[minorVersion=5][productVersion=2.5.0.25920 Firebird 2.5 Release Candidate 2]
Cause
In Oracle, in the SAS_COMMENT table, the COMMENT_TXT column is defined as a CLOB, whereas in the SAS Framework Data Server, the COMMENT_TXT column is defined as a LONGVARCHAR.
A data adapter is needed to convert from a CLOB to a LONGVARCHAR.
Solution
To work around this issue, you need to do a new installation and then use the promotion tools to promote the data from SAS 9.2 to SAS 9.3. This is fixed in SAS 9.3 (TS1M2) revision 12W35 and later.
