Hi,

does anyone has any experience of installing Liferay using SQL Server as database ? Any particular problem with installation or performance ? Which version can I use? Maybe I have to use a legacy instance SQL Server 2000

Thanks

+1  A: 

Liferay can be configured with any database that supports JDBC driver, which you can download from Microsoft to SQL Server 2000.
See liferay configuration details from here: http://www.liferay.com/web/guest/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Database%20Configuration#section-Database+Configuration-IncludingTheJDBCDriver
I have installed the portal using the provided Hyper SQL and migrated to both DB2 and MySql without a problem (demo data needs to be deleted anyway after deployment).

Thanks for your reply, i've also installed Liferay Portal with MySql many times, but i have no experience of it running on SqlServer, so i was asking for any comment/experience about it.
