Cannot delete business space

Post by sabbirehal »

Hi Group,

Can someone suggest the solution to the below error:

"Exception while deleting business space Aware IM server encountered the following
error. Default business space cannot be deleted"

I cannot delete one of my business space.

Thanks
Sabbi

When you 1st ran Aware config tool, it asked you to name a business space.
IN THAT SPACE, it created some 'system' tables... one of which is related to your registration info.

That business space cannot be deleted since it contains the 'system' tables.
What generally happens tho is that you create multiple BSVs and they all get stuffed into that initial DB, cluttering the db and making backup/restores more intricate.

What database are you using?

NOTE: Before continuing, you need backups/exports of your BSVs
One option, if using xxSQL would be to change the connection string inside basserver.props to POINT TO A NEW DATABASE
When Aware runs the next time, it will go to that named DB, and, not finding the system tables, will think its a new install, again asking you for the system database name. You'll be in 30-day mode until you register your product key.

Once you do this, be mindful to ALWAYS create new BSVs in unique database tables, rather than in the system/default location.
You could then re-import the BSVs into this new structure.
Getting data back is another issue - depending on what database you are using.

Any of this make sense?

Jaymer,

Ok, I got it.
I am actually using MariaDB and I already deleted those tables manually from within MariaDB.

Ok, I can leave the business space intact because there is nothing in side.

Thanks anyway explaining the reason for this.

Best Regards,
Sabbi
