I had my boards set up in access and they kept dying, so I moved scrapped them and am starting over trying to instal them in sql server..

I followed the documentation to the best of my ablilty, and set up the db, and seem to be connecting to it ok, but whenever I Try to post a message or create a topic, I get the followign error message:

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'CAT_ID', table 'lobbygodsdb.daytona.FORUM_CATEGORY'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.

Anyone ever seen this before, or have any idea why it's not generating a value? I've completely scrapped everything and reinstalled 3 times now, and I get this every time :(

did you let setup.asp create the tables in your SQL DB, or did you upsize or import the Access DB?

yes, for it to work correctly you need to let setup.asp setup the tables.

did you try using setup.asp?rc=5 ?

When you are asked for a username/password, you need to use the username/password for your SQL Database, not for the forum.
