Hi guys!
Im trying to access an old database left by my AWOL DBA with view to migrate data to SAGE.
This is a Progress ver. 9 DB in binary as follows; data.d1/data.db/data.bi and data.lg
I have installed OpenEdge 10.2B but I get error as follow:
database has wrong version number (44)
Im not a DBA, but desperate to get these data asap - Is there any documented step to follow to convert/migrate this database into OpenEdge 10.2B?
thanx
Look for conv910 under DLC/bin
Thank Thomas, but I can't find such file - and nothing in the utility folder (bin\101dbutils),
a colleague suggested I should try download version 8.x
Is there a download link for older versions for windows?
Excuse me, momentarly brain lapse. It isn't a separate executable, but rather an option on proutil, i.e.,
proutil dbname -C conv910
Why would you want 8.x? You said you have 9. If you really did have 8, then you would use the 91_proutil in the 91dbutils directory to do conv89 and then use the above to get it to 10.
Either one will only take a few moments. The result is not going to be a fully optimized DB, but if you are just harvesting data from it, you won't care about that.
