Configuring the server database

Winshuttle Server supports SQLite, SQL Server 2005, and SQL Server 2008 as database options. The Express versions of corresponding SQL Server can also be used. See the Winshuttle Server Admin Tool Guide for additional information.

  • Beginning with Winshuttle Server 10.6.1., the default database for Winshuttle Server is MSSQL 2008.
  • For Winshuttle Server 10.6 and earlier, the default database is SQLite. (SQLite is a file based database that resides in C:\Program Files\Winshuttle\Server\Manager\App_Data by default.)

You can change the Server Database setting by opening the Administration tool, selecting the appropriate database type in the drop menu, and then providing a valid connection string for the selected server. See the following figure for reference.

Please see database compatibility under preparing for deployment for additional information.
