Sybase Central Crashes on Db Connection

[former_SQLA_member1694902]

Whenever I try to connect to one the connection profiles in Sybase Central the application throws an error (details below)

I'm using Sybase Central v. 6.0.0.4797 Sybase SQL Anywhere 11.0.1.2837

It was working perfectly yesterday and now this! I've reinstalled, Java, Sql Anywhere and the EBF. Still no luck. Any clues? Nothing else has changed on my machine that affected the Sybase Installation, that I can think of, since yesterday.

Any tips?

Is C:\\Program Files\\SQL Anywhere 11\\Bin32 on your system path? You can check by running echo %PATH% at the command prompt.

[former_SQLA_member1694902]

Yeah, bin64 is there too

[former_SQLA_member1694878]

Could you try running

cd "%SQLANY11%\\Java" && java -cp jodbc.jar ianywhere.ml.jdbcodbc.jdbc3.IBuildNum

to determine the build number of the JDBC java component? Then verify it is identical to the version number on dbjodbc11.dll, which is located in your Bin64 folder

[former_SQLA_member1694902]

yeah, same version. They're both 11.0.1.2837 That's a good trick, though. SQL Management Studio throws a similar error when connecting to a Db, all of a sudden. I'm beginning to think this might be a bigger problem with my laptop. I'll check some other things.

I ended up having to do an "In-Place" upgrade of the OS to fix this problem. It doesn't look like it was anything to do with Sybase Central. Everything was behaving as if the %PATH% variable wasn't there... sometimes. Anyway, it's fixed.
