Hi,
I'm doing a site migration for a client. I've made a terrible mistake of signing up with GoDaddy for one of their Premium web hosting accounts. That account is suppose to support a MS Database.
Since GoDaddy doesn't support connection through MS SQL SERVER Enterprise Ed., and only support a web front control panel like DBMS. I've had to painfully generate insert statements into .txt file with APEXSQL Script to export out the db on the client site, and run the insert statements through goDaddy's web based SQL Query Analyzer in order to import data into the new db created on GoDaddy.
Since web pages easily gets timed out, I can only do 5000 or so insert at a time. For a 1 million record table, i have to spend hrs just doing the copy, paste, run of the insert statements; and that's not even the worst part.
After I've done run the inserts thru SQL Query Analyzer, I realize that some of the rows in the Godaddy database are missing. I've already checked... If I run the insert statements generated by ApexSql Script through the Query Analyzer in MS SQL SERVER ENTERPRISE Edition, none of the rows are missing; but when I run the insert statements in the one provided by GoDaddy's web front, for almost all the large tables, there are always some rows missing.
This is becoming a huge problem for me... Because the site migration is suppose to be "silent". AND I can't have "silent" migration if there are rows and rows of production data missing in DB. I've tried to find out which rows are missing... but I can't find any general patterns. Also, the # of rows that are missing are in the range of hundreds to thousands, I can't really afford to do manual insert by hand.
I've tried GoDaddy customer support.. and as we all know, GoDaddy support is a joke.. They don't know anything about anything... (I'm NOT JOKING)
I'm just wondering if anyone has had any similar experiences and know what might be the cause of this problem?
ANY INSIGHTS WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED... I"M REALLY IN DISTRESS!!!!
