Where are my SDE 10 commandline tools?

[RenéBaumstark]

I was successfully able to upgrade SDE for SQL Server from 9.3 to 10. I installed the ArcSDE for Windows 10 which installed my post installation tools, but where are the sde commandline tools? There is no longer a bin folder of executables in my sqlexe directory? Note that i have a legacy Oracle SDE 9.2 installation running concurrently. Windows Server 2003 R2.

Thanks, René

Hi Rene,
1. Review the current sdehome set up in the environment variables.

eg:
C:\>echo %SDEHOME%
C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\ArcSDE\ora11gexe\

2. If the otuput is set to .....\sqlexe\ then you can review the location for the bin directory.

ArcSDE 10 installation defaults to "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\" unless a different folder is specified. The SDEHOME then becomes "C:\Program Files\ArcGIS\ArcSDE\sqlexe\".

3. You can also run the following command to review the appropriate ...\sqlexe\bin directory being used.
eg:
C:\>echo %PATH%

4. Review the appropriate Program Files directory if the installation is a 32 or 64bit.

Thanks

Well, That explains it, careless mistake, i installed ArcSDE in the ArcGIS/ArcSDE rather than ArcGIS. I had assumed the installation was in the correct directory and everything was intact since my connections were working, but it was the direct connections that were functioning, Application Server connections, which rely on the creation of Windows services during the post-install were not functioning. I figured it would be safest/easiest to uninstall ArcSDE (and delete services) for MS and reinstall in in the correct directory. Problem solved. Fortunately I am working in development. Thanks for your help, René
