[英]Accessing an old Progress v9.1e database

I have an old Progress version 9.1e Database file that I need to access. 我有一个旧的Progress版本9.1e数据库文件需要访问。

Is there some way to get an older version of OpenEdge to open this? 是否可以通过某种方式来获得旧版本的OpenEdge来打开它？ I've had a thorough look at their website and have come up with nothing. 我已经仔细浏览了他们的网站，却一无所获。 I've also researched for two days with no luck. 我也研究了两天，没有运气。

Any help or insights will be appreciated. 任何帮助或见解将不胜感激。

Progress databases don't generally exist in a vacuum. 进度数据库通常不存在于真空中。 The system that the database is on should have the executables needed to open it and work with it installed somewhere. 数据库所在的系统应具有打开它并在某处使用它所需要的可执行文件。

If you have simply copied this db from some other system you are basically out of luck. 如果您只是从其他系统复制了此数据库，那么您基本上就不走运了。 And you probably missed key files that are needed. 而且您可能错过了所需的密钥文件。 Especially if you copied a live db. 特别是如果您复制了实时数据库。

Assuming that this db still exists on the original system knowing what OS it is would help. 假设该数据库仍然存在于原始系统上，则知道它是什么操作系统将有所帮助。 If this is a unix variant "find -name progress.cfg -print" should reveal the installation directory. 如果这是unix变体，则“ find -name progress.cfg -print”应显示安装目录。 Export an environment variable named DLC pointing at that dir -- ie export DLC/usr/dlc. 导出指向该目录的名为DLC的环境变量-即，导出DLC / usr / dlc。 There will also be a "bin" subdirectory. 也将有一个“ bin”子目录。 Put that in you PATH. 把它放在你的PATH中。 Then type "showcfg". 然后输入“ showcfg”。 That should reveal what licenses you have available -- which goes a long ways towards narrowing down the options available to open the db and work with the data. 那应该显示出您拥有哪些可用的许可证-这在缩小可用于打开数据库和处理数据的可用选项方面大有帮助。

You'll either need the binaries (and a license code), or know someone who has a copy who'se willing to D&L it to a version you do have access to. 您要么需要二进制文件（以及许可证代码），要么需要知道拥有副本的某人愿意将该副本D＆L到您可以访问的版本。

A chat with an PSC sales rep may be fruitful in this case. 在这种情况下，与PSC销售代表的聊天可能会很有成果。
