Older versions of DBA Classic may have Btrieve 6.15, Pervasive.SQL 2000i, or Pervasive.SQL V8 components installed, but the vendor has indicated that this entire product line will work on any current version of Pervasive, including Pervasive PSQL v9.5. (For any new installations or upgrades, you will probably move to PSQLv9.5, if you have not already.)

Like Goldstar Software, IS Tech is also a Pervasive reseller, so if you plan on requesting support from them on the application, you may be best off purchasing the Pervasive upgrade from them. IS Tech Support recommends that users use the current PSQL v9.5

WARNING: DBA Software provided the PSQLV8 client with their last (2004) update without regard for the server PSQL version . This situation potentially created a problem with the PSQLV8 client logging into a PSQL2000 server.  This engine/client mismatch can cause major problems, from server-side crashing (if the SP4 HotFixes are not yet applied) to other strange results. DBA may load, but sporadic unpredictable errors will result.  The possible solutions to this are:

• Remove the PSQLV8 client from each workstation and install the PSQL2000i client instead. This ensures that you have the same versions, although the PSQL2000i software has not been sold nor supported since 2004.
• Upgrade your older PSQL engine on the server to PSQLV8 (at minimum). This is a paid upgrade (not free). If you upgrade to V8.7 (Service Pack 3), you may also need to patch the clients anyway.
• Upgrade your entire environment to the currently supported Pervasive PSQL v9.5 software. Since you may have to touch all machines anyway, why not upgrade to the latest & greatest engine from Pervasive?

Update 12/11/2007: After receiving a few calls about people wanting to upgrade, we did some more research on this, and found several users already running DBA Classic on Pervasive PSQL Summit v10 with no issues. This is great news, and should allow anyone running an older engine to get on the newest one, including Vista support. (Users are also successfully running DBA Classic on Vista, as well.)

Update 01/28/2011: Lynn Pantic at IS Tech Support has indicated that users are working fine on Pervasive PSQL v11, as well. If looking at a new database engine purchase, you will likely want to get the newest release.
