Hello Roberto,

I attempt to build a database with the enterprize sql script today.
Seems like there are mix case problems that might work fine on windows but not a unix machine.

I have problems for example with
tblWL_EmailsTO. It is referenced as tblWL_EmailsTO and tblWL_EmailsTo.
which one is correct?

Same problem with tblWL_AutoWhitelistForceDelivery and tblWL_AutoWhiteListForceDelivery

How does SF handles this, should be case of all tables be lowered on the database?


thanks and best regards.
Atif

hello again,

I see that sf is lowecasing all fields and table names.
so a simple
cat filename | tr A-Z a-z
did the trick

Atif,

You're correct. The script containes the table names in mixed case for readibility. SpamFilter will convert that in lower case before executing it. However running the SQL script "manually" would cause issues on a Unix server, unless it's converted to lower case as you did.
