Starting the PowerBuilder Installer – PB Docs 2019

Double click PowerBuilderInstaller_bootstrapper.exe to
start the PowerBuilder Installer (you must have administrator
privileges to run the installer).

Select to agree to the license terms and click Continue.

Click Install/Modify under
PowerBuilder 2019 R3.

For those who prefer to use the traditional offline
installer, s/he can select Download Offline
Installer and then select the programs and components
s/he wants to download. This will download the offline
installer.

For those who want to upgrade the program, s/he can click
Update and then select the EBF or
MR package for the program s/he wants to upgrade.

Select PowerBuilder IDE
from the Programs tab.

PowerBuilder Installer will also check if the prerequisites
have been installed; if not installed, a warning message (and
installation instructions if any) will be displayed on the right
of page.

If no PowerBuilder Runtime
has been installed on the machine before, then select to install
PowerBuilder Runtime from the
Components tab, as PowerBuilder
IDE requires a runtime to start. If a compatible version of
PowerBuilder Runtime has already
been installed, you could use the existing version or select to
install the latest version of PowerBuilder
Runtime from the Components tab. For more details, refer to
the section called “Installing PowerBuilder Runtime” in Application Techniques.

If you want to install SnapDevelop, .NET
DataStore, and PowerScript
Migrator, follow the installation instructions in Installation
Guide for SnapDevelop.

If you want to install PowerServer (PB
Edition), PowerServer
Toolkit, PowerServer
Help, and PowerServer Web
Component, follow the installation instructions in the
Installing
PowerServer 2019 R3 section in the Installation
Guide for PowerServer (PB Edition).

Based on the program(s) you selected, the available
components will be shown in the Components tab. Select the components you
want to install.

The required components or prerequisites are automatically
selected and cannot be de-selected. The installed
components/prerequisites will still be listed but cannot be
selected (the selection box is greyed out). And you would also
have the chance to select to install the latest version of
PowerBuilder Runtime on the
Components tab.

In the Locations tab, use
the default download location and installation location or specify
where you want the program(s) to be downloaded and
installed.

In the Additional Options
tab, specify a PostgreSQL or SQL Anywhere engine for running the
PowerBuilder demo database.

A 32-bit ODBC driver is required as PowerBuilder IDE is a
32-bit program.

If you specify the PostgreSQL engine, make sure both the
PostgreSQL client (included in Command Line Tools of the PostgreSQL
Windows installer) and PostgreSQL ODBC driver (32-bit) are
installed.

Click Install to begin the
installation.

When installation is complete, read the status message
carefully to make sure installation is successful, and then click
Restart Now to restart the
machine immediately or click Restart
Later to manually restart the machine later.
