History of SetupMSSQL

You should first read How to install Bitweaver under IIS 5 ([SetupIIS]).

This guide assumes (and has been tested on):
*Windows 2000 Server
*IIS 5.0
*MS-SQL Server 2000 or MS-SQL Server 2000 Desktop Edition (MSDE)
*Bitweaver 1.0.3+
*PHP 4.3+ or 5.0.4+

#((SetupIIS))
**I had to set up IIS to use ISAPI - don't remember atm if this was a MSSQL-specific thing or just a Windows / IIS specific thing - cruggles
#Setup PHP (with ISAPI)
**Download the [http://www.php.net/downloads.php|PHP 4.x.x or PHP 5.x.x zip package]
**Extract __php-x.x.x-Win32\extensions\ php_mssql.dll__ to __C:\ PHP__
**Uncomment __extension=php_mssql.dll__ to the extensions section of __php.ini__
**__PHP5:__ Add php5isapi.dll against ".php" to Application extension mappings
#Setup DB
** TIP: To set up the databases you can use Enterprise Manager (for SQL Server) or another tool (MSDE does not ship with Enterprise Manager). A good, free one is [http://www.asql.biz/DbaMgr/DownLoad2k.shtm|DBA Manager 2k]. The new SQL Server 2005 Express release can also be used, and there is a tool on the Microsoft site which allows you to browse your databases (you have to use SQL to make any changes though).
** In ''Enterprise Manager'', right-click on the database server, and select __Properties__
*** Change to the __Security__ tab, and change __Authentication__ to ''SQL Server and Windows''
*** Press OK - you will be prompted to restart the SQL Server service.
** Expand folders until you see the __Security / Logins__ folder
*** Right-click and select __New login...__
*** Enter database user name eg ''bitweaver''
*** For __Authentication__, select __SQL Server Authentication__
*** Enter a password
*** Switch to the __Server Roles__ tab, and check the __System Administrators__ checkbox
*** Press OK and confirm your password
** Right-click on the __Databases__ folder and select __New Database...__
*** Enter a __Name__ eg ''bitweaver''
*** Press OK
** Right-click on the newly created database, and select __New / Database User..._
*** For __Login name__, select previously created user eg ''bitweaver''
*** Check the __db_owner__ checkbox
*** Press OK
# Visit your homepage [http://localhost/bitweaver/install/install.php]
# Follow the step and when prompted for database connection details, enter the information as created above.
# If you are unsuccessful at installing, you may need to do the following to get it to work- cruggles:
## Change /util/phpsniff/phpSniff.class.php line 188 HTTP_SERVER_VARS to _SERVER
## Change /util/adodb/drivers/adodb-mssql.inc.php line 661 - 666 from:

{CODE()}if ($len > 4000 ) {
// NVARCHAR is max 4000 chars. Let's use NTEXT
$decl .= "@P$i NTEXT";
} else {
$decl .= "@P$i NVARCHAR($len)";
}
$params .= "@P$i=N". (strncmp($v,"'",1)==0? $v : $this->qstr($v));{CODE}
to:
{CODE()}$decl .= "@P$i VARCHAR($len)";
$params .= "@P$i=". (strncmp($v,"'",1)==0? $v : $this->qstr($v));{CODE}
^Can this be adjusted from PHP.INI? - wolff_borg:
; Valid range 0 - 2147483647. Default = 4096.
;mssql.textlimit = 4096

; Valid range 0 - 2147483647. Default = 4096.
;mssql.textsize = 4096^

Outstanding issues:
*Concatenates wiki body text (assuming at 255 chars)^I think this is a general IE bug? [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1258034&group_id=141358&atid=749176|SF#1258034] - wolff_borg^
