Possibility of hosting a WB20 project in WAS24

Hello,

I have received an inquiry for building a web based CRM solution. The to be client is already using a web application in WAS24.

We are actually using WX20 for most of our work.

I would like to know if it is possible to run a project created in WB20 on WAS24?

We will have to use MySQL as database and not HFSQL as this is the requirement of the client.

TIA

I tested a similar thing between v16 and v22 and it was necessary to make several changes to the application because there were slightly different behaviors between the versions.
You have to do exhaustive tests at runtime because you may have different results than what you have in development.

If only dynamic apps are used you can have the 2 WAS (V20 & V24) in the same server without major problems.
If AWP is used don't install the 2 version in the same server, when i tryied that it was a mess.

if the webdev 24 server was configured correctly at install, then yes, no problem.
When installing, there is a question asking if you wznt to support OLDER version of the webdev engine. If answered yes, then ALL older webdev enginbes are installed too, and your webdev 20 website will be managed by the older engine.

You can check that in IIS where one entry per engine is visible.

If this option was NOT checked at the time of the install, then the webdev server will need to be RE-installed, as it's the only time that this option is available.

I have used this many times without any problem (again, IF configured correctly)
