Pervasive SQL V8 Vs SQL Server 2000
Dec 11, 2006My company is trying to determine if they need to upgrade from our current Platinum accounting application that uses pervasive SQL V8 to another version of Platinum that uses SQL server 2000.
My manager wants a in-depth analysis comparing pervasive SQL V8 to SQL server 2000.
I have searched the web extensively but information is scarce.
Are there any articles or case studies that do an indepth analysis comparing both databases? Can someone please help me. It would be greatly appreciated.
SQL Server Versus Pervasive SQL/2000
May 25, 2007Hi there,
Don't know if anyone can help,
There used to be a Whitepaper on the Microsoft website comparing SQL server (2000?) against Pervasive SQL or 2000, the link was http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/default.asp?url=/technet/prodtechnol/sql/.
But it's not working anymore.
Does anyone have a copy of this paper, or know where it's now located? I've been looking for hours and can't find it.
Thanks in advance.

Linked Server To Pervasive 8 - Connection Error
Aug 7, 2006Hello,
I am currently migrating from SQL 7.0 to SQL2005. So far everything is going well except for one thing, my linked server to a Pervasive 8.6 server database. I've done the same configurations as with the SQL 7.0 server to create the linked server. I've created an Pervasive ODBC Client DSN system connection on the server called PervasiveDB pointing to the DataDB catalog, using TCP/IP as transport and the server name "PervasiveDB" as the server address. From this point, on the SQL2005 server, the DSN connection is successfull and I can see the different catalog names of the PervasiveDB server. When I create the Linked server on the SQL2005, I create exactly as done on the SQL7.0 which is :
SQL7.0 server : OS is Windows 2000 all service packs applied for both OS and SQL7.0
SQL2005 server : OS is Windows2003 standard edition all service packs applied for both OS and SQL2005.
Linked server name : TestPervasive
Provider : Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
Product name: Pervasive
Data source: PervasiveDB
Location: PervasiveDB
Catalog : DataDB
I get the following error when I try to query the data to test if the linked server I just created is successful:
query : SELECT * FROM testpervasive.DataDB..schedule
error message:
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TestPervasive" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TestPervasive".
Anybody can help me on this one? I would greatly appreciate it !!
How To Import Pervasive Database Into SQL Server 2005
Jun 9, 2006
Hi
I have tried to import Pervasive Database to SQL Server 2005.
I am not getting any option in Data Source for Pervasive So I tried following
I have Provided the following Connection String to SQL server Import and Export Wizard (in .net framework data provider for ODBC)
Connectio String: Dsn=DEMODATA;Driver={Pervasive ODBC Engine Interface}
DSN: DEMODATA
Driver:Pervasive ODBC Engine Interface
but i m getting error that "Can not get supported data types from th database connection."
Can you please look in to it and tell me possible ways by which I can import pervasive Database into SQL server 2005.
and let me know if there is any other tool by which we can see "Pervasive ODBC Engine Interface"
in Data Source
Thanks,

