ArcSDE 9.3 Service Pack 1

A DVD of this Service Pack will be made available in the next several weeks for users who experience difficulties downloading the Service Pack from the web site. Simply fill out the Request a Service Pack DVD order form.

ArcSDE 9.3 must be installed before you install this Service Pack. It is strongly recommended that you back up your database including all previous ArcSDE system tables and user layer data before upgrading your ArcSDE installation.

If you need to make a direct connection from an ArcIMS, ArcGIS Desktop, or ArcGIS Server 9.2 Service Pack 5 or 6 client to an ArcSDE 9.3 Service Pack 1 geodatabase, you need to install the corresponding forward-compatible direct connect drivers. These can be obtained from the following page:

• ArcGIS 9.3 SP 1 geodatabase direct connect for 9.2 clients setup
  

  If you were previously making a direct connection from an ArcIMS, ArcGIS Desktop, or ArcGIS Server 9.2 Service Pack 5 or 6 client to an ArcSDE 9.3 geodatabase, you must install the ArcGIS 9.3 SP 1 geodatabase direct connect drivers for 9.2 clients. Installing these files will uninstall (Windows) or overwrite (UNIX/Linux) the previous version and install the new libraries.

To find out what ArcGIS products are currently installed on your machine, download and extract the PatchFinder.tar and run PatchFinder utility from your local machine. This utility provides a report detailing which ArcGIS products and which servicepacks have been installed. The PatchFinder utility searches for the following ArcGIS products.

• ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for C++
• ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for the Java Platform
• ArcGIS Engine Runtime

7. Start your service again.

   % sdemon -o start

8. Only for users who have Oracle and ArcSDE installed on separate machines.

   • If you are installing ArcSDE on a different server than Oracle, you must copy the shared libraries used by EXTPROC to the Oracle server. These libraries include st_shapelib plus the Geometry library and the Projection Engine library. (The names of these files vary depending on what operating system (OS) you are using.) Be sure the files copied to the Oracle server are designed to run on the operating system of the Oracle server. For example, if ArcSDE is installed on a Linux machine, but Oracle is installed on a Solaris machine, the library files you copy to the Oracle server must be for Solaris. To get the files for different operating system, you can install the software files of the ArcSDE component on the Oracle server, creating the SDEHOME files, and delete everything but the three required library files.

     Library Name	OS-dependent file names
     st_shapelib	st_shapelib.dll, libst_shapelib.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)
     Projection Engine	pe.dll, libpe.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)
     Geometry	sg.dll, libsg.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)

     These files can be found in the bin (Windows) or lib (UNIX/Linux) directory of SDEHOME after you've installed the ArcSDE component. You can copy these files to the %ORACLE_HOME%\lib (Windows) or $ORACLE_HOME/lib (UNIX/Linux) directory on the Oracle server, which is the default location that Oracle looks in for shared libraries. Or, you can leave these files where they were installed or move them into any directory that is accessible to the user that owns ORACLE_HOME.

   NOTE: If there is no native ArcSDE build for the operating system of the server hosting the Oracle database, then there is no support for SQL access to ST_Geometry. ST_Geometry storage can be used from ArcSDE clients, but SQL access to this data is not supported. For example, if you use an ArcSDE 32-bit build to connect to a 64-bit Oracle database on a 64-bit operating system, you cannot use SQL to access the ST_Geometry type.

9. If you have more than one ArcSDE geodatabase, perform steps 1 through 8 for each one.

It is important to keep all versions of ArcGIS products installed on the same machine in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

To find out what products are currently installed on your machine, download and run the PatchFinder93.exe utility. This utility provides a report detailing which ArcGIS products are currently installed on your machine. This will help determine which product Service Packs you should install on your machine. The report also details which service packs have been installed. The report is displayed when the utility is run and a servicepack.txt log file is created in your temp folder. The Service Pack Finder utility searches for the following ArcGIS products.

• ArcGIS ArcReader
• ArcGIS Desktop (ArcView, ArcEditor, ArcInfo) Includes the ArcReader fixes for the ArcReader FEATURE.
• ArcGIS Desktop Developer Kit for the Microsoft .NET Framework, VB6, VBA and Visual C++
• ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit for C++, the Java Platform, the Microsoft .NET Framework, VB6 and Visual C++
• ArcGIS Engine Runtime
• ArcGIS Image Server
• ArcGIS Server for the Microsoft .NET Framework
• ArcGIS Server for the Java Platform
• ArcGIS Server Web ADF Runtime for the Microsoft .NET Framework
• ArcIMS
• ArcIMS Web ADF for the Microsoft .NET Framework
• ArcIMS Web ADF for the Java Platform
• ArcSDE

NOTE (ArcIMS and ArcGIS Desktop users): If you use ArcIMS 9.3 or ArcGIS Desktop 9.3, you must also install ArcIMS 9.3 Service Pack 1 or ArcGIS 9.3 Service Pack 1.

