\n\nWhen my test tries to create a table,\nthe program asks the following question:\n<\/P>\n
\nq install server -r testdb<\/p>\nSetting up this machine to be a registered table server…<\/p>\n
Registered table servers must adhere to Microsoft information \nsecurity policies. See http:\/\/programq\/policy for details.\nIf you have questions, contact mailto:qpolicy.<\/p>\n
Do you agree to adhere to Microsoft policies regarding\nregistered table servers (y\/n\/q)?\n<\/PRE>\n
\nIs there a way to suppress the question?\nI can’t pre-create a single server that all the tests\nconnect to,\nbecause multiple tests running simultaneously would\nend up colliding with each other.\nI would prefer that each test run on its own isolated\ntable server,\nbut when I try to install a table server on the machine\nbeing tested,\nI get the above prompt.\n<\/P>\n<\/BLOCKQUOTE>\n
\nWhy not just create an unregistered table server instead?\nJust leave off the -r<\/CODE> flag.\nGive your problem description, there appears to be\nno need for the table server to be registered.\n<\/BLOCKQUOTE>\n\nAh, didn’t know about the ability to create an unregistered\nserver.\nWorks great!\n<\/BLOCKQUOTE>\n\nThe user was apparently so accustomed to creating\nregistered table servers that he didn’t realize that there\nwas any other kind.\nMy guess is that he had no idea what the\n-r<\/CODE> flag did;\nhe just cargo-culted it from somewhere.\n<\/P>\n\nRemember<\/B>:\nThe target audience for Program Q is not\nnon-technical end-users.\nThe target audience is other programmers<\/I>,\nand this person was clearly a programmer since he\nwas writing an automated test!\n<\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
