  • Accessing Zen/PSQL Data from ODBC Or Other Applications
    Accessing Zen/PSQL Data From ODBC Or Other Applications A White Paper From For more information, see our web site at http://www.goldstarsoftware.com Accessing Zen/PSQL Data From ODBC (or Other Applications) Last Updated: 02/23/2021 When it comes to "frequently asked questions", this one takes the cake, to be sure. It seems that people are used to databases which provide ODBC access natively (such as FOXPro, Access, etc.) and get confused when they cannot access their own application data immediately. Then, they start “Btrieve-bashing” because they can't get their data out. This document was created to provide some explanation as to what the issues are when it comes to ODBC access and your data, whether it be stored in a current Actian Zen database engine, or one of the older ones, including Actian PSQL, Pervasive PSQL, Pervasive.SQL, and even Btrieve. The material is taken mostly from the PSQL Service & Support classes provided by Goldstar Software. Database Engine Type & ODBC Drivers The first question we have to deal with is the availability of ODBC drivers. If you have a newer engine, then you can skip this section entirely. If you have an older engine, though, then you should read on. Old DOS applications may be using Btrieve 5.x or older for DOS, 5.x for Windows, or even Btrieve 5.x or 6.10 for NetWare. These engines do NOT contain an ODBC driver and will not support 32-bit ODBC access. (MS Access 2.0 had limited support for Btrieve 6.10, but only from 16-bit Windows applications.) If this is the case, then you will need to purchase a new database engine to support this access.

  • Determining Your Pervasive, Actian, PSQL Or Btrieve Engine Version
    Determining Your PSQL Engine Version A White Paper From For more information, see our web site at http://www.goldstarsoftware.com Determining Your PSQL Engine Version Last Updated: 12/18/2018 It is very common for people to know that they are using the Btrieve or Pervasive PSQL, or Actian Zen database engine, but to not know exactly which version they are using. Moreover, the list of related files is often a mystery, especially for older versions, and some users are simply without a clue as to what modules are part of the database and what are not. This paper was created so that someone could locate the PSQL-related files on their workstation or server and determine the exact version, including user count, where appropriate. NetWare Server Engines With NetWare servers, it is possible to have any version of Btrieve from 5.x all the way through Pervasive PSQL v9. Many users see the version reported from BREQUEST and assume that this is their Btrieve version -- it just isn't so! You must query the server to determine exactly which version of BTRIEVE.NLM you have. On older versions of NetWare, you can do this with the "MODULES" command, which lists all the loaded modules on the server. Then, watch for the BTRIEVE.NLM to scroll by. For NetWare 4.11 and above, you can use the command "MODULES BTR*" to list only those modules that start with "BTR", which will save some searching. With the release of Pervasive.SQL 7, Pervasive Software started including the SQL engine "in the box" with the Btrieve engine.

  • Btrieve Data File Maintenance
    Btrieve Data File Maintenance A White Paper From For more information, see our web site at http://www.goldstarsoftware.com Btrieve Data File Maintenance Last Updated 04/07/2010 Btrieve data files do not require periodic maintenance, unlike some of the more administration-intensive database products out there. In fact, the majority of Btrieve files sit happily for their entire lives without ever having to be touched outside of the program that creates and accesses them. As a result, using BUTIL or some of the other utilities is relegated to the programmers in the world, since these are the people who can benefit most by their use. In fact, there are only two cases where file maintenance for a normally-running Btrieve database may be required. First, if the developer makes a change to the application that requires changing the size of the record in a file, a manual BUTIL rebuild process may be utilized. Oftentimes, the developer will create a version upgrade utility, or some other process to perform this function automatically. If this is done from the workstation, however, a long time may be needed to convert large files. It may be desirable to manually perform the process from the server instead. Second, if a database is very large and the application purges (deletes) a large number of records, you may wish to give some of the newly freed up storage space back to the operating system. This is important because Btrieve does not release empty data pages back to the operating system -- it just marks them as free pages for future use by the engine.

  • Btrieve Error Codes 3000 - 3099 ← Pervasive PSQL Microkernel Router Status Codes
    Btrieve Error Codes 3000 - 3099 ← Pervasive PSQL MicroKernel Router Status Codes This section lists the status codes you can receive from the MicroKernel router, which receives requests from the Btrieve requesters and routes them to the correct version of the MicroKernel. 3000: The MicroKernel router encountered a memory allocation error The MicroKernel router could not internally allocate memory. Check the Pervasive Event Log (PVSW.LOG) for more information. 3001: Local access is unavailable to the MicroKernel router A call to the MicroKernel failed. This is most likely the result of an incorrect configuration. For example, if the MicroKernel is unavailable because of configuration settings and the file to be opened is local, then the MicroKernel router returns this status code. 3002: The MicroKernel router resource DLL is unavailable The MicroKernel resource DLL is either missing or incompatible with the current version of the router. If this happens, the MicroKernel reverts to its default settings and continues to run. Check the Pervasive Event Log (PVSW.LOG) for more information. 3003: The MicroKernel router detected an incompatible network component The networking services component is not compatible with this version of the MicroKernel router. The most likely cause is that the Networking services DLL has been replaced by an older version. Check the Pervasive Event Log (PVSW.LOG) for more information. 3004: The MicroKernel is not responding to the MicroKernel router The MicroKernel is not responding to requests from the MicroKernel router. Verify that the MicroKernel is running. 3005: The MicroKernel router encountered an operating system error The MicroKernel router encountered an unexpected error from the operating system, such as a shared memory failure.

  • Pervasive Software FAQ's
    PERVASIVE SOFTWARE FAQ’S Prepared by Addsum Business Software, Inc. For TAS/Advanced Accounting users Initial release: January 2003 Last updated: December 17, 2003 Author: Anthony J. Frates What is Pervasive? Pervasive is the record manager engine component used by some database systems and used to be called “Btrieve.” All TAS/Advanced Accounting systems from version 3 through version 6 have used Btrieve as the record manager. For some general background information, see http://www.btrieve.com. (See www.pervasive.com for Pervasive’s main web site.) The record manager engine is in essence a separate piece of software that sits between your application and the operating system and takes care of data operation chores such as indexing. What record manager comes with TAS/Advanced Accounting 6? Btrieve 6.15 (with the initial 12/31/02 release). Advanced Accounting 6.1+ now comes with Pervasive (additional purchase required). So why haven’t I heard about Pervasive before? Pervasive is licensed differently than was Btrieve 6.15, and it essentially requires a separate license and additional costs. So it is not a component that Business Tools provides with the basic system. Also, Pervasive.SQL did not become an option for TAS/Advanced Accounting 5.1 users until Pervasive released Pervasive.SQL 2000i. Most recently they have released V8 which is an enhanced version of Pervasive.SQL 2000i. (Pervasive.SQL 2000i has been discontinued as of December 31, 2003 and has been replaced by V8). When is Pervasive.SQL recommended? Generally for any TAS or Advanced Accounting 5.1 or 6 system where the number of active/concurrent users are going to exceed more than 5-6 very active/concurrent users.
