NeXT Technical Alert 92-3




Summary

The SYBASE AdministratorÔ does not function properly when used on NeXTSTEP Release 3.  


Description

The SYBASE Administrator is a graphical tool which simplifies administration of Sybase databases.  It is provided as part of the SYBASE SQL Server for NeXT.  When the NeXTSTEP Release 2-compatible version of the Administrator is used under NeXTSTEP Release 3, it brings up two Terminal windows and attempts to execute commands in both windows simultaneously, causing errors.  


Solution

Version 4.0.2/P/NeXT/1.0/4 of the Sybase Administrator corrects this problem.  It is also backward compatible with Release 2, so that this one version of the Administrator can be used on either NeXTSTEP Release 2 or Release 3 systems.

Version 4.0.2/P/NeXT/1.0/4 of the Sybase Administrator  will be released on a floppy disk during January, 1993.  NeXT will send the new version of the Sybase Administrator on floppy to all NeXT Authorized Support Centers.  NeXT will also send it to those customers who purchased SYBASE SQL Server from NeXT.  Customers who received SYBASE SQL Server bundled free of charge with their NeXT computer will be sent notification of the new Sybase Administrator release and asked to obtain the fix from their local NeXT Authorized Support Center.  Those customers unaffiliated with a NeXT Authorized Support Center may obtain the fix directly from NeXT.

To install Version 4.0.2/P/NeXT/1.0/4 of the Sybase Administrator:

1.	Delete the existing version of the SYBASE Administrator.  You will probably need to be root in order to do this.  The SYBASE Administrator is usually found in the directory /usr/sybase/Apps/Administrator.  

2.	Copy the new version of the SYBASE Administrator from the floppy disk to the directory from which you just deleted the existing version of the Administrator.
