653796	Unable to launch Sybase Central after installing VC++ 2005 Redistributable package – The issue is related to the VC++ 2005 Redistributable package installed for Sybase IQ 15.3. If you apply the VC++ 2005 Redistributable package and then install the Replication Manager Plug-in (RMP) 15.2, the value of `JRE_DIRECTORY` inside the scjview.ini file becomes C:\sybase\Shared\JRE-6_0_6_64BIT, instead of C:\sybase\Shared\JRE-6_0_6_32BIT. Workaround – Change the Sybase Central shortcut in the start menu to point to scjview.exe in %SYBASE%\shared\Sybase Central 6.0.0\win64, start Sybase Central, then manually register the RMP plug-in.
