Hi all,

I’m having a few difficulties on a Windows server:

•      I want to move the dbfarm to another drive and have altered 
  

the gdk_farm setting in the etc\monetdb5.conf file: gdk_dbfarm=G:\MonetDB5\dbfarm. MonetDB server however keeps creating a new MonetDB dir in the ‘documents and settings’ directory, the last place where I want to store a database. Do I need to alter other settings, or is there another config file?

•      How do you create a new database (on the different drive) and 
  

connect to that one instead of the standard ‘demo’ db?

You will need to edit the script M5server.bat in the program installation folder.

Instead of: if "%APPDATA%" == "" goto skip

set MONETDBDIR=%APPDATA%\MonetDB5

You could do:

MYDBFARM=G:\

set MONETDBDIR=%MYDBFARM%\MonetDB5
