sql server

Hi,

We have a current Drupal 7 site using SQL Server 2012 but need to export the database and import into MySQL.

SQL server has worked ok but due to the lack of module support we need to change the database to MySQL.

Are there any steps to do this online specifically for a Drupal website?

We are preparing to implement Drupal 7 for our content management, and are considering both WAMP and full Windows (I don't know what that is called). Are there as many extra modules if you use the full windows with SQL Server modules? Do you just use the same modules and change them somehow to work with SQL? Any insite is appreciated.

thanks

I created this group to see what kind of interest there is in running Drupal 7 on a Windows environment. There is already a group to dedicated to Drupal on IIS, which has a good following of people interested in getting Drupal running under Microsoft's Internet Information Servier. The group is mostly focused on Drupal 6, and has some good content.

I wanted a group to discuss the specific issues around running Drupal 7 on Windows, particularly the use of Microsoft's SQL Server as a replacement for MySQL. This is made possible by the work done by a team at Microsoft that wrote a driver for SQL Server, and then packaged up the whole thing as an installable item.

Hello, everybody! I just finished a book, Pro Drupal 7 for Windows Developers. It should be going to press this week and be available mid-February.

The book is an programmer's introduction to Drupal, coming from a Windows developer's a point-of-view. I cover the Drupal page lifecycle and how it differs from the .NET page lifecycle. I talk about the hook model and how it differs from .NET's event-driven architecture. I also have an introduction to PHP for the C/C# programmer, since PHP might be new to a lot of Windows developers.

Hi Everyone,
