    Upon trying to use the mdid2migrate, I get an error

    Unsupported database type

    I’m moving from mysql to mysql. The previous mysql is older, running on windows server 2000 ( it’s been long overdue to migrate from this machine)

    I’m attempting to import the database into a newer ubuntu mysql 5.1 server, are there any blatent issues i should be aware of?

    Hi,

    I am working in a Visual Resource Library in a small university. I have been looking into open source image databases to contextualize a few small collections that we own. I am working on a Mac OS X Snow Leopard. Can you tell me if MDID3 would be compatible with my cpu? Could you recommend a few sites that I could review to get a sense of your database?

    Thanks,

    Angela

    I am interested in INSTALLING MDID3. I have asked our Fordham University IT dept. for assistance with this, but they have refused to help. I need to know what technical requirements one needs to install & run MDID3. Does one need a separate server for it? I am the Visual Resources person here at Fordham and we have a large digital image collection.

    I would appreciate some help on installing MDID3. Please contact me.

  5. One of my colleagues attended VRA in ABQ recently and I was intrigued by the MDID session abstract in the program. I am the Collection Manager at Electronic Arts Intermix, a non-profit video art distributor in New York City. We are currently in the planning phase of developing a web-based streaming video resource for educational institutions.

    I am interested in learning more about MDID and possibly meeting with some of your development team.

    Many thanks,

    Hi, we have Heather Seneff coming down to Colorado College from the University of Denver this afternoon to demonstrate MDID to our faculty. They are FINALLY ready to look at it after years of my prodding them along. She asked us to install the image viewer on the computer she will be using, but we are having problems installing it. Could you please walk us through it? Thank you very much!!!

    I tried installing MDID3 7 months ago, and the finished product didn’t work. At the insistence of our MDID2 community, I’m taking another shot at this.

    I joined the mailing list, but it’s proven a pretty poor way for me to find answers. Likewise the install documentation has not been updated, leaving me to guess at important factors such as “What should I do if OpenOffice no longer provides version 3.2.1″ or “What about python-ldap-3.2.11″.

    I’d like to open a dialogue with someone who has successfully installed MDID3 and gotten it working as intended.

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Hello, I would like to learn to manage our MDID2 problems. Yesterday and today I have not been able to access the mdid.org.
    Has this wiki been taken down? Or do you think this is an issue at my end?

  11. We are planning to upgrade from MDID 2 to MDID 3. Will our existing slideshoes be transferred/updated?

    What are the requirements for migrating the mDID v3 SQL database from SQL 2005 to SQL 2008? Are there any system variables to consider, specific config files to modify or issues to be aware of?

    I’m not sure what this means or how do go about fixing – any help would be appreciated…

    I’m trying to migrate our MDID2 database to MDID3 and when I run the command to do the migration I get conn = pyodbc.connect(‘DRIVER={SQL Server};%s’ % connection)
    pyodbc.Error: (’28000′, “[28000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
    Login failed for user ‘WPC\\PICHARDOV’. (18456) (SQLDriverConnectW); [01S00] [Mi
    crosoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid connection string attribute (0); [28000]

    ARDOV’. (18456); [01S00] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Invalid connection s
    tring attribute (0)”)

    Not sure why it’s trying to connect to the sql server using my name when the MDID2 config file has the right account info as well as the MDID3 DB setup and running.

  16. Have installed MDID3 on a new server (Windows Server 2008) and trying to convert from MDID2 to MDID3. Got the system installed, and conversion run, but it produces no results in a search. Site mdid3.indstate.edu, also, is it possible to login with using LDAP like in MDID2? Paul

    Hi, I’ve recently assumed the position of Visual Resources Curator, but the former curator did not leave administrator log in information. Is there any way that I can have admin settings configured to my log in?

    Thanks,

    I am interested in learning the ideal/ recommended image type (jpg, tiff, etc.), pixel dimensions and resolution for images uploaded to our collections within MDID. We are in the process of developing best practices for our VR office and art department faculty to follow, and this information would be helpful. Thank you.
