This is the server we are using

The application loads. After the password is entered these are the messages that appear and I believe in this order.

 

This is AEM data source. There is only 4 items that appear in the ODBC Data Source dropdown. How do I get all of them to show as it does above?

Specifically for PowerServer connecting to SQL Anywhere on a 64-bit machine, you should try the following:

1. Use the native driver option rather than ODBC option in the AEM.

2. Make sure your system DSN is 64-bit instead of 32-bit.

Also, in the "Transaction Objects" section of AEM, make sure SQLCA (or whatever is the name of your transaction object in your app) is mapped to the data source you defined in AEM (e.g. "MAG").

The ODBC Administrator shown above is (32 bit) how do i activate the (64 bit) Administrator?

As I stated before, only 4 data sources displays in AEM instead of 16 or 20 in the (32 bit) ODBC Administrator.

Why is That?

Thank You for your immediate help.

I'm guessing because you did not install the 64-bit SQL Anywhere client. That never shipped with SQL Anywhere 7 and anyway SQL Anywhere 7 is not supported database (as Mike mentioned that's like 19 year old software). You should use a recent version of SQL Anywhere and during the installation process make sure you check both 32-bit and 64-bit client drivers. The PB IDE needs 32-bit and the PowerServer runtime needs 64-bit when you run on a 64-bit Windows OS. If you are on a 32-bit Windows OS then both the PB IDE and PowerServer runtime would just need the 32-bit driver.

you are running version 7 of sql anywhere?  Not 17, but 7 that was released 19 years ago?

Thank You Mike S. I was not aware it was that old. It worked with the previous versions of PB I was using.

Hi Arthur;

  The 64 bit ODBC Administrator can be found in the MS-Windows "Control Panel". When you add a System DSN from there, it will show you the SA driver option for that bitness.

Hi Arthur;

FYI: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/36895472/migrating-sybase-8-to-sybase-16



The same migration procedure should apply to SA7 to SA17.

HTH

This looks purely like a SQL Anywhere migration issue... you may get better response posting in relevant SQL Anywhere forums. Since you are facing issues upgrading, I suggest you run a quick test using the 7.0. Use the native driver option in AEM instead of ODBC. You may find you can connect to it even though technically 7.0 is not a supported database because so old.

If this is a project you are doing for a company, you may want to have that company purchase a premium ticket and get this resolved that way. https://www.appeon.com/premium-support.html I'm afraid trying to resolve this particular issue through the Q&A will be futile.
