Copying Evo to an independant workstation to Test.
10/20/21 at 12:32:00
 
Running 2017.1 + PSQL 12 Server, I think we need to update to latest (currently 2021.1), but was hoping to dump Evo onto a notebook, update it and run it for people to evaluate before running it on our live setup.
 
Any problem with installing trial PSQL 12 Server on a notebook copying Evo folder over and running from said laptop? Can't find the exact procedure, but honestly even if I could install install an empty version of Evo 2021.1 to a notebook that would be fine, we don't need to be able to use our data.
 
Let me know,
-A.

So there is PDF you can use to "move" Evo to a new server  at https://www.istechsupport.com/resources.php.  Just do the PSQL setup (with a demo lic) and move over the Evo folder to get it running.
 
You can have people sit at the system and 'demo' it. That is what I did a while back when we made the jump from Classic to Evo.  
 
The trick is actually getting people to take the time to try it.

For a 30 day test you can use the PSQL demo.  For a permanent demo station you can buy a $100 PSQL Workgroup license.

Oh hey, another question.
 
Where are the pages that list the Fixes/Enhancements for the different revisions of Evo? I collected v2011.1 through 2018.3, but I forget for the life of me where they were hosted and there doesn't appear to be links to the update notes anywhere on the forward facing webpages.
 
I compiled them into an Excel PivotTable/PDF if anyone wants a copy, makes it easy to read through what's been changed/fixed version to version.

Lastly!
 
I'm getting the "Error detected in DEMO." message on my 2021.1 updated demo copy of Evo. Is there a fix for that, like does the serial key have to be re-entered or something? Not planning on using this other than to just let people see if the update breaks any of their workflow.
 
Thanks much,
-A. (andy@nortra-cables.com - if you need to direct contact me)

Did you copy over the entire DBAFG folder and update it?  That should have copied all the Evo/DBA licenses.

I did, if I run dba it works, but Evo does not.

Recopy the SUWIN7.DCY and SUWIN6.DCY from DBAMFG to the test application folder and the C:\ISTS folder on the test station and the BKARSIVL.B from the production DEFAULT subfolder to the test DEFAULT subfolder.
