Stick with the 5.0.0 community installer for now. You can upgrade the core later. Are you saying that no tables were created at all? or just the stats table wasn't created? If you're saying that absolutely no tables were created at all, then something is likely wrong with your datasource or DB connection. I am only suggesting this because (to my knowledge) no one has had this issue before with the 5.0.0 community release (released in June 2008) and MSSQL. Here are some examples of this to check: * What driver are you using to connect to the SQL database? (you want to be using the JDBC driver and not the ODBC driver) * When you're in the CF Administrator, have you verified that the connection between your DSN (with the JDBC driver) can successfully connect to the empty database? * Check the DSN settings in the CF Administrator (maybe someone turned off access for creating tables or something) * Verify that the SQL user has access to write tables (owner, or less). * Verify that you are using the minimum requirements for FarCry 5: CF 7.0.2+ and SQL 2000+ (although I suggest 2005 or better - I personally haven't tested it in SQL 2008 yet - Is that what you're using?) * If all of the above passes, try eliminating FarCry as the culprit -- create a temp cfm file with a simple <cfquery/> to create an empty table. See if it lets you create the empty table with a field or two. If not, review the CF error and go from there. -- Jeff Coughlin Web Application Developer http://jeffcoughlin.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "farcry-dev" group.