• For example, if you use ArcIMS 9.3 and ArcSDE 9.3, install both ArcIMS 9.3 Service Pack 1 and ArcSDE 9.3 Service Pack 1. Since ArcIMS 9.3, ArcSDE 9.3 and the ArcGIS 9.3 products share common DLLs, it is important to keep the software release versions in sync to avoid any software conflicts.

If you need to make a direct connection from an ArcIMS, ArcGIS Desktop, or ArcGIS Server 9.2 Service Pack 5 or 6 client to an ArcSDE 9.3 Service Pack 1 geodatabase, you need to install the corresponding forward-compatible direct connect drivers. These can be obtained from the following page:

• ArcGIS 9.3 SP 1 geodatabase direct connect for 9.2 clients setup
  • If you were previously making a direct connection from an ArcIMS, ArcGIS Desktop, or ArcGIS Server 9.2 Service Pack 5 or 6 client to an ArcSDE 9.3 geodatabase, you must install the ArcGIS 9.3 SP 1 geodatabase direct connect drivers for 9.2 clients. Installing these files will uninstall (Windows) or overwrite (UNIX/Linux) the previous version and install the new libraries.

1. Install this Service Pack as a server administrator, then upgrade your geodatabase using your ArcSDE administrator account.

   Make sure you have write access to the ArcSDE installation folder, that no one is using ArcSDE, and that the ArcSDE service is down.

   • NOTE: If you do not shut down the ArcSDE service before installing this Service Pack, you will be prompted and required to reboot your server machine in order to successfully complete the Service Pack installation.

2. Download the appropriate files to a location other than the ArcSDE installation folder:

   DB2	ArcSDEDB293sp1.msp	4 MB
   DB2 for z/OS	ArcSDEDB2zOS93sp1.msp	4 MB
   Informix	ArcSDEInformix93sp1.msp	4 MB
   Oracle 9iR2	ArcSDEOracle9i93sp1.msp	4 MB
   Oracle 10gR2	ArcSDEOracle10g93sp1.msp	4 MB
   Oracle 11g	ArcSDEOracle11g93sp1.msp	4 MB
   PostGres SQL	ArcSDEPG93sp1.msp	4 MB
   SQL Server	ArcSDESqlServer93sp1.msp	4 MB

   
   
3. Double-click the ArcSDE<Database>93sp1.msp to start the install process.

   • NOTE: If double clicking on the MSP file does not start the Service Pack installation, you can run the Service Pack manually by using the following commands.

     c:\msiexec.exe /p [location of service pack]\ArcSDE<Database>93sp1.msp

4. When Setup starts, follow the instructions on your screen.

   • (Oracle only) Before upgrading your Oracle instance, you must grant the following additional permissions to the SDE user in Oracle:

     • ADMINISTER DATABASE TRIGGER
     • ALTER ANY INDEX
     • ALTER ANY TABLE
     • ANALYZE ANY
     • CREATE ANY INDEX
     • CREATE ANY PROCEDURE
     • CREATE ANY SEQUENCE
     • CREATE ANY TRIGGER
     • CREATE ANY VIEW
     • CREATE INDEXTYPE
     • CREATE LIBRARY
     • CREATE OPERATOR
     • CREATE PROCEDURE
     • CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM
     • CREATE SESSION
     • CREATE SEQUENCE
     • CREATE TABLE
     • CREATE TRIGGER
     • CREATE TYPE
     • DROP ANY INDEX
     • DROP ANY PROCEDURE
     • DROP ANY SEQUENCE
     • DROP ANY TABLE
     • DROP ANY VIEW
     • DROP PUBLIC SYNONYM
     • EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
     • SELECT ANY SEQUENCE
     • SELECT ANY TABLE

5. To upgrade, run sdesetup. Failure to do so may cause problems in starting the service or with connecting to the service. Please go to the admin command guide under the %SDEHOME%\documentation folder for more information on using this command:

   c:\ sdesetup -o upgrade -d <ORACLE9I|ORACLE10G|ORACLE11G|SQLSERVER|DB2|INFORMIX|POSTGRESQL> –u <DB_Admin_User> –p <DB_Admin_password>

6. (Oracle only) After the upgrade completes, you may revoke the following permissions from the SDE user account:

   • ADMINISTER DATABASE TRIGGER
   • ANALYZE ANY
   • ALTER ANY INDEX
   • ALTER ANY TABLE
   • CREATE ANY INDEX
   • CREATE ANY TRIGGER
   • CREATE ANY VIEW
   • DROP ANY INDEX
   • DROP ANY TABLE
   • DROP ANY VIEW
   • DROP ANY PROCEDURE
   • DROP ANY SEQUENCE
   • EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE
   • SELECT ANY SEQUENCE
   • CREATE INDEXTYPE
   • CREATE LIBRARY
   • CREATE OPERATOR
   • CREATE TYPE

7. As the SDE user, run the following command to restart the ArcSDE service:

   c:\sdemon -o start

   Or, as a Windows Administrator, start the service from the Windows Services menu.

