    Re: MSSQL on Windows 7

    okay well i got 2k5 intalled and goin , but when i try to add mssql_storeprocedure i get this error

    Msg 1018, Level 15, State 1, Procedure adduser, Line 33
    Incorrect syntax near 'holdlock'. If this is intended as a part of a table hint, A WITH keyword and parenthesis are now required. See SQL Server Books Online for proper syntax.

    Re: MSSQL on Windows 7

    Is this the SQL section or what ?

    Why you want to use MSSQL ? Use MySQL. MSSQL sucks.
    I dont get for what you need SQL on windows in Perfect world section, these files are for linux

    Back to topic:

    I still dont know what you are trying there.

    1. For an online Server you need at least a very good vServer at a hoster somewhere and they will have normal Linux, not CoLinux or whatever so they dont have MSSQL ( dunno but i dont think there is a MSSQL for Linux )

    2. If you want to play alone or host at Home CoLinux and MSSQL desnt have the requirements to host the full server i think ( dunno, never used that crap )

    3. Dunno just wanted to write 3.

    Virtualbox and VMWare are both also server stable, meaning you can (albeit not best choice to use...) use them to run Virtual Servers for you on a relatively strong host machine

    Virtualbox running in headless mode with the pretty web interface for it is very nice for that

    CoLinux on the other hand is very very very not server stable, and any server with Microsoft in its name you might as well just unplug the server and call it 'working' as that is just about all you'll get out of it

    Just switch to MySQL, it;s so much easier to use, and it's cross platform. I run my server off of Ubuntu 9.10 on VMware via my Mac, and I just use pwAdmin instead of iWeb. So make the right choice, go with MySQL!

    There is after all a reason behind why MySQL is by far the most popular database server out there...
