Can the readme page include links to the last 3 or 4 releases of currently supported versions - (ie older versions v16 as well as v17) This page saves a huge amount of bother! http://sqlasupport.sap.com/readme/index.html Thanks asked 02 Jul '18, 12:02 Justin Willey Volker Barth |
Here's an attempt to provide an inofficial "Latest EBFs List", only for Windows on X86..., with release date based on the SAP Support Portal. Version 16.0.0:
Version 17.0.9/17.0.10/17.0.11:
Feel free to add other platforms or correct/update information:) answered 31 Oct '18, 06:51 Volker Barth OK, now I see/understand the "17.0.9" in the subtitle :)

Version 16.0.0.2726 is available for download with a release date of 2018-10-23. Sybase Central told me for the first time that version 16.0.0.2704 was available on 2018-10-22.

Yes, I can confirm that behaviour. According to some related FAQs, in the past the Update Checker often informed rather delayed about new versions. I don't know whether it needs "manually updated information", or if there is a "grace period" of n days between release date and "update information date"...

FWIW, the Update Checker on 16.0.0.2704 still tells "You are Up-To-Date". Well, I'm not, methinks.

Maybe the Update Checker should check for updates of the Update Checker first?

Also, Sybase Central and Interactive SQL tells me that there are updates to 16.0, even if I'm currently at EBF 2798 (which is the latest). Quite annoying, methinks. ;)

Hm, 16.0.0.2798 does tell me that I'm up-to-date... Could it be that either the client software or the database server (if on different machines) are not on 2798?

Hi. This is a personal database server on my laptop. Sybase Central is 16.0.0.2798. Has been like this as long as I can remember.

Well, thanks for that, and apparently another thanks to Justin for the original question:)

...and thank you once again. It has become important to me to "have all the V17 builds" to deal with specific client environments.

For SQLA 17.0 Build 5923 (2019-09-26) there seems to be no readme file. Requesting the info on the download page only gives this message:

I had the same problem

Yes, I had that, too, when I checked the EBF on 2019-10-09. However, the readme file does exist in the setup, I checked that then after the download...

Today (2022-03-03), running 17.0.11, build 6800 I see "Updates Are Available" and "This site can't be reached / sqlasupport.sap.com refused to connect." Is it just a bad day/does the site still work or perhaps there's a new update and a ton of folks all trying to connect at once. answered 03 Mar '22, 15:17 dwmulholland As of today, I can access that site.

AFAIK, they do - with a certain time lag:)
I agree it's a very handy (and S-USER-free...) summary..., and I have used those links in the past quite a few times here:)
So which one is obsolete?
Aggghhhh... Volker - it's been updated. I'm making a twit of myself here. When I went to it the other day it had a rather old v16 link, but now its up-to-date!! In order to save some face I'm going to have to rephrase my request: "Can the readme page include links to the last 3 or 4 releases of currently supported versions"
Do you ask for different versions the readme files, or are you more interested in the classic "Latest EBF overview" as was available in Breck's blog for years?
(For readmes, IMHO it is sufficient to have the latest available because it is easy to filter for changes between different builts...)
Oh, oh, can't comment, too easy :)
But Boris you're not...
It a good point - just a list of the other builds that were actually released would be sufficient.
AFAIK, there's has been an update w.r.t. the state of the Secretary of State for F&CA...
