Hi Roberto,

No I don’t. What errors are you getting? Different versions should be ok in theory.

Cheers,

Rhys

Very good.
I need a similar configuration, but to 2 MySQL instances, dif versions as MySQL5.0 and MySQL 5.1. I am trying on dirs /usr/local/mysql50 and /usr/local/mysql51 but with errors yet… do you have a tuto to this other especific case ? I continue testing other ways, i will post later… (my case is Fedora Linux 13).

I actually just opened a connect case for this truncation error. While I have a way around it (select into temp tables with the ANSI WARNINGS on and off, then EXCEPT the two tables), it’s still aggravating. Feel free to vote on it.

Hi,

Thanks for pointing that out, I obviously forgot to include that! I’ll get the post updated and give you credit in the next few days.

Helpful article! There was just one thing I noticed that you didn’t include. On the SQL task, under “Result Set”, you need to assign the result column to the @BankHoliday variable. This process does not work until you do so.

Yep, probably quite simple to get all process ids with a specific name and then kill them one-by-one. I might have a stab at it in a day or two if you don’t.

Cheers,

Rhys

This script works until you have multiple processes with the same name. Try opening two or more notepads and kill them. You get a big fat error. Anyway around it?
