Re: 9.6 install

Greg,

I usually create a new workspace for new release of RDI...

But, you could copy over your work-space, just-in-case. And then use the same work space...

You can export most of your setting, and then re-import them using the >File>export/import options.

Or re-use the workspace, with no problem. I just like to have a back-up.

The choice is yours.

So is there any way to import or migrate my 9.5 workspace to 9.6? Or, do I need to recreate everything?

Ken,

Thanks... I'll try the web install. I don't have the time nor the patience to upgrade using the other route.

IBM can blame "old programmers" for not wanting to move to RDi... but I guarantee you the millennials will not be patient enough to tolerate the standard install. It's beyond ridiculous that something takes this long to install in 2018.

Sorry if I'm being "harsh" - but who has the time to spend an entire day just to update a piece of software?

Greg

Greg,

Yes, the extract process takes a while, but it seems to be about 20-minutes for me...

You could also try the web-install instead.

I just recently discovered that I can hit the "TAB" key to indent my **free Code!!! Awesome!

I apologize ahead of time... I know this has probably been covered. But is there a SIMPLE document outlining the install/upgrade process from v9.5 to v9.6?

I'm not sure what I downloaded, but ONE of the zip files is going to take an HOUR to extract. Something doesn't seem right. I just need the RPG/Cobol version.

Thx,
Greg
