Question
How can I initialize or upgrade the AppDB databases without uninstalling and reinstalling AppDB?
Answer
- Navigate to the AppDB installation folder (typically "C:\Program Files (x86)\AccessData\eDiscovery\Database Utility")
- Open "eDiscoDbUtil.exe.config" in a text editor
- Edit the line
<add key="DbServer" value="localhost"/>
to have your SQL server name instead of "localhost" - Save the modified file
- Run eDiscoDbUtil.exe as Administrator
Overview
Typically, the scripts in the AppDB installer are only executed during initial setup. These steps allow you to execute the AppDB scripts post-installation, which could be helpful while troubleshooting database errors.
