Verify that the SAP Sybase license server (SYSAM) that you intend to use with the Appeon Server does not include the EJB (Enterprise Java Beans) option. If ASE EJB license is present, EAServer will start as "SAP Enterprise Application Server (ASE Edition)" which only supports EJB components. Other component types, including PowerBuilder, are not supported. PowerBuilder support is required for the Appeon Server to function properly. For instructions on how to check and remove the ASE EJB option, refer to Appeon Troubleshooting Guide.
