Running the instmsgs.ebf Script

Run message-related scripts after upgrading from an Adaptive Server version 15.0.x to version 15.7 ESD #2.

  1. If you upgraded from Adaptive Server version 15.0.x, run uninstmsgs.ebf:
    isql -Usa -Ppassword -w1000 -iuninstmsgs.ebf -orestoremsgs.ebf
    This safeguards your modified messages in the master database before you install the default version 15.7 ESD #2 messages.
  2. Regardless of the Adaptive Server version you upgraded from, run the instmsgs.ebf:
    isql -Usa -Ppassword -iinstmsgs.ebf
    Note: To undo instmsgs.ebf changes, run this script once you have downgraded to the version from which you upgraded:
    isql -S -Usa -P restore_msgs.ebf
  3. If you use localized files, install any localized language using langinstall, sqlloc, or syconfig.
    If you run instmsgs.ebf after installing the 15.7 ESD #2 localized message, this script may delete some new messages.
