Moving ListManager with MSDE

If you are moving ListManager and you are using the version which includes MSDE, follow these instructions:

1. Stop ListManager on your old machine.

2. Clear your activation code by opening a command prompt and running the clearactivation command. Change to the lm directory and run the following command:

lm clearactivation

3. Use the service manager to stop MSDE.
 

4. Copy the following files to another location:
 

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\ListManager_Data.MDF
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\ListManager_Log.LDF

 

5. Install ListManager on the new machine. Select "New Install".

6. Stop ListManager.

7. Stop the MSDE service.
 

8. Replace the following files with their equivalents from the old machine:
 

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\ListManager_Data.MDF
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\ListManager_Log.LDF
 

9. Start the MSDE service.

10. To allow your database to be used with your new ListManager machine, you'll need to change the machine name in the Config_ table. To do so, change to the ListManager directory and run the following command on the command line:

lm configmove

11. Update your activation code by opening a command prompt and running the getactivation command. Open a command prompt, change to the ListManager directory, and run the following command:

You're done!
