GOAL:

How to migrate a double byte database

FACT(s) (Environment):

UNIX

FACT(s) (Environment):

Windows

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 8.1x

FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 8.3x

FIX:

1. Check the database codepage of the original database by running "DISPLAY DBCODEPAGE(1) through a 4GL client connected to the database.
2. Start a client with the codepage displayed in Step 1 and connect to the original database using -cpinternal/-cpstream.
3. Dump the database through the Data Admin menu.
4. In the new version of Progress, make an empty double byte database by prodb or procopy from the empty database under DLC>prolang>country.
For example, for Traditional Chinese on Unix the command would be:
$DLC/prolang/tch
5. In the new version, start 4gl client using the -cpinternal/-cpstream with the proper codepage for the new database version.
6. Load the dumped files to the new version through Data Admin.
