Resolution

The Shared Memory Version number can be obtained from a database through:

1.    PROMON
 

promon > R&D > 1. Status Displays > 1. Database

Example: OpenEdge 12.2 64-bit
Shared memory version number:      6413615


2.  VST _DbStatus

FIND _DbStatus NO-LOCK.
 DISP _DbStatus._DbStatus-shmVers.


3.   Diagnosing Error 1178

Error 1178 results when the client connects to shared memory and database have different Major Minor versions:

The shared memory is version <num>; expected <num> (1178)  


To correct the error the client version will need to be changed to match:

  • The Database Major Minor version in order to connect self-service (single-user or shared-memory)
  • The Database Major version or one Major version higher in order to connect client-server.

From the table below the Client and Database version can be determined from the Shared Memory value listed.  

Shared Memory Versions:

  • Not every Service Pack has a different shared memory version. For example, 10.2B01 through 10.2B03 have the same shared memory version - 12372. 
  • Hotfixes may have different shared memory versions than their parent Service Pack and are not included in the list.
  • For 64-bit Progress OpenEdge licenses, the display format for shared memory version is: 64000000 + version specific number.
Example:
32bit 10.2B00       12371
64bit 10.2B00   6412371
