Hi,
I accidently removed the MSDE and found my BCM without database. Now I
reinstalled BCM from the MS download area. There's a problem with the
database link somehow.
"Business Contact Manager is already enabled on this computer. To use this
feature, you must restart OUtlook."
"Business Contact Manager for Outlook database cannot be loaded.
The action cannot be completed because Business Contact Manager cannot
access the database. The database is currently stopped.
Do you want to change the database configuration?"
yes!
"Business Contact Manager for Outlook could not find the database you are
looking for."
The following service doesn't start...
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL
Server\MSSQL$MICROSOFTSMLBIZ\Binn\sqlservr.exe" -sMICROSOFTSMLBIZ
I have two instances under C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\
there's MSSQL$MICROSOFTSMLBIZ and there is MSSQL$MICROSOFTBCM
The last one is the result of the new installation, in the first tree,
there's not a lot left, only a log file of the original (now gone)
installation. The new installation has a binn directory.
Is there a graceful way to recover from this situation? I have some
accounts/contacts in the old databas (I have the database files copied to a
safe place).
Suggestions are very much welcom.
Thanks,
Ivo
