 though .
