Medisoft Won’t Restore to New Server
Posted: Mon Nov 20, 2023 2:48 pm
Hello,
I am working to migrate Medisoft Office Hours v20 to a new server and am having issues restoring the database backup from the old server.
When I restore the database from backup/when I launch Office Hours with the copied data, I get the error message “tblView: Cannot perform this operation on a closed dataset”
I’ve scoured the internet and these forums but nothing seems to help.
I’ve tried using a backup taken from Office Hours on the old server, also using the scheduler and then tried copying all the data over from the Medidata folder after stopping the Advantage database - all give the same result.
I also saw a discussion where it was suggested renaming the backup file to a .zip. Doing this and copying the zip contents over didn’t work either.
The new server has a different name and medidata is stored on the C drive instead of the D drive as it is on the old server.
Any pointers would be much appreciated.
