    Conversion.

    An ABL client can connect to an OpenEdge database in one of two ways: shared memory (also known as self-service) or TCP (also known as remote). In order for a client to connect via shared memory it must satisfy the following constraints: the client and database are on the same machine; the...

    Question End Progress operation from bat file

    I have a vague recollection of a Progress runtime engineer saying that batch clients should use _progres.exe rather than a GUI client. I can't quote the particulars now. I believe it was more about efficiency rather than compatibility, as there are some cases where the two clients follow...

    Conditional Formatting in MS Excel

    Here is a sample I wrote a while back, it may help: // add conditional formatting for row shading; every other group of 3 rows is light gray v-worksheet:Range( "A4" ):Select. v-worksheet:Range( v-excel:Selection, v-excel:ActiveCell:SpecialCells( xlLastCell ) ):Select...

    Progress installation Java version

    The Java requirements for 9.1D are in Section 1.1.1, Chapter 1 of the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for UNIX, in the 9.1D PDFs provided above by @Osborne. It suggests you need JVM 1.3.0_02 or 1.3.1. RHEL isn't listed specifically; the nearest distro listed in the...

    OpenEdge upgrade from 10.2B to 11.7.5

    There isn't a simple answer to this. It really depends on how your particular use of the OpenEdge platform: how the application is written, which OpenEdge products and components you use, whether you currently use any functionality that has been removed from the platform, whether you have...

    Progress installation Java version

    The other alternative is to open a case with Tech Support. I assume you are on a maintenance contract. If not, you have two problems to solve. ;)

    The Progress documentation should include an installation manual that lists the system pre-requisites for 9.1D.

    OpenEdge upgrade from 10.2B to 11.7.5

    I don't have any experience with Progress Data Servers so I can't advise you on any specifics there. However, I do have some concerns about your plans. Upgrading to 11.7 I don't see the point in this effort. This release will reach retired status in April 2025, a little more than 10 months...

    problem with multiple power bi connections causing error broker

    Okay, it sounds like your database is properly configured for SQL connections and you have the appropriate credentials and privileges. https://community.progress.com/s/article/How-to-troubleshoot-Broker-Rejects-Connection-error-when-connecting-via-ODBC-datasource-DSN This article states that...

    Issue adding an extent to a v9 database

    @TomScott I think you misunderstood. The suggestion from @TomBascom was not to load less data, but rather about how you structure it. Specifically, your application data should be in separate storage areas, and never in the Schema Area. In Progress 9.x and later, you are not limited to just...

    Question Connecting to Progress database thru IBM Cloud Secure Gateway client

    To expand on what @TomBascom said, when a TCP client (whether ABL or SQL) connects to an OpenEdge database, it first connects to a login broker which listens on a statically-defined port. This is the port number you see in your DSN. It is the only port the client needs to know to initiate the...

    PAS licenses for 12.8

    I can't give you a definitive answer, but this interpretation (as many sessions as you want) would not align with the way Progress typically licenses their products. To me, this is the more reasonable interpretation; the countable entity would be the AVM session, not the process. And it aligns...

    PAS licenses for 12.8

    The Concurrent User model was grandfathered by Progress for existing licenses of existing customers. They could keep those licenses and add users to them. But no customers could buy new licenses on that model. I don't have first-hand knowledge of the Access Agent situation, but it sounds like...

    PAS licenses for 12.8

    Caveat: it has been several years since I worked on OpenEdge licensing, so my knowledge is out of date, and I've doubtless forgotten a few things. A license that you purchase has several attributes (this may not be a comprehensive list): the software product being licensed (e.g. Enterprise...
