Update:   06-MAY-2020

I realized that what defines a version of PB are the DLLs. Since I already have a copy of PBv12.1, and I want to update the PBv12.0 app I have on my Win10 VM, all I need to do is to copy the \SHARED\PowerBuilder folder from my Win7 VM and replace the wsame folder in my Win 10 VM. I also copied these three files from the C:\Program Files (x86)\Sybase\PowerBuilder 12.0 folder:  pb.ini, pb120.exe, pb120.exe.config

This works! Mostly.
On my Win 7 VM, when you run PB the build number is 7055.
On the Win10 VM, when you run PB the build number is 6518.

Still, the PB version on Win10 is now 12.1, so serious progress has been made.


Q: Any idea why the build number in the Win10 VM is not 7055, as it is in the Win7 VM?


Thank You,

Olan

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Windows 10, 64 bit o/s
VM


I moved one of my PBv12 licenses to this new VM.
I managed to get SYSAM running by installing it to "CL\users\olan.knight\Sysam".
Got PowerBuilder 12.0 installed and running!!!!

Now I need to upgrade the build to 7055.
When I atempt ro run the EBF20016, I get this error.

Q: Anyone know how to resolve this error?

 

Thanks,

Olan

Chris -

   Great idea, excpet that I cannot do that. I work from home (for which I am eternally grateful) and I connect to a VM in a remote location.  Even with that, I tried the SAFE MODE reboot - and no one could get to the VM, not me,not the administrators.  Oops.

   I could try to work with one of the network guys to see if there is some way to boot in safe mode WITH networking.... I think I'll pursue that.


Thank You,

Olan

Hi Olan;

  I would try booting the O/S into "safe" mode and then retrying the install from that mode.

Regards ... Chris
