I was working on the sqlanywhere 11.0.0 application and sybase central for quite a while. Suddendly after weird and long system reboot Monday, I started having trouble connecting the sybase central to the sqlanywhere database. recovery to recent windwos 10 checkpoint did not help, manually attempt to load the sqlanywhere.jpr gave me the could not read manifest error.

I also discover the system has no clue that SA was installed. the w10 pro was upgraded a few times, from vista pro to w7 pro, w8 pro, and hardware upgrade a couple of times.)

what can I do?

The crash dump appears to indicate that the install for SQLA 11 is in C:\PgmF\Sybase\SQLAnywhere11. Is that correct? I would recommend trying to do a repair of the install but as you indicate the OS does not think there is a SQLA 11 installed. This is very concerning suggesting something has gone wrong at the OS level. Assuming that only SQLA 11 is affected, can you reinstall SQLA 11?

I found out the problem was the jpr file content . somehow the old version with invalid path reappear. fix that, the problem went away.
