Test connection failed

Symptom:

When I use the Mart Upgrade utility on a 64-bit computer and upgrade a r7.3 through r8.2.7 Mart to r9.0.0 through r9.5.0 Mart, I get the following message:

Test connection failed

Solution:

CA ERwin DM is a 32-bit application. When you try to upgrade to r9.0.0 through r9.5.0 Mart on a 64-bit computer, the COM components do not work.

Follow these steps:

  1. Paste the code included at the bottom of this topic to a Notepad file and name it as 64_Bit_Upgrade.reg. Note down the folder where you have created this file.
  2. After installing CA ERwin DM version 9.0.0 through 9.5.0, right-click 64_Bit_Upgrade.reg and select Merge.
  3. From the Windows Start menu, go to Run and type the following commands to re-register the EAL components: 
    regsvr32.exe  "<Install Dir>\CA\ERwin Data Modeler r9.0\EAL.dll" 

    regsvr32.exe  "<Install Dir>\CA\ERwin Data Modeler r9.0\ Upgrade\R8_Binaries\EAL.dll".
  4. Right-click 64_Bit_Upgrade.reg and select Merge again.

    You can now upgrade to version 9.0.0 through 9.5.0 Mart on a 64-bit computer.

64_Bit_Upgrade.reg

Copy the following code and paste it to a new Notepad file:
