[Opensim-users] Save OAR .9795 and .9785 / migration from sqllite to mysql ..

[Wordfromthe Wise]

i am running Windows Xp and have no success saving oar files on both
versions OAR .9795 and .9785.
tried it several times and only once  1 sim out of 6 was saved without
errors .. 
i could provide more information if i knew which infos you need ..
 
Also tried it with just a single sim connected to the grid to not stress the
console but without any luck ..
 
the sims itself are running much better than with the .9700
 
Are there any recommendations  on the  file extension .. has it to be  .oar
or can i use the extension i like.
 
And is there another way of  migration from sqllite to mysql  besides  save
oar / load oar ?
 
best regards
Word
 
P.S: this is no complaint .. just a information  .. ty very much Developers
for all your hard work 
you provide for us .. this is really appreciated.

No, SQLite is WAY too weak for any real building and scripting.  The main
reason I went with MySQL is because if using the SQLite you do not have what
is called "persistence."

For example, with the internal SQLite, if you put on a new skin and
clothing, when you shutdown and restart OpenSim you return to the default
Ruth and have to put your skin, clothing, and shape, etc back on EVERY time
you restart.

But with MySQL all those settings are preserved, so you can log out, reboot
the system even, and when you load everything back up and log in, your skin,
shape, clothing, etc are all instact just as you left them when you were
last logged in.

That is just one of several reasons why MySQL is superior to SQLite, in my
humble opinion...

cool idea in general.

But wouldnt it be easier to have the low-end sqlite if it's supposed to be
portable (as in very standalone)?

Actually I missed that!  I followed a few links from there and found exactly
the information I was looking for (I think).  I'll try and test it all out
this afternoon and see if it's as stated.

BTW, for those interested, I discovered that if I install XAMPP (
www.apachefriends.org) I can run MySQL from a thumb and configure OpenSim to
use MySQL using the standard information found various places online.  This
way I can insure that even my "external" MySQL database can easily be backed
up along with OpenSim.

To make things even easier, I downloaded the Portable Apps launcher base (
http://portableapps.com/download) and then installed XAMPP linked from the
same site along with the XAMPP launcher.  The only things that would really
make my day (and I am currently working on accomplishing this) is to launch
OpenSim and the viewer of choice from the Portable Apps launcher so that
OpenSim, the MySQL database and the Viewer can all be launched directly from
a thumb drive and all data saved to it as well.
