"In which our fearless upgrader rams his head into the wall (again)"
Attempted upgrade: II 2.0 -> r3.
After the debacle that was a hotch-potch restore of the production
system to the test system, and an upgrade thereon, I'm developing

All,
I've added in the Ingres dot net providers as supplied in Ingres R3. We can
write code to connect to an Ingres database fine. But within Visual Studio
you can create data connections via wizards, it has a list of MS and Oracle

I still like my Ant suggestion.  On their own, their insignificant but
working together as a community, they form a strong partnership they
exemplifies the benefits of synergy.  And if you piss them off they've
got a ferocious bite too!

Hi Dudes,
1. I cant work out how to run optimizedb on a specific partitioon of a
table. I've read the manual, but as far as I can tell, it seems to optimize
a partition is not an available option.

I have a customer running OI2 on SCO OSR5.0.5 who will be migrating to new
hardware. At first blush, it was obvious to move to Ingres r3 on linux but
then the idea of Solaris 10 on Intel popped up. Any comments or
suggestions?

I know i asked this about a year ago but the last six weeks of my 2004
archive are missing!
Briefly, I am trying to migrate a user from OopenIngres 2.0 runnig on
SCO OpenServer 5.0.5 to IIr3 running on SuSE Linux (v10 for testing,

Could anyone shed some light on the following problem. I've - finally-
managed to get a C and a C++ compiler installed on a SuSE Linux
box running IngresII R3. SuSe 9.3.
When I try to compile an ESQLC program I get the following:

I am about to dump a complete set of OpenIngres 1.x hardcopy manuals.
They're all there, including IPM, Trusted Facilities, IMS Gateway--the lot.
Plus there is a set of OpenROAD manuals from the same era.  In all about
three shelf-feet of sequestered carbon.

Hi Dudes,
I'm connecting to a STAR server ifrom an installation which has an
ING_SYSTEM_SET specifying a:
    set lockmode session where maxlocks=100;

I want to return a string from a c program back to a abf frame
anyone done this? if so what's the c syntax for returning the value
the doc example is...
*char myfunction()

Does anyone know how to manually restart the recovery server DMFRCP
without having to restart Ingres? Our server is a 4CPU WIndows 2000
Server running Ingres II 2.6/0305.
IVM is showing that the recovery server has mysteriously stopped.

I've just installed IngresR3 on a SUSE Linux box.
I cant find the C compiler on the brat. I asked the Sysprog, and got this
response...
   It would appear not to have a C compiler. At least I can't find
