Hi,

 

As mentioned in the PowerBuilder 2022 R3, IDE will support windows 11 and Run time will support both windows server 2022 and windows 11.

 

Will PowerBuilder 2019 R3 Runtime will also support windows 11 and windows server 2022, currently we are using windows server 2016 and windows 10.

 

Kindly reply on this to proceed further with migration.

 

Thanks,

Tharani S

We have an application in PB2017R3 that we are running quite happily on Windows 11, naturally we had to test the application fully before we agree for this to be used. But in general I do not foresee a problem, even though Appeon say it's not supported. All that means is that they have not and will not test and support that environment.

Windows Server 2022 is a different question, but again I would expect the application would probaly work fine, but you have to test it first.

Having, said that the migration to PB2022R3 is not that bad. Except for the loss of SOAP and some windows sizing issues it was relativly simple. I would suggest that the PB upgrade is on your roadmap sooner rather than later. There will be other benefits to the upgrade.

Our clients are using PB Application (which is developed in PB2019 R3) in Windows 10 and Windows Sever 2016, they are planning to migrate their OS to Windows 11 and Windows Server 2022, so our PB Application will continue to support their new OS without any change? OR do we need to do any change in our application to support their new OS?.

Normally you need to migrate to PB 2022 to have support for windows 11 and WinServer 2022. But this is for the case you are facing an issue and you want to open a support case in Appeon. If you stay in PB 2019 R3, Appeon support team will probably ask you to see if with PB 2022 R3 the problem exists. If that isn't the case they probably won't do anything. But if the issue exists also with PB 2022 R3, they will either provide a workaround or issue a fix... But this fix will be issued for 2022 R3, not for 2019 R3. As you understand things can become complex.

Hi.

This was asked in the past and as far as I know, the answer is that there are no plans to add support in PB 2019 R3 for windows 11 and windows server 2022...

Correct! Appeon's policy is not to support newer versions of Windows on a previous long-term support version. A long-term support version is in effect a code freeze version that we do our best to do only minimal low-risk changes to keep customers running stably.
