PROBLEM:
Yesterday I installed Pervasive.SQL 8.5 (Workgroup) on my customer's machine. I converted the data from DataFlex to Pervasive but I get error 20572 whenever I try to open a Pervasive datafile from my application.
ANSWER:
The User's Guide that gets installed with the Pervasive.SQL Connectivity Kit describes the error as:
20572: Incompatible Database Engine Version
This error indicates that the Pervasive.SQL Database Engine this Connectivity Kit is used
on is not compatible with this Connectivity Kit. You need to upgrade your Pervasive.SQL Database Engine to a later version in order to be able to work with this Connectivity Kit.
Check your machine for DLL's belonging to previous versions of Pervasive.SQL (Btrieve). All the Pervasive.SQL DLL's should be in the PSVW\Bin directory (default diretcory where Pervasive.SQL is installed to) and not in System32 or so. Sometimes files get installed to the \Windows\System or \Windows\System32. Check for files like W3*.DLL and WBTRV32.DLL
If you want to find out what version of Pervasive.SQL is installed you can open a CMD (DOS)window and enter BUTIL -VER.
