FYI - SC9 Win64 Installer fail

Out of curiosity, not commitment ;), I just tried to install the SC9 WIn64 version on my everyday notebook PC. Switched the virus check off as requested, ran the installer, let it finish, opted for RUN SC9, then the dreaded Firefox message:

Unable to connect

Firefox can?t establish a connection to the server at 127.0.0.1:8090.

The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer?s network connection.
If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.

Yes, I have the same issue. There’s a syntax error in the apache config. Located the issue and reported it to SC.

I uninstalled and wanted to fill in the UNINSTALL page http://www.scriptcase.net/uninstall/ - but there’s no SUBMIT button :confused:

UPDATE- Found the button. Hey SC team, it isn’t exactly intuitive hanging there off the side of the screen and not captioned as “Submit”.

Downloaded again this morning and it seems to be working now, such as it is. Some conversion issues have surfaced, from what I’m reading…

Thanks Gui, yes I know, Scriptcase replaced the installer a day later with the final release. Magic how they can release a final - not working - beta and release the final app one day later :wink: I guess that I can learn from them (lol)

When the beta was progressing, some here were opining that the process was flawed. I thought, hmmm, maybe the beta should be an alpha?

Now that the SC9 release is out my own experience and the ones I am reading about from others make me think maybe this is the beta?

Anyway, my big issue is that ODBC connectors that work fine in SC8.1 no longer work in SC9.

C:\Program Files\NetMake\v9\wwwroot\scriptcase\devel\compat
m_select.class.php 104
2 = odbc_connect(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application, SQL state IM014 in SQLConnect
C:\Program Files\NetMake\v9\wwwroot\scriptcase\prod hird\ado db\drivers\adodb-odbc.inc.php 65
256 = an error occurred while connecting to the database.

I think that is a licence issue? The connection thing has been overhauled in SC9. And AFAIK the supported databases in relation to your licence too?

We are licensed & registered for "V9 Enterprise - Without support". AFAIK there should be no restrictions on database systems, least of all ODBC > MS-Access?

Supported databases:
MySQL MariaDB PostgreeSQL SQLite Intebase Firebird Access SQL Server Oracle Informix DB2 ODBC

… or did you mean SC’s commercial license for their software?

We have a commercial enterprise 10 user licence, but we haven’t been looking into this as we cannot afford to be an early adopter. I have a customer using SQL Server and it was a complete hell to get it working right with the odbc thing. Have you tried to connect using plain php?

One thing that comes to mind is the question of whether you are running sc9 next to sc8. Why? well both use mysql dll’s, but which ones are they using?
If there are indeed two scriptcase version running then turn the sc8 and sc9 off. Then turn sc9 on and then sc8…
You can check (under windows) which dll’s are used (including paths if you so wish) by checking with sysinternals process explorer. Under windos it’ll list details of your exe and dll’s
Maybe that can give a clue…

It’d be something I would check…
But as Aducom said we are not early adopters…
