Hello
I have the lansweeper database on the SQL server. I have to move it to the new SQL box. What kind of re-configuration do I have to carry out? I know when you turn on the Lansweeper configuration utility it ask for a database - is it the only place where this setting has to be changed?
Maybe there ia a document which explains this process.
Thanks.
Marcin.

Thanks.
My DBA is wondering if we could just deattached the dabase files from the current server and attached them to the new server, and after that recreate the users?
Where are lansweeperservice.exe.conf and web.config located?

Yes, no problem. (but take a backup for safety)
Where are lansweeperservice.exe.conf and web.config located?
%programfiles%\lansweeper\service\lansweeperservice.exe.config
%programfiles%\lansweeper\website\web.config

Hello
I do not move the lansweeper but only its database. The lansweeper is installed on the "server1", the SQL is installed on the "server2" - I am going to decommission "server2" and install a new SQL instance on the "server3". What shall I do? Thanks.