Error Expanding Tables In Linked Server To Pervasive
Feb 1, 2005Pleeeease help? I get an error when expanding the Tables object under linked servers in Enterprise Manager on a MSSQL2000 server.
I have a standard install of the Pervasive.SQL V8 data engine and DemoData db on my local PC. The SQL Server is also on my local PC.
I manage to create the Linked Server using the MSSQL Enterprise Manager. I used the following configuration:
Provider Name: Pervasive.SQL V8 OLE DB Provider
Product Name: Pervasive.SQL V8
Data source: DemoData
Provider string: <blank>
Location: workstation03
Catalog: <blank>
However when I try to expand the tables object under Linked Servers in the Enterprise manager I get the following error.
Error 7311: Could not obtain the schema rowset for the OLE DB provider 'UNKNOWN'. The provider supports the interface, but retuns a failure code when it is used. OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'UNKNOWN' IDBSchemaRowset::GetRowset returned 0x80040155 ].
How would I fix this?
Thank you.
SQL/Pervasive SQL
Jul 19, 2001Hi,
Is it possible to run MS SQL 7 on the same server with Pervasive SQL?
Access2003 Cannot Link (but Excel2003 Can Link) To Tables In Access97 Database
Feb 20, 2008I have created an Access2003 project (existing data) that links to external data. First I connected to a SQL Server 2000 database. Success. Then I tried to set up a Transact SQL data connection to a legacy MDW-secured Access97 database. (A third-party VB6 application goes against it, and we don't have the source code, so we cannot upgrade it.)
The Transact SQL link tests OK but I cannot select any of the tables or queries from the list presented. However, with the same credentials, I can use these same objects in Excel 2003.
When setting up the link in Access2003, I specify JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider, I enter the MDW file on the All tab, a username and a password on the Connection tab where I browse to the MDB file, and specify Shared Deny None on the Advanced tab. When I test the connection, it tests OK ("Test connection succeeded"). Yet on the "Select the Database and Table/Cube which contains the data you want" dialog, "(Default)" appears in the grayed-out dropdown. Then, beneath that dropdown, there is a grid with Name and Description columns. The grid contains query names but the grid is not enabled. The list of queries is this table is grayed out. Neither of the scrollbars works.
BUT... if I use the SAME username and password in Excel2003, and specify the same MDW, there is no problem working with these same database objects in the legacy Access97 database. WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT THE WIZARD IN EXCEL THAT ALLOWS IT TO SUCCEED AND THE WIZARD IN ACCESS THAT CAUSES IT TO FAIL HERE? In Excel, the list of available providers says Microsoft Access Driver, not JET 4.0 OLE DB Provider.
Thanks

Cannot Link To SQL Tables Using ODBC Link Table In Access 2003
Feb 3, 2006When trying to link to an SQL table in Access 2003, the software appears to be malfunctioning.
The sequence of events is File - Get External Data - Link Tables - Files of Type: ODBC Databases().
The Problem: On two of my computers, the select data source window does not pop up, preventing me from linking to any ODBC data source.
Observations: This function has worked normally in the recent past and works on other computers running Access 2003. One difference between the computers working and non-working computers is Norton Antivirus 2006 (recent upgrade).
Has anyone experienced anything like this? What's going on?

Stored Procedure In Pervasive 9.0
Feb 25, 2008I am trying to write a stored procedure for the first time. I am using pervasive 9.0. I am tying together a secure desktop messaging system with a web application. I will be passing the data that matches what the desktop app needs to fill in the tables.
The issue is that the desktop app uses tow tables to do messaging. One table (PDSMSGC) that stores the relevant information about the message: sender, recipient, notes, phone number, etc. The other table (MEMOS) stores the message text and references back to the "PDSMSGC" table (The memos table in the desktop app is used for more than just the messaging system.)
So both tables have unique IDs that are referenced in both tables. For example:
MEMOS.ParentID = PDSMSGC.MessageID
PDSMSGC.MemoID = MEMOS.MemoID
here are the column definitions:
My question is: Does this seem like a properly formed set of commands and can you think of a better way to do this?
Here is what I have written so far:
CREATE PROCEDURE usp_webmessgaing (in :RecipientID CHAR, in :PatientID UINTEGER, in :PatientName CHAR, in :MemoText LONGVARCHAR, in :PatientPhone DECIMAL);
BEGIN
DECLARE :NewMemoID UINTEGER;
DECLARE :NewMessageID UINTEGER;
INSERT INTO PDSMSGC (ToOper, MsgFrom, LinkID, PrimaryID, Phone, MemoID, DateTaken, TimeTaken, TakeOper, BeenRead) VALUES (:RecipientID, :PatientName, '2', :PatientID, :PatientPhone, :PatientID, CurDate(), CurTime(), 'WEB', '5');
INSERT INTO MEMOS (ParentID, FieldName, MemoText) VALUES (:PatientID, 'Xholder', :MemoText);
SELECT :NewMemoID = MemoID FROM MEMOS WHERE MEMOS.ParentID = :PatientID AND MEMOS.FieldName = 'Xholder' AND MEMOS.MemoText = :MemoText;
SELECT :NewMessageID = MessageID FROM PDSMSGC WHERE PDSMSGC.MsgFrom = :PatientName AND PDSMSGC.PrimaryID = :PatientID AND PDSMSGC.MemoID = :PatientID AND PDSMSGC.TimeTaken = CurDate() AND PDSMSGC.TakeOper = 'WEB' AND PDSMSGC.BeenRead = '5';
UPDATE MEMOS SET ParentID = :NewMessageID, FieldName = 'pmc:MemoID', MemoText = :MemoText WHERE MEMOS.MemoID = :NewMemoID;
UPDATE PDSMSGC SET ToOper = :RecipientID, MsgFrom = :PatientName, MemoID = :NewMemoID, BeenRead = '0' WHERE PDSMSGC.MessageID = :NewMessageID;
END;

Connecting To Pervasive Via ODBC
Aug 7, 2006Has anyone successfully imported data from pervasive over the .net managed odbc bridge?

