Detailed Instructions

For detailed instructions on how to create a database with SQL Server 2012/2014/2016/2017/2019 or Oracle 12c/18c/19c, refer to the database manuals on the ADONIS installation medium in the folder “01 Installation Manual”.

Quick guide: Manually with SQL Server

  • Create an empty database hull with the SQL Server Management Studio.

  • Establish an ODBC-data source. For details, see the information box below.

  • Initialize the database (see Initialize Database).

note

You must create the ODBC data source by using the 64-bit version of the odbcad32.exe file located in the “%WINDIR%\system32” folder. “%WINDIR%” stands for your Windows installation directory.

The 64-bit version of the odbcad32.exe file is supported from ADONIS 9.0. Older versions of ADONIS require the 32-bit version of the odbcad32.exe file to connect to the database.
