EAServer 6.3.1

I need to setup a database connection (connection cache in 5.x) for a SQL Anywhere 11 database located on the same PC as EAServer. I plan on creating some components using PowerBuilder 12.6 that connect to the database.

I'm also getting an error connecting to EAServer from another PC:

SystemException: CORBA::NO_PERMISSION

I am using the admin userid/password.

Hi Roland

Have you resolved your connection problem?

I know it's a daft question but are you using the 32-bit ODBC? EAS was a 32-bit process.

Otherwise I think it's pretty straightforward.

If you are still stuck I can open up EAS here and take a look for you :)

Cheers

David

Yes thanks. Now that I created one, it is simple. Other than the Userid/Password there are only two field to fill in:

Database Type: SQL_Anywhere

Database URL: jdbc:odbc:driver=SQL Anywhere 11;uid=dba;pwd=sql;eng=WizSource11



Now I just need to get a component to connect to it.

I figured out why the Profile window in the PB IDE couldn't connect, the 'Login Name' is actually admin@system.

I still need to figure out how to add an ODBC database connection to SQL Anywhere 11. I already have a system level ODBC profile.

No. I've created a replacement for EAServer and wanted to be able to compare the two.

Nice! Hit me up on LinkedIN to get my contact info if you want to discuss anything else EAS related, I've done quite a bit of EAS over the years.

Hi Roland;

If you want a test case as well as EAS coding examples, my EAS framework is still available on SourceForge as well as a Demo App, as follows:

Framework: https://sourceforge.net/projects/stdfndclass/files/FrameWork/EAServer/Archive

DemoApp: https://sourceforge.net/projects/stdfndclass/files/Applications/EAServer/eStore

HTH

Regards ... Chris

This is for my own research purposes. I would have used 5.5 but I couldn't get the manager app to work. If I could get 5.5 working I will switch to that.

6.x was mostly a trainwreck.  The last good version was 5.5.  If you can talk them out of upgrading, I would.  That being said, I think db connection caches were still valid in 6.x, no?

Hi Kevin;

EAS 6.3.1 was not too bad compared to the early 6.x releases. However, no v6.x that I tested (way back when) could hold a candle to the v5.5 performance. That is because EAS was re-engineered in the v6.x to use a JavaBean wrapper around the PB NVUO's vs EAS 5.5 that used a directed JVM to C++ InterOp.

Yes, EAS 6.x releases still used the same DB cache mechanism as in v5.x.

Regards ... Chris
