MICROS Database not starting

[themicrosman]

Running MICROS RES 4.10. I want to open a database that I got from another MICROS server to have a peek at the setup. I installed the MICROS.db file in the DATABASE/DATA directory. The IP, computer name and POS version of the new server are the same as the one I got the database from. Yet when I try to start the database it wont start. I copied the log file and listed it below. What am I missing here? I feel like I forgot something. It seems like the SQL service wont start.

Did you copy over the encryption keys as well?

 

[themicrosman]

I figured it out. I used the Database Manager. I should have done it in the first place. I guess I am always looking for a shortcut. HAHA. Thanks

Oh ya. Always use the DBM! Glad you figured it out
