I`m running OWS 7.20 and SE 5.06 on a Solaris 2.5 platform. No problems at all. I just made sure to install into different subdirectory trees and set up shell scripts to load the environment variables for the one I'm using. Even have Openlink running against the SE install and Intersolv against the OWS install. I can't see why you'll have any problems with SE 7 and OWS 7. Jusr watch where you put the files and make sure you have enough machine resources. Seeing as how my old toy SPARC2 only has 32Mb RAM and it's working OK, I wouldn't worry too much about resources on a more modern machine. >Please reply to tlg@tfic.bc.ca Hey, we've been over this issue dozens of times on this n/g. If it's important enough for you to ask, it's important enough to stick around to read the answers. Not as though c.d.i generates hundreds of posts a day. Other people may need to know too.
