251.0. "Data Distributor and rdb7" by CHSR36::LCONS () Fri Nov 29 1996 09:05

	
	A cust. is trying a local transfer with DDD (X6.0-5).
	On a Rdb 7 database
		create transfer into new

	start transfer ...

  	%DDAL-I-READTRDF
	%DDAL-I-ATTACHSDB
	%DDAL-E-BADDBINFO (3 seconds after the attach)

	Questions:

		What means X in the version ?
		Is it working on rdb 7 or have we to wait for ROR7 ?

	I have sent DDD 6.0-11 to check if the last DDD version is working...

251.1Have them upgrade to version 6.0-11BROKE::PROTEAUJean-Claude ProteauFri Nov 29 1996 20:1810
    
    The X in the version most likely means that a special version was made
    for that customer.  Don't worry; there's nothing peculiar or
    unsupported about it.
    
    When Rdb was sold to Oracle, they changed the name of the product.  DDD
    did not recognize Rdb 7.0 as Rdb because of the product name change. 
    Version 6.0-11 should correct that.

	Merci Claude,

	The problem with the X version is to know if the bug fixed in this 	
        special version is also fixed in 6.0-11 (Null terminate string with     
        Sybase)

	If the problem is fixed they will upgrade, if not what can they do ?
	Is it fixed in version 7 ?

251.3We'll get back to you on thisBROKE::PROTEAUJean-Claude ProteauMon Dec 02 1996 09:466
    Louis,
    
    I've asked someone to look into this so that we can give a definitive
    answer.

    The bug is NOT fixed in ROR V6.0-11.  It is fixed in ROR V7.0-0, which
    has not yet been released but which we are working to complete very
    soon.  Note too that the problem also appeared in SQL V6.0.  I don't
    recall if SQL fixed the problem in their V6.1 or if they waited until
    their V7.0.  Since ROR V7.0 will be supported with SQL V6.1 or V7.0, if
    your customer has SQL V6.1 it would be worth finding out from the SQL
    group if the problem was corrected in SQL V6.1 or not.

	Can they use ROR 7 FT3 for their tests ?
	They plan to use ROR 7 with RDB 7: in this case SQl will work ?

251.6YesBROKE::PROTEAUJean-Claude ProteauTue Dec 03 1996 14:075
    Yes, see notes 8.7 and 8.8 for the kits.  If they use the latest ROR
    7.0 Beta kit with the released SQL 7.0, the uppercasing problem should
    be fixed.
