6.5 SP4 removal

Hi All,

Is it a good idea to uninstall SP4 from a 6.5 installation? Has it been done before?

My requirement is to downgrade a 6.5 SP4 to 6.5.1, hence looking for some info on whether its possible to simply uninstall SP4 from the server.

Pointers are much appreciated!

Welcome to B:bob:B!

What’s the point of the downgrade of such an ooooold BOBJ version? :shock:

It is a good idea to upgrade to a supported version, preferably SAP BI BusObjects 4.0 8)

I know right? :lol:

I am working for an archaeological museum, so older the better :roll_eyes:

Actually, there is a planned upgrade to XI but we currently are running on 6.5 until that happens sometime in next few months. The problem at hand though is to downgrade a non-prod system to be aligned with a prod system which doesnt have SP4. :nopity:

BTW, thanks for the warm welcome!
