hi any 1 help me with upgrade from 9.1c to 9.1e, i think is only make a dump and load but i dont know if work, maybe some 1 tell the steps for makae this change.

Thanks all the people of progresstalk.
 
backup (well, I must admit that this is a habit of me)
truncate bi
point db to 9.1E
startup the database.

Minor releases don't need a conversion.

9.1E is old. Make sure you at least have sp4 installed. (such a shame you miss all the nice features of more recent releases like 10.1C and 10.2A).

my dear casper thanks for the answer, but the problem is not easy because all my aplication is make to work with 9.1c and i wanto change to another server but is hard to make this change.

maybe if you guide me how.??


thanks
 
Progress always stated that moving to a higher point release within a major release, you do not need to recompile.
So changing from 9.1C to 9.1E shouldn't need a recompile.
So I don't see the problem.

OK casper i see, but i make my bakcup from the original server and db.

i copy to another server, but when i restore the database dont work because say this a copy from original database is not easy make this.
 
Ah, you make an OS copy of the DB. In that case you need to adjust the st file so it refelects its new position and then use:
Code:
prostrct repair <path-to-db>/dbname

That should get rid of error 598.

Assuming, of course, that it is the same platform on both ends. If it isn't, you will need to do a dump and load, not because of the version change, but because of the platform shift.
