moving SQL DB

[lvvwd]

I need to move my Lansweeper DB from SQL05 to 08. When I modify lansweeperservice.exe.config & web.config to point to the new DB, Lansweeper stops working. What else do I need to do to point Lansweeper to a new DB?

What happens when you try to access the web or configuration console? If there are any error messages, could you send screenshots to support@lansweeper.com. For easy reference, also include a link to this forum thread in your email.

1. stopped lansweeper service
2. backed up DB
3. copied DB from old to new server
4. synched DB users
5. restarted service
6. edited config files

Could you clarify which steps you took to move your database?
