Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to porting acs sql to mssql7.0

Posted by Roberto Mello on
You can look at the guide that Ben, David and Don created for porting SQL from Oracle to PostgreSQL at openacs.org/doc/acspg. It's not an easy task especially when there are new versions coming out frequently.

What I think would be best for you to do is wait until ACS 4 comes out. We are waiting for ACS 4 so we can port it to PostgreSQL and it's going to be much better to port it because of the new aD database API.

Porting to MS-SQL now would be a waste of time and effort, unless you want to stay with ACS 3.2.2 (or 3.2.3) forever and lose the delicious goodies in ACS 4.
