    Install 7.1 clean database in SQL Server

    Hi,

    I'm trying to get started with Umbraco 7.1.

    I followed these steps:

    http://our.umbraco.org/documentation/installation/install-umbraco-manually

    I created a new project, installed umbraco using nuget, created an empty SQL Server database, set the connectionstring correctly, but when I start the installer, it just hangs.

    When I inspect the http requests, it's accessing this URL which throws an exception:

    localhost:51306/install/api/GetSetup

    the content is:

    )]}',
    {"Message":"An error has occurred.","ExceptionMessage":"Invalid object name 'umbracoUser'.","ExceptionType":"System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException","StackTrace":"   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj, Boolean callerHasConnectionLock, Boolean asyncClose)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.TryRun(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj, Boolean& dataReady)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.TryConsumeMetaData()\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.get_MetaData()\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.FinishExecuteReader(SqlDataReader ds, RunBehavior runBehavior, String resetOptionsString)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReaderTds(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, Boolean async, Int32 timeout, Task& task, Boolean asyncWrite, SqlDataReader ds)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method, TaskCompletionSource`1 completion, Int32 timeout, Task& task, Boolean asyncWrite)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method)\r\n   at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteScalar()\r\n   at StackExchange.Profiling.Data.ProfiledDbCommand.ExecuteScalar() in c:\\Code\\github\\SamSaffron\\MiniProfiler\\StackExchange.Profiling\\Data\\ProfiledDbCommand.cs:line 299\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.PetaPocoCommandExtensions.<>c__DisplayClassa.<ExecuteScalarWithRetry>b__9()\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.FaultHandling.RetryPolicy.ExecuteAction[TResult](Func`1 func)\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.PetaPocoCommandExtensions.ExecuteScalarWithRetry(IDbCommand command, RetryPolicy cmdRetryPolicy, RetryPolicy conRetryPolicy)\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.PetaPocoCommandExtensions.ExecuteScalarWithRetry(IDbCommand command, RetryPolicy retryPolicy)\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.PetaPocoCommandExtensions.ExecuteScalarWithRetry(IDbCommand command)\r\n   at Umbraco.Core.Persistence.Database.ExecuteScalar[T](String sql, Object[] args)\r\n   at Umbraco.Web.Install.InstallHelper.get_IsBrandNewInstall()\r\n   at Umbraco.Web.Install.InstallHelper.GetInstallationType()\r\n   at Umbraco.Web.Install.InstallHelper.<GetStepsForCurrentInstallType>b__1(InstallSetupStep x)\r\n   at System.Linq.Enumerable.WhereListIterator`1.MoveNext()\r\n   at System.Linq.Buffer`1..ctor(IEnumerable`1 source)\r\n   at System.Linq.Enumerable.ToArray[TSource](IEnumerable`1 source)\r\n   at Umbraco.Web.Install.Controllers.InstallApiController.GetSetup()\r\n   at lambda_method(Closure , Object , Object[] )\r\n   at System.Web.Http.Controllers.ReflectedHttpActionDescriptor.ActionExecutor.<>c__DisplayClass13.<GetExecutor>b__c(Object instance, Object[] methodParameters)\r\n   at System.Web.Http.Controllers.ReflectedHttpActionDescriptor.ActionExecutor.Execute(Object instance, Object[] arguments)\r\n   at System.Web.Http.Controllers.ReflectedHttpActionDescriptor.<>c__DisplayClass5.<ExecuteAsync>b__4()\r\n   at System.Threading.Tasks.TaskHelpers.RunSynchronously[TResult](Func`1 func, CancellationToken cancellationToken)"}

     I don't understand why it would try to access the database tables before the installer runs, that seems a bit strange, or am I missing some manual steps to set up the database before I run the installer?

    Thanks,

    Wiebe

    Hi what credentials are you putting in on the database step of the installer?

    ServerName

    Username

    Password.

    If you open SQL management studio can you log in using those details?

    Charlie :)

    Hi Charlie,

    I didn't get any steps at all, the installer hung on the first screen.

    I think I figured out what was wrong, I shouldn't have configured the connection string in the web.config yet, as the installer assumes that when there is a connection string, the database is already set up, I figured this out by going through the umbraco source code.

    Thanks for the quick response!

    Hi Wiebe and welcome to our :)

    Have you checked that all prerequisites has been installed?

    Could you perhaps try and download webmatrix and try installing Umbraco using it? Once that is done all prerequisites that Umbraco needs in order to work will be installed before Umbraco is installed. Once these are installed you should be able to manually install Umbraco in there future.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Jan,

    Thanks a lot!

    I already found a solution, see my previous post (I think you only saw my first post)...

    I made a mistake, I already added the connection string in the web.config before installing...

