SMS Order System Database layout

In this guide we create an example database layout for the SMS Order System example application that uses data stored in an SQL datatabase. We use the Microsoft SQL Express database server that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website.

Step 1. - Download and install Microsoft SQL Express

You can download the Microsoft SQL Express Database Server from the following location:

Download details: Microsoft SQL Server 2022 Express Edition

Step 2 - Create your database tables in Microsoft SQL Express

You can create a database and the appropriate database tables by opening a windows command prompt (Start->Run->cmd.exe), and starting the SQL Command interpreter by typing:

Once the SQL command interpreter is running, you should enter the following commands

create database ozeki
GO

use ozeki
GO

CREATE TABLE orders (
 id int IDENTITY (1,1),
 shop varchar(30),
 orderdate varchar(160),
 nescafe varchar(160),
 lipton varchar(160),
 sugar varchar(160)
);
GO

sp_addLogin 'ozekiuser', 'ozekipass'
GO

sp_addsrvrolemember 'ozekiuser', 'sysadmin'
GO

Step 3 - Make Microsoft SQL Express ready to accept your username and password

Unless you have mixed mode authentication configured in SQL express, you will not be able to connect to your database from Ozeki NG because Ozeki NG runs as a system service in the background. To enable mixed - mode authentication, you should open the registry editor (Start->run->regedit.exe) and in the Registry you should change the LoginMode value from 1 to "2", here:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQLServer

LoginMode =2

After this change you might have to restart the SQL Express to make sure the changes take effect.
