| Hi everyone,
I wonder if ASA 8.0.3 was compatible with his version ok linux kernel:
Linux aneto 2.6.8-2-686-smp
And this version of libC : 2.3.2
If not, why recent kernels wouldn't be supported by ASA 8.0.3 ? Isn't there
any ascendant comptability ?

It is impossible to test every ASA version on every kernel & glibc
combination. From the above page you will see that 8.0.3.5003 was tested
with 2.6.0, 2.6.4 and 2.6.9 kernels.
What Linux distro are you using?

| Ok thanks for this page.
I'm not using a such distrib but it's for a new customer who will choose our
product (and so ASA 803) unless the DBengine works on his Debian distrib.
It's a testing version of Debian, with 2.6.8-2-686-smp kernel et Glic 2.3.2.
According to the page you've given to me, ASA 803 is supported for Kernel
2.6.0 to 2.6.9 except 2.6.8. Too bad my customer just use a 2.6.8 kernel.
My question was to know if anyone has tried to use an ASA803 engine on e
2.6.8 kernel (not many people I know) and if any problem has been
encountered.
And why 2.6.8 kernel is not supported ? In which case ?

| During our testing of ASA on SuSE 9.2 (which uses the 2.6.8 kernel), we found
that there is an I/O timing bug in the kernel that would corrupt the database.
This is why we state that we cannot support SQLAnywhere on 2.6.8.