    - Wiebe

    I'd like to be able to do the migration to SQL Express but after running the migration through Webmatrix, I can't login to umbraco, nothing happens after entering username and password.  Fresh install of 7.1, login and out fine, migrate to SQL Express, no more fun.  Any ideas?

    It seems v 7.1 stopped crating tables in database predefined in connectionstring on installation.

    In earlier versions I use to set my windows authenticated connectionstring right after Visual Studio project creation before accessing the site for the first time and Umbraco created the tables.

    Sadly that feature is gone and now it instists on creating a sdf file.

    Hi Matthew

    Did you remember to change the connection string manually after the migration?

    Hi Matthew

    I had a similar issue the other day, migrating from SQLCE to real SQL.

    The Webmatrix renamed my connection string name to "Umbraco", and that didn't seem to work well, so I updated my connectionstring and gave it the name "umbracoDbDSN" instead like this:

    <add name="umbracoDbDSN" connectionString="Data Source=SQLSERVER;Initial Catalog=xxxxx;User ID=xxxxx;Password=xxxxxxxx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

    That seemed to work, and I'm able to log in.

    Cheers,

    Niels

    Hi Jan, Niels.  I looked at the connection string but couldn't tell if it was correct or not.  I tried a few of the changes suggested but nothing was working so I blew it off and started fresh with a SQL db from the beginning, rather than CE and trying to migrate it. 

    When I have a chance, I'll go back and try your string, Niels.  When I was doing this, I found a lot of people saying to change the string, and that it had fixed it but not what the string and/or modifications actually were.  I appreciate that you included the actual string.  That will be useful to everyone.

    Hi Matthew

    After migrating the connection string should look like this

    <add name="umbracoDbDSN" connectionString="Data Source=[yourdatabateserver];Initial Catalog=[yourdatabase];User ID=[UserName];Password=[Password]" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    

    Make sure to change the values from [value] to your value...the [] should not be in there either.

    Hope this makes sense and that it's what you're after.

    Thanks Jan, that is clear, although the string I ended up with was:

    <add name="umbracoDbDSN" connectionString="server=.\SQLEXPRESS;database=MyDb;user id=MyUser;password=MyPwd" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />

    It seems to work fine but isn't like yours, no 'Data Source=..." or Initial Catalog=...". I don't think it matters but...   does it?

    Having a hard time upgrading a 6.1.6 site on SQL Server to 7.1.4 using some of the steps outlined above. Here are the errors and steps I've tried to proceed:

    1. Error: DFcmsMacroPropertymacroPropertyHidden' is not a constraint.
      Solution: ran SQL code at bottom of http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/installing-umbraco/46251-Database-error-during-upgrade-to-v7?p=1 to remove constraints
    2. Error: /api/GetSetup causes 500 Exception.
      Solution: removed umbracodbDSN connection string from my web.config file, as suggested at http://our.umbraco.org/forum/getting-started/installing-umbraco/50235-Installing-Umbraco-711-GetSetup-An-error-has-occurred
    3. Error:  after the initial "Install Umbraco 7" screen, if I click either Install, or Customize (and then supply either the connection string to the existing database or do it by using the UI to choose the database), then I get "provider use key supplied is invalid. It must be of type System.Securty.Principal.SecurityIdentifier.Parameter name: providerUserKey"
      Solution:  ?
    And so now I'm stuck. All permissions seem fine, Full Trust environment, etc.
    Any thoughts about dealing with any of those errors in a different way?

    I've just had this problem today.

    The reason is that I used the same script I used to install v6 to install v7. My script would add the databse details into web.config to save time typing the details in. Is there anyway to 'bootstrap' this more, rather than having to type in the details?

    Thanks

    Hello, I'm in the same situation. So where do you put the connection string if not in the web config? Thank you.

    Okay, understand. Remove connection string from web.config and Umbraco 7 installation creates a SDF file. Okay, but my next problem is lazyload is undefined.

    Any ideas?

    For me the problem was that the website didnt have access to the database during the upgrade, then I got the javascript error /api/GetSetup causes 500 Exception. No other error messages during the upgrade process, just an image with paople waving their hands.

    Hello,

    We provide Umbraco hosting and automatically populate the connection string when creating a new installation of Umbraco.

    Did anyone find a way to allow this? I don't really want to make our clients have to manually enter this information!

    Thanks,

    Richard

    Hello everybody. I went through this with Azure. I created an application with a linked database. When I tried to install it always gave these error: 500 Internal Server error /install/api/GetSetup. Analyzing the log I discovered that the installation tried to connect to the database, even though it was a new installation. The log had this error: Invalid object name 'umbracoUser'. I then updated the azure database and unlinked it from the web application and returned to normal.
