OpenEdge 4GL Lite

[system]

I'm not sure if it applies to 9.04, but I would be surprised if it didn't. I'm not sure how it would affect the SQL version since the Progress DB in the SQL version is just a schema holder. The license is a special 4gl OpenEdge developers license for Epicor. It allows you to directly add, delete, and update the Progress databases from 4gl without having to go through the business objects.

Â
My first project with it in 8.03 was a BPM that would automatically add a "dropship" shipto address to the customer from the process command in Demand for incoming EDI orders. This way our Customer Service department didn't have to manually add the shipto address to the order after processing the EDI demand, thus saving time. Without the new license I would have had to use Service Connect to add the shipto address, a much more complicated and time consuming process. Of course in 9.04 you don't have this problem since it supports the use of one time shipto address, but you get the idea.

Â
Can you tell me a little more about the "new" license? What do you mean direct Add/Updates to tables? Does this only apply to Progess DB version? I see both OpenEdge 10.1b and 10.1c mentioned so does this apply to both 8.03 and 9.04?
Thanks,
Jared

So I got the license codes for the new OpenEdge licensing that allows
for direct Adds and Updates to Vantage/Epicor tables.

What the document didn't say was how to install the new licenses. Anyone
using this new license? If so, how did you install it?

Joe,

I am running the new OpenEdge licensing for 10.1b. I only had to replace the
progess.cfg file then stopped and restarted progress for the new license to
take effect.

The best way to do it is on a separate server. If you call the help desk, you may be able to find someone to help. You first have to uninstall openedge if it is installed, and then install it from your Vantage CD. Use the advanced options and the new license you received. After the installation, make a backup of your progress.cfg found on your live server (epicor\oe101b\progress.cfg), shut down the services, databases, and Adminservice for OpenEdge. Copy the progress.cfg from the first server to your live server then start everything back up on your live server.

I have use the following, too, to upgrade a run-time Progress license to the 4GL Development license.

Summary:

Start server in safe mode -- press F8 when booting up – Just a suggestion

Create the following directories on your X drive – Replace X with your Disk Id

X:\epi-backup\properties
X:\epi-backup\config

Copy the following files for backup

Copy X:\epicor\oe101b\properties\*.* X:\epi-backup\properties
Copy X:\epicor\mfgsys803\server\config\*.* X:\epi-backup\config
Copy X:\epicor\oe101b\startup.pf X:\epi-backup

Insert Progress 10.1B disk in CD drive

Type in the serial number and control numbers when prompted

Use X:\epicor\oe101b as the directory for Progress

Use X:\epicor\oe101b_wrk as work directory

Follow the prompts until installed

Install Progress Service Pack(s)

Copy back the properties, config, and startup.pf files

Copy X:\epi-backup\properties\*.* X:\epicor\oe101b\properties
Copy X:\epi-backup\\config\*.* X:\epicor\mfgsys803\server\config
Copy X:\epi-backup\startup.pf X:\epicor\oe101b

Be careful.

Joe,
Progress apparently made no provision to add incremental licensing capabilities after you get started on Progress/Vantage. I found that (doing it on a test server 1st), I had to backup the database, stop the app and database server, uninstall Vantage and uninstall OpenEdge. Now Re-install OpenEdge but armed with this new license, add it in, re-install service pack & hotfixes, re-install Vantage with patches and then reload the database and with fingers crossed start the database and app servers.

A royal pain just to add that licensing ability. If Steve E is right that he just edited the cfg file, and did none of the above, that will really tick me off!! :)
-Karl

You need to make sure you back up all your Vantage and Progress config property files first or you will lose your Progress server settings if you try to do an incremental Progress upgrade. The progress.cfg file is located in your oe101b or oe10c directory and contains a list of all the Progress licenses YOUR company has purchased. It is a .txt file but not modifiable. This file is updated when you load your new Progress license.

And if I rember correctly, you run setup out of the OE folder on the disc, not the setup in the root of the disc.

There is a MUCH MUCH easier way to do this. Go to 'add components' in the
start menu under 'open edge' it will start the setup program, you can enter
the new codes and be back online in 15 minutes.
You will need to take the DB offline while you do this, but it's pretty
quick and painless.

WOW.

Did you do this, specifically, to add the "new" OpenEdge license?
If it's this simple, why doesn't Epicor now about it?

When I was talking to tech support about this, we tried the "Add Components" and it didn't work. The tech told me most of the time it won't work to add this license, but he has seen it work in a few cases. Must be dependent on what license you started with.

Can you tell me a little more about the "new" license? What do you mean direct Add/Updates to tables? Does this only apply to Progess DB version? I see both OpenEdge 10.1b and 10.1c mentioned so does this apply to both 8.03 and 9.04?
Thanks,
Jared
