Progress Expolere 10.2A

JamesBowen

19+ years progress programming and still learning.
I just installed OE 10.2A on my workstation and applied the latest service pack. I still currently have 10.1B still installed as I still need to maintain a level of support and development for this version until we fully upgraded to 10.2A.

My problem is I am unable to run two version for the PE (Progress Explorer) tool on the same workstation.

First problem is now the both versions of PE now no-longer retains configured servers. So I have to keep setting up and connecting to our server. (This is a minor problem but is very annoying)

Second problem is I am unable to use the 10.2A PE without java error messages jumping all over the screen (see attached). This is stopping me from creating any new appservers, webspeed and database. Is this a common problem with multiple version of OE installed on the same machine?

Is there any quick fixes I can do and I don't fancy hand crafting the ubroker.properties file by hand.


INFO:
The main production and development servers are Linux.

FOOTNOTE:
I guess in the ideal world the adminserver would host it's own web interface with features of import/export configurations from previous installed version of OpenEdge.

Take a look a prokb # 19360, you need to be running two admin servers with different -port settings (i.e. 20930 and 21931) and different listener ports -adminport.
 
I should explain that I am not connecting to the local Admin Service running on my machine. There is no issue with connecting and authentication with the Admin Server on the remote server.

Issues I am getting are related to the Progress Explore java errors and having multiple version of OE installed on the same workstation installed in different directories.
 
Ok fix the servers not showing first. Look at prokb # P45120 and take care of the DLC problem in proexp.prm. Then make sure you are pointing to 10.2A admin servers on the remote boxes. Progress Explorer 10.2A will not work with a 10.1B admin server
 
KB #P45120 has fixed the first problem now I just need to resolve the java error exception messages. I'm just double checking service packs are all the same.

The latest release of service pack 02 for 10.2a fixed the problem I was having. Case closed. Cecil thanks for your help.
