6. Product compatibilities

EAServer 5.0

If you previously received a private PowerBuilder EBF version containing newer file versions, do not install the PowerBuilder support files included in this version.

If you choose to install the PowerBuilder support files contained in this version:

Before installing this version, back up your existing PowerBuilder files by copying them to another location. Back up the following:

lib/*pb*

html/classes/pbjdbc12.jar

In the setup program, on the Select Products to Install window, click Customize for Sybase EAServer features, and choose the PowerBuilder Support features.

After the installation completes, ensure that the corresponding PowerBuilder version is installed on PowerBuilder client machines. To run PowerBuilder components in EAServer, the runtime dynamic shared libraries for the version of PowerBuilder in which the components were developed must be available on the server. The PowerBuilder runtime files on the client and the server must be at the same build level. Using different build levels on client and server machines may result in unpredictable behavior or data corruption.

You can download the corresponding PowerBuilder Windows client

software from the PowerBuilder downloads page of the Sybase downloads site at http://downloads.sybase.com.

Use the Library Painter to perform a full rebuild of your PowerBuilder application to ensure that all descendant objects are synchronized with their ancestors and to incorporate any compiler fixes in your code.

6.1.1 Known issues

(CR #344244) In order to use remote debugging, the file pbjag80.sl must exist in the EAServer lib subdirectory as a symbolic link to libpbjag80x.sl. On some machines, the installer may create pbjag80.sl as a regular file or not install it at all. If pbjag80.sl is a regular file, remove it. Create pbjag80.sl as a symbolic link to libpbjag80x.sl. For example:

ln -s libpbjag80x.sl pbjag80.sl
