Hello All,
I am trying to migrate my ADFS database from WID to SQL ( SQL 2012 Express) , I have followed the below links, so as per the instruction done the following steps successfully which are - Stop ADFS on primary server, Connect to WID using SSMS , detach the
database , copy to SQL server and attached and changed data source in ADFS server . I am getting the following error while running the powershell command for pointing to new SQL instance and the ADFS service is not running .
Does ADFS service starts after detaching the WID databases ? I am not sure that is the cause if then the provided steps are wrong ? Please let me know if anyone has performed this before and successful .
PS C:\Users\administrator.CONTOSO> Set-AdfsProperties -ArtifactDbConnection "Data Source=[App1\SQLExpress];Initial Cat
og=AdfsArtifactStore;Integrated Security=True"
Set-AdfsProperties : ADMIN0017: An exception occurred while connecting to the configuration service. The configuration
service URL 'net.tcp://localhost:1500/policy' may be incorrect or the AD FS Windows Service is not running.
