Hi All,
I am currently working on implementing PowerServer for our application, which is transitioning from a client-server setup to a PowerServer-based deployment.
PB 2022 R3 BUILD 3397
SQL Server 2019
I have created a PowerServer project, built it, and deployed it to a remote IIS server. During the initial build and deployment process, I encountered three main categories of issues:
-
Unsupported (PowerServer):
- I am not sure how to address the items in this section.
- According to the PowerServer documentation, there are no workarounds for:
previewinsert
,previewupdate
, andpreviewdelete
as the request arguments ofSQLPreview
.- The
sqlreturndata
property in the transaction object (suggested to avoid using it). - Data.storage property in DataWindow (Suggestion: Add the WHERE clause to retrieve the data needed)
- The pipeline object (suggested to create an application with the pipeline function and call it instead).
- Are there alternative solutions or best practices to handle these unsupported features?
-
Errors:
- I was able to resolve issues related to incorrect syntax, invalid columns, and invalid objects.
-
Unsupported (DWs):
- This category was resolved by removing duplicate DataWindows (DWs).
While running the application, I am encountering the following runtime errors:
- Error converting data type nvarchar to int.
- String type is not compatible with the mapped property.
- Decimal type is not compatible with the mapped property.
- Execution timeout expired.
To debug these issues, I am using Ascential Test. However, I also encounter a prompt each time I run the application in PowerServer:
- "A new version of Cloud App Launcher is available."
-
How to Avoid Prompts:
- How can I configure the system to show the update prompt only when the version actually changes?
-
How to Resolve Unsupported (PowerServer):
-
Identifying and Resolving Issues:
- What is the best approach to identify all possible issues during the migration process?
- What key areas should I focus on to avoid runtime errors like those mentioned above?
Any guidance, suggestions, or insights would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
