Default v7 enviornment with W2K server problem - 09-28-2004 , 04:56 PM






I am having a problem getting 6 new workstations (XP Pro) SP1 Sony VAIO's
to work in the Pervasive v7 enviornment. It seems like I can only get one
PC onto the server (W2K Server) at a time. I have only 6 users with a
license for 12.

Any ideas? I don't want to upgrade to 2000i or V8 because my company is
actually going to a different accounting package later this month. It would
be a waste of money. They will only use the v7 for lookups.

Thanks-

It would help knowing what Status code (numeric) or error message that you get
back when it fails. Also, can you verify in the Pervasive Monitor on the
server, in the Resource Usage screen, that you actually have 12 licenses? This
is an unusual number for PSQL7...

Bill,

Another question--

Here's the situation- I am going to set up a 2003 server specifically for
Pervasive 8 for a package called Profit.

I have a 2000 server with Pervasive v7 already in production that is now
working fine with the new XP Pro workstations.

Will there be a problem, or know of a problem, if these two verions of
Pervasive are active in the same production enviornment? For example if a
user connects to the v7 database and then connects the v8, will there be
any complications? Will it corrupt the data....

Thanks-

It will not corrupt the data.
You will most likely need the newer V8 client installed on the client
computers. There is not a clean way to have both the V8 client and V7
client both installed, in fact the V8 client install wil remove the V7
client components so there are no conflicts.

If they are both (or at least the application running on the
Pervasive.SQL 7 server is a) transaction interface (Btrieve API)
application then the new client should work fine to both servers.
