I just installed the 0.9.4 release of Gforum on a W2K box w/ ActivePerl. The backend is MS-SQL - the install seemed to go off without a hitch, however it seems there are a few glitches with this combination.

Although posting new messages seems to work, REPLYING to them generates the error listed below. Should the post_latest_poster field be set to be nullable instead?

Also, adding moderators and users to groups seems to work only sporadically. Any ideas, Alex?

TIA!

Hi,

0.9.4 has some issues with MS SQL, a lot of the functions do not work. We will be releasing the last beta today which should work much better. We are just doing some final testing on it now.

Cheers,

Alex
