We're moving a small collection of standalone databases to a new FM10 Server. The upload goes fine, and the database itself works fine after updating the global file references.

Our problem is with all the scripts in the database. All database references in scripts flip to 'unknown'. Is there something we missed in the upload?

We have dozens of scripts, and we could fix them manually but if we just goofed up the upload or an easy global fix is available, I'd much rather go that route.

The databases were all developed in FM8 and earlier on Mac clients. The server is 10 and running on a Windows Server. We're installing a V10 client right now to see if that makes a difference, but from the V8 client we just see broken scripts.

You should fix the file references before uploading to the server.

You will need all your files in the same folder then you can fix them by setting the External Data Sources to

file:[filename]

as the first part of the file reference. This works in single user and server mode. Remove unnecessary file references.

This shouldn't take too long and you won't have to re-edit your scripts, or for that matter any other file reference based parts of your system.