Importing Pervasive SQL Into SQL2005 Via SSIS
Aug 28, 2006In SQL 2000, I had a working DTS package that would import a Pervasive SQL database into SQL 2000 (There is a good reason, provided on request). The column type definitions came over just fine in SQL 2000 with a few minor changes.
In SQL 2005 (SSIS), i create a Data Source via the Connection Manager (Provider: .Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider) to the Pervasive database (System DSN, <database_odbc>). I then create a Data Destination via the Connection Manager (Provider: Native OLE DBSQL Native Client) to the SQL database. Both databases reside on the same machine.
I've created a DataSource Reader and used the sql command, "select * from ARCustomer" as an example. The issue is with "data types" for the columns. They don't come close to resembling the results that i had in SQL 2000 DTS.
Is there another method or parameter setting that will preserve the "data types" for the columns being imported from the Pervasive database.
This has been a real stumbling block and any help would be truly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your assistance ... Bernie

SSIS Errors During Connection To Pervasive V9.11
May 23, 2007We just upgraded our accounting packages database from Pervasive 8.1 to V9.11. MY SSIS extract packages were working just fine. Now I am getting several erros stating that some columns cannot be found:
For example, in the [sysdtslog90] table, I have these errors:
Column "CreditLimitAmt" cannot be found at the datasource. or
Column "RsrvRptky" cannot be found at the datasource. (from a different pkg)
The table schemas did not change, the columns still exist. The SQL I use also runs just fine in the client interface.
Has anyone experienced this? The bottom line is that now the extract packages are broken.
TIA.
Problem With DTS Source Using Pervasive SQL 2000 (Btrieve) ODBC Driver
Apr 26, 2006I am trying to use a DTS package to extract data from an old Pervasive SQL 2000 (Btrieve) data source, and copy into an MS SQL Server table.
I have installed the Pervasive ODBC driver and got linked tables in Access working. I can see the data.
When I create the DTS package, it shows a list of the tables in the drop-down, but when I hit the Preview button I get an unspecified error. I can finish setting up the DTS package, the new MS SQL Sever table gets created, and the field transformations all look correct. However, when I execute the package it fails. In the logs, I get an unspecified error, the only error code I get in log is: 80074005.
Please help.
Thanks!

Link Informix To SQL Server
Oct 6, 2006Hi,
I am considdering to link a Informix database (running on SCO Unix) to a SQL Server 2005. Only problem is ... I have no idea how to do this! The reason I'm attempring this is to try and see if it would fix a problem I'm experiencing when using Reporting Services to generate reports from a Informix data source. I've been told that setting up a linked server might fix the problem. If anyone could perhabs guide me through setting up the linked server I would be very grateful! The ODBC credentials for setting up a connection to the Informix DB as follows:
Servername : pal_tli
Hostname : server_name
Service : pal_ser
Protocal : sesoctcp
Database : db_name
Username : user_name
Password : pword

Alternative To Link Server
Oct 10, 2007Hi all,
I am having two databases(MS-Sql) on two different servers.Let say they are Server1 and Server2.I am having some stored procedures(sps) which are executing on Server1.Results given by these sps are 6 different tables(Theses tables are temporary tables e.g #Table1 and they are created in one of the sps on Server1). And I want to use these 6 tables on Server2.
But constraint here is, i can create link server for Server1 from Server2 but not from Server1 to Server2.So i can not access Server2 directly from Server1.
Even if i am using custom tables here instead of temp tables(#) it will take me to solution but that is again a constraint i can not do this.
Is there any alternative solution for Link server in this case?
I dont want to go for OPENROWSET and OPENDATASOURCE b'coz of performance issue.
Thank you in advance!!
