    How to export MS Server 2008 database for shared host?

    Hi there,

    I would like to ask for your expert advice please.

    I have created a new website using Umbraco 4.7.1 and use SQL Server 2008 rather than SQL CE version.

    What I am trying to do is, I would like to export SQL Server 2008 database and then import the database into the database with my web hosting company, which is 123-reg.co.uk.

    I have installed SQL Server Management Studio and tried to export data by going into

    My Database (right click) => Tasks => Export data ...during the process I've selected 'SQL Server Native Client 10.0' as my Destination ... (and followed the instruction.)

    Then when I tried to import the exported data into the database at 123-reg, but it said I've exceed the maximum length.

    Could you please help me, what do I need to do? Where did I went wrong?

     

    Thank you so much...

    Hello,

    What you can try to do is do an "Generat SQL scripts" on your database. From there you can generate the scripts to b uild the structure of your database, and you can also select the option to script the data.

    By doing so, you just get a plain SQL script that contains all information: structure, constraints, and data.

    And, since it is just SQL script, I guess it will execute correctly on your hosted database.

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers,

    Michael.
