Hello,

We have several clients who run Uniface 9 on Uniface Anywhere without any issues.

All of the working environments are using either Windows Server 2012 R2 or 2016.

However, a new client of ours has requested that we run it on Windows Server 2019. When running the Uniface application on the server, it works fine. But when using Uniface Anywhere, the GOLD KEY does not function properly.

We have set the $SWAP_GOLD_PROFILE in the ASN file.

Here are the issues we are encountering:

  • Typing "*" (Shift + 8) results in only "*" being displayed.
  • Typing "*" (from the numeric keypad) results in "GOLD*" (which is the only correct behavior).
  • Typing ">" (Shift + .) results in only ">" being displayed.
  • Typing "=" results in "=" only.

This happens even when using the same ASN file both locally and in the Uniface Anywhere application.

Could this be related to Windows Server 2019?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
we also use Anywhere, however we have always used a specific key (or key combination) to get Gold.
Is it true that you have redefined the single keyboard characters *, >, =  giving an output containing a pre-Gold?

So you couldn't get a normal  *, >, = character?

You don't have to answer my question, I read on about $SWAP_GOLD_PROFILE.

I'll probably set up a similar environment in some weeks and I could then test this. However, hope you get some answer before that...
