Greetings.
I am having difficulty moving a SQL Server 2000 database over to
PostgreSQL 8.0.3.
In SQL Server, I am performing a backup of the database I want to
move. I save that backup on my Desktop.
That backup is in Microsofts own format, PostgreSQL will not be able to
read this.
I am then opening up PGAdminIII and attempting to perform a Restore of
the database saved on my Desktop. The first step I take is to create
a new database, MyDB. Next, I highlight my new database and then
select Restore from the Tools menu. The Restore Database window pops
up and I Browse to the database backup I've saved on my Desktop.
After selecting the backup, the 'OK' button stays grayed and I am
unable to proceed.
Any ideas as to how I can work around this? Thanks in advance.
Use a program such as Aqua Data Studio (http://www.aquafold.com) to
connect to the MSSQL db and export the data as INSERT statements. Then
run the sql in PGAdmin.
