Installing PowerBuilder Installing PowerBuilder What to install The PowerBuilder setup program lets you choose which components to install. You must install the base components. Table 1-5 lists all the components.
CHAPTER 1 Component Description PowerBuilder Tutorial Source files for the tutorial in the Getting Started book. If you want to do the PowerBuilder tutorial or use the code examples, you must install SQL Anywhere 11.0 or later if it is not already installed on your computer. When you install PowerBuilder, the setup program creates an ODBC data source for the demo database.

You can expand the tree view to select or clear subcomponents of top-level components, and click Select All or Unselect All to select or clear all the check boxes.

Network install The installation procedure presented above assumes you are installing from the PowerBuilder 11.5 DVD. If you are a system administrator, you might want to allow users to install PowerBuilder Enterprise from a network drive rather than from a DVD.
Completing the setup program Files reserved for Individual users Other writable files are installed in the default Program Files\Sybase subdirectories, but are copied to different locations the first time a user starts PowerBuilder. In this way, each PowerBuilder user gets a private copy of these files. The following table lists the files that are copied and updated in the directories of all users who run an instance of PowerBuilder.
CHAPTER 1 Installing PowerBuilder Enterprise Silent install and uninstall You can install and uninstall PowerBuilder 11.5 and the PowerBuilder virtual machine (PBVM) without displaying messages or windows during the setup or removal process. However, you must accept the Sybase license agreement before you can run the silent install file.
Silent install and uninstall All of the parameters for the silent install are optional. If you do not provide a value for the “lic” parameter, the installer searches the files in the installer directory in ascending alphabetic order for a valid license file. It uses the first valid license file it finds to install PowerBuilder and InfoMaker. If you do not provide the “lic” parameter and there is no license file in the installer search path, an evaluation version of PowerBuilder is installed.
CHAPTER 1 Installing PowerBuilder Enterprise When installing PowerBuilder, the silent install writes warnings to its log file if the setup computer does not have any of the following items: SQL Anywhere 11, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 or later, Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 SDK or later, Microsoft IIS 5.0 or later, or AJAX Extensions version 1.0. When installing InfoMaker, the silent install includes a warning in the log file if the setup computer does not have a working copy of SQL Anywere 11.0.
Before using PowerBuilder Enterprise You run the PBVM silent uninstall by double-clicking the silentuninstall.bat file in the PBVM directory or running it from a command line. Before using PowerBuilder Enterprise Before you use PowerBuilder Enterprise, you might need to perform some additional migration or configuration tasks: • Migrating applications to PowerBuilder or InfoMaker 11.
CHAPTER 1 Installing PowerBuilder Enterprise Upgrading databases for jConnect for JDBC If you plan to use any of the products in PowerBuilder Enterprise with SQL Anywhere or Adaptive Server® Enterprise databases, including databases that were previously prepared for jConnect™ for JDBC™ 4.x, you need to prepare the databases for jConnect 5.5 by installing additional tables and stored procedures.
Before using PowerBuilder Enterprise ❖ To install the PBVM on EAServer or the Application Server Plug-in: 1 Run the setup.exe program in the PBVM directory on the PowerBuilder 11.5 DVD. 2 On the Choose Destination Location page, click Next if the default destination location is correct, or click Browse to navigate to the directory where EAServer or the Application Server Plug-in is installed and click Next.
