Re: questions about SQR

[Denise White <dewhite@VICR.COM>]

If you are simply running an SQR from SQRW, instead of the process scheduler, I
really don't see what difference it makes what version of PeopleTools you are
on.  The problem is between SQR writing to c:\temp, if that is what you are
doing, and Win2K.  (For the non-PeopleSoft users on this group, don't you have
the same problem?)  Of course, you are talking about PeopleSoft's solution,
which involves altering the directory structure of %PS_HOME, so maybe that does
have something to do with the Tools version.  Personally, I think that deleting
one registry key is a simpler solution than altering the directory structures,
even if it's just copying from a specific node down to another location.
Another alternative, that we used until we found the registry solution, is to
use a directory other than c:\temp (such as c:\ps\temp), but this is probably
the most work - you have to change any settings in Cfg Mgr, and the SQRW
shortcut, as well as recoding any SQRs that write files to c:\temp.

To address another of Rajib's questions, this problem occurs with SP2, and not
with SP1.  A further solution is to go back to SP1.

Not in our system it won't. The network admin and I have attempted to get it
up and running; we have tried all the different solutions, and none of them
work.  Oh, I guess the missing piece of the puzzle is the version of
peoplesoft you are running, and the version of tools.  Let me modify that to
say it will not run on W2k machines if your PTools version is 7.57.....

SQR 4.3.4 WILL run on Win 2K with a simple 'PeopleSoft-Approved' patch.

The latest version of sqr is 6.x
SQR v4.3.4 will not run in W2K, because of a bug that will not allow it to
write to c:\temp.

I have couple of questions regarding SQR's version

a) what is the latest version of SQR
b) how old is SQR version 4.3- whether this version will run in windows 2000
or not? Do anyone of you have experience of running SQR version 4.3 in
windows 2000.
