Hello all, I have managed to create "SetupActions.exe" according to steps described by Scott Golightly on Apr 6(Subject:How to create and populate DB) After running the "SetupAction.exe" in the command prompt(as an administrator) i got the following as the output:-
-Setting up database -Config.Appsettings: -dbserver is .\MSSQLExpress -installPath is C:\StockTraderDemo\ dbadmin is sa authType is SQL .......................................(cursor stops here) Does this mean it that it finished populating database? How do I knw that I finished populating the database???. While the command prompt runs at following path C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data,it creates two files:- 1)StockTraderDB.mdf----SQL Server Database Primary Data File 2)StockTraderDB_log.LDF---SQL Server Database Transaction Log File But I am unable to open the file instead throws an error saying "its being used by another process". I did not understand why?? . I am running the whole process on Windows XP OS With Regards, Vineet Ghatge H
