You'd think they'd realize that a lot of us WILL NOT use the installer as we have necessary customization to base forms. If they would only spend a bit of time in making a binary only installer, would make life so much easier.

" The arupsyb file is part of the installer and is used during install of AR Server. It is not part of the AR Server install files, libraries or binaries. You therefore do not need to do anything with this file if you are patching with files instead of the installer. A defect was previously opened to remove this file from our documentation. Our recommendation though, is still to run the installer to apply the patch as this will take care of installing all the necessary files. " So apparently that defect was not resolved between then and now. And I got the privilege of wasting more of my time with long known (9 months old) BMC problems. -- Carey Matthew Black Remedy Skilled Professional (RSP) ARS = Action Request System(Remedy) Love, then teach Solution = People + Process + Tools Fast, Accurate, Cheap....
