FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
SYMPTOM(s):
Error attempting to programmatically modifying the _user table
A version 9 client may not modify schema on a version 8 database. (7997)
A version 10 client may not modify schema on a version 9 database. (7997)
A version <version> client may not modify schema on a version <version> database. (7997)
CAUSE:
This is expected behavior.
The _user table is considered to be a system table.
Progress allows changes to schema tables only if the client is of the same version as the database. Modifications of schema tables by different version of a client may lead to schema corruption.
FIX:
Make sure the client and server are of the same major release version.
