Hello Again! The last piece of my upgrade is about to drop into place. I finally have a copy of Crystal Server 2011 to install. It would have been great to get it BEFORE I did the ARS midtier install but that wasn't possible. I have cloned the production ARS server VM as it currently exists

Thank you for your response. I did have it set to update old records with new data. It turns out that the issue was the length of the entry id/issue id field. In prior versions of ARS, the field was 15 characters long. We've been on it since version 4.5 and hence had forms that had the

Hello again! Thank you very much for all the help you all have given me thus far! I have another question I hope someone can answer concerning Mid Tier 8.1.2. For Crystal Server 2011, can we use NUL (named user license) licenses or does Mid Tier require the CAL licenses? I asked BMC

I did have to apply the fix on the Schema_Archive table not because we had data but because it was the wrong field type (Varchar2 instead of Number) and was throwing errors. Interestingly, yours is the second post I've found about deleting the Flashboard forms (if you don't use them) in order

I just looked and that column in our linux Ora10g Schema_archive table is a varchar2(254) with no “not null” constraint. I don’t think I’m going to change it to a number(15) not null column before I try the upgrade since this may be a Solaris only issue. If the upgrade bombs then I’ll look

I should add that the first suggestion I received on my new support ticket was to upgrade the Oracle 10g database to 12c. Unfortunately, as there are other applications pointing to it that aren't certified with 12c, I can't do this.