8. Only for users who have Oracle and ArcSDE installed on separate machines.

   • If you are installing ArcSDE on a different server than Oracle, you must copy the shared libraries used by EXTPROC to the Oracle server. These libraries include st_shapelib plus the Geometry library and the Projection Engine library. (The names of these files vary depending on what operating system (OS) you are using.) Be sure the files copied to the Oracle server are designed to run on the operating system of the Oracle server. For example, if ArcSDE is installed on a Windows machine, but Oracle is installed on a Solaris machine, the library files you copy to the Oracle server must be for Solaris. To get the files for different operating system, you can install the software files of the ArcSDE component on the Oracle server, creating the SDEHOME files, and delete everything but the three required library files.

     Library Name	OS-dependent file names
     st_shapelib	st_shapelib.dll, libst_shapelib.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)
     Projection Engine	pe.dll, libpe.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)
     Geometry	sg.dll, libsg.so (.sl for HP, _64.so for IBM64)

     
     

     These files can be found in the bin (Windows) or lib (UNIX/Linux) directory of SDEHOME after you've installed the ArcSDE component. You can copy these files to the %ORACLE_HOME%\lib (Windows) or $ORACLE_HOME/lib (UNIX/Linux) directory on the Oracle server, which is the default location that Oracle looks in for shared libraries. Or, you can leave these files where they were installed or move them into any directory that is accessible to the user that owns ORACLE_HOME.

   NOTE: If there is no native ArcSDE build for the operating system of the server hosting the Oracle database, then there is no support for SQL access to ST_Geometry. ST_Geometry storage can be used from ArcSDE clients, but SQL access to this data is not supported. For example, if you use an ArcSDE 32-bit build to connect to a 64-bit Oracle database on a 64-bit operating system, you cannot use SQL to access the ST_Geometry type.

9. If you have more than one ArcSDE service, perform steps 2 through 8 for each of your ArcSDE services.

1. Download the appropriate tar file to a location other than ArcSDE SDK installation location:

   All Databases (32 bit Operating System)	Link	Size

3. Double-click the appropriate executable to start the install process.
4. When Setup starts, follow the instructions on your screen.

If you connect to ArcSDE 9.3 from ArcGIS 9.3 or ArcIMS 9.3, you must install the corresponding Service Pack for your client product. The client updates contained in ArcSDE 9.3 Service Pack 1 are also included in ArcIMS 9.3 Service Pack 1 and ArcGIS 9.3 Service Pack 1. This is necessary to maintain version compatibility between the client and the server applications.

If you make a direct connection from a 9.3 Service Pack 1 client to an earlier release ArcSDE geodatabase, you need to install the ArcGIS Pre-9.3 geodatabase direct connect drivers.

If you connect to ArcSDE 9.3 using ArcInfo Workstation 9.3 please follow the steps below to install this Service Pack to your ArcInfo Workstation 9.3 software installation location:

1. Before you start, make sure you have write access to the installation directory then download the appropriate compressed tar file to that location:

   HP-UX	sde93-sp1-esri-hp.tar.gz	11 MB
   IBM	sde93-sp1-esri-ibm.tar.gz	10 MB
   Linux	sde93-sp1-esri-lx.tar.gz	14 MB
   Solaris	sde93-sp1-esri-slrs.tar.gz	10 MB

   
   

2. Gunzip and extract the specified tar file for your platform. Ensure that the last letters of the file name are ".gz". Otherwise, the gunzip command will not work. At the UNIX prompt type:

   % cd <Workstation Installation Directory>/lib (i.e. cd $ARCHOME)
   % gunzip sde93-sp1-esri-<Platform>.tar.gz
% tar xvf sde93-sp1-esri-<Platform>.tar

1. Before you start, make sure you have write access to the installation folder, then download the zip file to that location:

   sde93-sp1-esri-win.zip

   12 MB

   
   

2. Use WinZip to extract the new files from sde93-sp1-esri-win.zip to the appropriate installation folder, see list below:
