Upgrading Adaptive Server Anywhere
If you have multiple versions of Adaptive Server Anywhere on your machine, you must pay attention to your system path when using utilities. Since setup adds the most recently installed version executable directory to the end of your system path, it's possible to install a new version of the software, and still inadvertently be running the previously installed version.
For example, if an Adaptive Server Anywhere Version 9 executable directory is ahead of the Version 9 executable directory in your path and you use the dbinit command, you will use the Version 7 utility, and consequently create a Version 7 database.
To use the version 9.0 utilities
Change to the version 9.0 executable directory before executing your command,
or
Modify your system path so that the version 9.0 executable directory is ahead of any previous version Adaptive Server Anywhere executable directory.
