When installing on Microsoft Windows, the Replication Agent 15.6 installation program requires components of the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 libraries. If these libraries are not installed, the Sybase installer stops responding without issuing a warning or error message.
To check if the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable package is already installed, go to , and look for Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable.
You can download Visual C++ 2005 from the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) page. Run vcredist_x86.exe to install the Visual C++ runtime components on Microsoft Windows 32-bit or 64-bit machines.
SySAM supports Internet Protocol versions 6 and 4 (IPv6 and IPv4, respectively), however, Replication Agent supports only IPv4. The SySAM server that is installed by the Replication Agent installation program is configured to use IPv4. Sybase recommends that you maintain this configuration. However, if you must use IPv6, license Replication Agent using an unserved license.
Before starting your installer, set the SYBASE_SAM_CAPACITY environment variable using the sysamcap utility.
Follow the instructions provided in the SySAM Users Guide > Configuring SySAM Sub-capacity. However, start your installer instead of starting the sub-capacity-enabled Sybase product. The installer includes the sysamcap utility located in sysam_utilities/bin .
