| 1 | 1 Microsoft SQL Server Installation | ||
| 2 | |||
| 3 | #info("This has been on MSSQL 2000 and MSSQL 2005 (text types are only deprecated in MSSQL 2005, this tutorial won't work when they'll be dropped)") | ||
| 4 | |||
| 5 | #warning("Case-insensitive search does not work with this database; see below for more info. You may want to use the the [Lucene search>code:Applications.SearchApplication]") | ||
| 6 | |||
| 7 | 1.1 Create the xwiki user and database | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | * Use the Enterprise Manager to create a database named 'XWiki' and a user named 'xwiki'. | ||
| 10 | * Set xwiki's password to 'xwiki'. | ||
| 11 | * Give database ownership of the database XWiki to the user xwiki. | ||
| 12 | |||
| 13 | 1.1 Install the JDBC driver | ||
| 14 | |||
| 15 | * Download the [jtds jdbc driver>http://jtds.sourceforge.net/] and install the jar file into your servers lib directory (for JBoss this could be ~~server\\\default\\\lib\\\~~, for Tomcat this might be ~~common\\\lib\\\~~)\\ | ||
| 16 | |||
| 17 | #info("The connection was successfully tested with version 1.2.1 of the driver and version 1.3.1 of XWiki. Some problems occurred when using drivers > 1.2.1 so it might be better to use the old one. ") | ||
| 18 | |||
| 19 | * Alternatively, you can use the [JDBC driver provided by Microsoft>http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=07287B11-0502-461A-B138-2AA54BFDC03A&displaylang=en], however this has not been tested. | ||
| 20 | |||
| 21 | 1.1 When compiling from source | ||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | * Add {attach:xwiki.mssql.hbm.sql|xwiki.mssql.hbm.xml} to ~~xwiki-core\\\src\\\main\\\resources\\\~~ and recompile everything. | ||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | 1.1 When using a downloaded .war | ||
| 26 | |||
| 27 | 1.1 XWiki configuration | ||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | * Tell XWiki to use MSSQL. To do this, edit the ~~WEB-INF/hibernate.cfg.xml~~ file. Replace the matching properties with the following ones (or uncomment them if they are present): | ||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | {code:none} | ||
| 32 | <property name="connection.url">jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://<server-url>:1433/XWiki;tds=8.0;lastupdatecount=true</property> | ||
| 33 | <property name="connection.username">xwiki</property> | ||
| 34 | <property name="connection.password">xwiki</property> | ||
| 35 | <property name="connection.driver_class">net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver</property> | ||
| 36 | <property name="dialect">org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect</property> | ||
| 37 | <property name="connection.provider_class">com.xpn.xwiki.store.DBCPConnectionProvider</property> | ||
| 38 | <property name="connection.pool_size">2</property> | ||
| 39 | <property name="statement_cache.size">2</property> | ||
| 40 | <mapping resource="xwiki.mssql.hbm.xml"/> | ||
| 41 | <mapping resource="feeds.hbm.xml"/> | ||
| 42 | |||
| 43 | {code} | ||
| 44 | |||
| 45 | |||
| 46 | 1.1 Fix search function | ||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | If you try to do a search, via [Main.WebSearch], you will get an error. This is because the UPPER() function doesn not work on TEXT or NTEXT as used by MSSQL 2000 for blobs. The only solution I have found is to remove all the calls to upper() in [Main.WebSearch]. This is however not very practical, because it makes search case-sensitive. | ||
| 49 | |||
| 50 | Alternatively, you may want to use the [Lucene search>code:Applications.SearchApplication] instead of the default search. |
