Adaptive Server Enterprise 15.0 includes new major versions of Adaptive Server and many of the supporting components. All other current Sybase products (for example, Replication Server 12.6 or Enterprise Connect Data Access 12.6) contain earlier version of those same components. Installing Adaptive Server version 15.0 into the same directory with existing products should not impact the existing products. However, installing other products on top of Adaptive Server version 15.0 will likely result in one or more products not working correctly.
Sybase strongly recommends that Adaptive Server version 15.0 be installed into its own directory if possible. Where this is not practical and other products must be installed into the same directory, Adaptive Server version 15.0 should be installed last.
If Sybase products are installed, and you install another Sybase product into a different directory on the same machine, the system variables (for example, %SYBASE%) and registry entries are reset to the directory where the last Sybase product was installed. Thus, any Sybase products that were on the system before and were configured to run as Windows services may no longer run automatically and may not be manageable through the Control Panel Service controls.
To correct this problem, run the previously installed products from within a DOS command shell or create scripts that set the environment and run the product. When using a DOS command shell, run the environment scripts, such as SYBASE.bat from within the installation directory for that product before running the product to set the variables correctly.
