Status: Unverified
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1B
Windows NT
MS SQL DataServer
SYMPTOM(s):
"MSS DataServer" folder not present within Progress Explorer
Progress installation only has SQL Server7 Enterprise DataServer license installed
Can not upgrade to Progress 9.1C
Can not install another license on server
Can not edit the AdminServerPlugins.dat file
The MSS DataServer plugin is missing from the AdminServerPlugins.dat file
CAUSE:
Bug# 20010130-014
FIX:
Upgrade to 9.1C or higher
If unable to upgrade the workaround is:
Start the _msssrv.exe via the command line or ProControl. Note that all components are installed appropriately and the install completes without problem. By default, the _msssrv.exe is started on port 4446.
To start the MSS DataServer Broker via the command line.
_probrkr -S 4446 -N tcp -H hostname
To stop the MSS DataServer Broker via the command line.
proshut -Gw -S 4446 -N tcp -H hostname
With this method, the client connects directly to the DataServer Broker. No Nameserver method needs to be used.
