EonServerInit and EonDataServer error in Jaguar.log

In the jaguar.log file, an eonserverinit error may appear during Jaguar startup. When the user attempts to retrieve data from the database, a little further down in the log file, the eondataserver error may appear.

This is an issue with the Sybase licensing program, SYSAM, which causes a conflict between the ASE EJB container and EAServer. When the ASE EJB option is installed on a computer, it disables the ability to run the PowerBuilder Virtual Machine in EAServer. Appeon requires PowerBuilder Virtual Machine to function properly.

Workaround: Remove the ASE EJB option from the SYSAM license file by following these three steps:

  1. Back up the SYSAM license file

  2. Edit the SYSAM license file and delete the line “ASE_EJB...”

  3. Restart EAServer
