Check for operating system patches

Apply any operating system patches before you install Sybase IQ. Check with your operating system vendor for information on the latest operating system patches.

Patches required to run the Windows installer

You must install these patches before you run a GUI server install:

System

Patch

x86

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributed Package.

x64

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributed Package for x86 systems and Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributed Package x64 systems.

If you do not install these packages, the installer may not function correctly. If you experience problems with an install, apply these patches, and re-run the install. You can find these packages in the ms-redist-* folders on the Sybase IQ installation media.

NoteDo not use a patch that is earlier than the version suggested for your operating system. Use the patch recommended by the operating system vendor, even if it supersedes the patch listed under “Platforms and operating systems”.
