Upgrading SUP 1.5.5 to SUP 2.0 - sup

I am currently using SUP 1.5.5 Personal Developer Edition which I got by upgrading SUP 1.5.2. Now I want to upgrade my SUP 1.5.5 to SUP 2.0. From Sybase Online help tutorials, I came to know that from 1.5.5 we can directly upgrade to 2.0 by running the installer. But I failed to find out from where we need to download this installer? And I need to know the steps in this upgradation process?
Can anybody please help me to upgrade to SUP 2.0?
Thanks and regards,
Rinzy Deena Mathews.

You will need to grab the complete distribution from the products page which you can get to from here:
https://sybase.subscribenet.com/
You'll have to authenticate so hopefully you know your account information or know someone who does.
This will take you to the available products page for your account. Once here, if you have licenses for it, the SUP should be available. If not you'll have to contact support. When you click through you should see the latest version. Again if you don't you'll have to contact support.
There should be 4 zip files to download that make up the platform. There are also 2 zip files of documentation. I would download all of them. Once you've grabbed them extract them all into the same directory. Find setup.exe and you should be all set.
If you do happen to extract the downloads into separate directories just copy the modules directory from each distribution to the one where setup.exe lives. It won't work unless all the files are in the same place. I learned this the hard way.
Good luck!

The installer can be downloaded from the Sybase Product Download Center.
Also, I could not upgrade to 2.0 simply by running the installer. Services wouldn't start.
Had to uninstall 1.5.5 first and then perform a clean install for 2.0.

Cognos Data Manager to Cognos Datastage Migration

I'm looking at a migration project to migrate a client from Datamanager to Datastage. I can see that IBM have helpfully added in the Migration Assistant tool, but less helpfully, I cannot find any details on how to actually use it.
I did use it some years ago, and I'm aware that you need to do it in a command line interface and it works by taking an extract file and creating a Datastage job out of it, which is then reinstalled. However I haven't got my notes any more from that process.
If there is a user guide out there for this tool, I'd love to see it.
Cheers

Your starting point would be the IBM support page and then see "How to download the tool" and ensure you have the required version (10.2.1 + Fix Pack 13 + Interim Fix) installed. The user guide PDF is part of the install in the sub-folder "datamanager/migration".

Does Qt 5.13.0 really take up 20.49 GB?

I downloaded the offline installer for Qt5 from here. The developer and designer tools are automatically selected for installation, but Qt 5.13.0 is not. I would imagine I need to install that, but the size is 20.49 GB. Am I supposed to install this?
Is there a specific reason you want to use the offline installer? It is recommended to use the online installers, which give you much more control over which modules and kits you want to install :
We recommend you use the Qt Online Installer for first time
installations and the Qt Maintenance Tool for changes to a current
install.
Your link is not shown in your question. On the official Qt website
They say that the size should be less than 3.3 GB. So if you realy want to use the offline installer, you should take that road.

How to install previous releases of wix toolset

I am sorry for this stupid question, but I really need to install version 3.9 of the Wix Toolset. I can only find version 3.10 and 3.11. There is a link on the website to download older archives (also for 3.9rc2), but in this 1.2Gb file I cannot find an installer.
Please do not tell me to install the latest version, I have my own reasons for 3.9 that goes beyond the scope of this question. Any help is truely appreciated.
I should leave this for the WiX guys to answer, but maybe you are very busy and just need to test something?
Building it yourself from the sources isn't an option is it? https://github.com/wixtoolset/wix3/releases (towards the bottom, click the blue image - it says "Show 5 other tags" here). Sounds painful to work that out...
The 3.9 binaries seem to be here (looks like R1): https://github.com/continuoustests/ContinuousTests/tree/master/Installer/ContinuousTests.WixInstaller/wix39-binaries, but not as an installer file. Maybe you just need to test something quickly? If so, obviously please accept your own risk here, I am not sure what these files really are.
I hope I haven't linked to something that is problematic, just delete the whole answer if this should be the case (i.e the binaries pointed to should not ever be used - for some reason, etc...).
I recently had a need to get the old wix38.exe installer for legacy project maintenance, and it was a pain. Tom Blodget's comment above was the key on how to find the required file from the CodePlex archive.
Because there are likely to be other people in the future who require access to these things, I've created a github repository https://github.com/CasaDeRobison/wixtoolset-codeplex that includes the state of the git repository from the CodePlex archive and also makes available the various files from those releases at https://github.com/CasaDeRobison/wixtoolset-codeplex/tree/master/archived-stable-versions
Hopefully others will find this useful as well so that we don't all have to collectively puzzle this out if we have a need for this older software.

Need help to select correct install file and options for BA\PDI

We want to upgrade our Pentaho suite from 4.1 to 5.0 version. Currently we use Analyzer for ad hoc reporting (which is installed on linux box) and Kettle (which is on windows).Plus this time we want to install repository also so that our kettle jobs are shared centrally.
With this requirement I believe I need to install both BA and DI components, since Analyzer comes under BA. But I can see that BA and DI have separate repository.
Can someone help me explaining which install files I should run and what options should I pick ?. I have 3 files pdi-ee-5.0.2-dist.zip, pdi-ee-client-5.0.1-dist.zip and pdi-ee-server-5.0.2-dist.zip
I would also appreciate if someone can provide me with correct link or video to help me with the install\configuration.Right now I am referring to http://infocenter.pentaho.com/help/index.jsp
You don't have to install anything, you just have to unzip the files and have to run appropriate batch file on windows and .sh file in linux.
For pentaho Data integration you have to run "spoon.bat" on windows and "spoon.sh" on linux
For pentaho BA Server you have to run you have to reach down to biserver-ce foler (i am using community addition) for you it may be like biserver-ee and under that you have to run "start-pentaho.bat" in windows and "start-pentaho.sh" in linux.

TagLib# Windows distribution? Or another good ID3 reader?

I wanted to write a quick program to get the file organization of my MP3 files back into sync with the info in my ID3 tags...
I had tried to get the Windows Media Format SDK, but when I go to install it says it can only run on WinXP. I found someone on here suggest TagLib#, which looked REALLY good, from the code examples. Problem is it seems the official site is gone, and the other links I've found to a hosting on Novell's servers is also down.
Anyone know where I can still get a distro of TagLib# for C#/VB.NET for Windows? Or another good ID3 tag reader?
I would recommend installing taglib-sharp with NuGet. NuGet is the best and easiest way to use opensource libraries in Visual Studio.
To install TagLib#, run the following command in the Package Manager Console in Visual Studio.
PM> Install-Package taglib
The NuGet distribution of taglib-sharp can be found at http://nuget.org/packages/taglib.
The official source code repository is at https://github.com/mono/taglib-sharp.
You can download the source and DLL here: http://download.banshee.fm/taglib-sharp/2.0.4.0/taglib-sharp-2.0.4.0-windows.zip
You can check http://download.banshee.fm/taglib-sharp/ to see the latest version.
You can do an svn checkout of the code from http://anonsvn.mono-project.com/source/trunk/taglib-sharp.
