RE: Structure Location--Best Practices...?

2018-11-02 Thread Epperlein, Lutz (agendo) via 4D_Tech
We use

e.g.

C:\intraplan\intraplan server\intraplan.exe
C:\intraplan\intraplan server\server database\intraplan.4dc
C:\intraplan\intraplan.4DD
C:\intraplan\intraplan.4DIndx

... and so on ..

The folder C:\intraplan\intraplan server is generated by the built process of 
4D.
The advantage is here we can update the whole thing without touching/moving of 
the data file. The update package contains the mentioned folder "intraplan 
server".

Regards
Lutz

Robert,

I tend to go with:

  /database name/
structure.4db
datafile/database name.4dd

Re: Structure Location--Best Practices...?

2018-11-01 Thread Robert ListMail via 4D_Tech
Does using another folder within the 4D folder resolve any problem? My first 
thought was to have the database folder as a root folder and not in another 
folder and TS is telling me the same. I suppose this makes more sense if 
the server is serving > 1 DB. 

Thanks,

R

This is what I do as ell. Placing in program folder is problematic on windows 
and macs these days. 

I also place the built client on C drive in a new folder named appropriately

Separate drive from the OS in a folder named 4D - i.e.

  D:\4D\Data
  D:\4D\Structure
  D:\4D\Backup

I'd stay away from Program Files and the root of C (but a C:\4D\ base folder 
would be fine if you only have one drive).  Anything else should work - 
whatever is easy to manage for you.
