Find below a list of tips relating to using Sybase with Confluence

Case sensitivity issues

All versions of Confluence 2.3 require a patch in order to work with Sybase. This is downloadable from http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/CONF-7925.

Confluence in it's current state will not function with a Sybase db, due to Sybase being case sensitive.  We are currently using Sybase 12 and all throughout Confluence's code, it references columns by both lower and upper case.  It should not be referencing columns in all caps.

Confluence prior to 2.3.2 requires a patch to work with Sybase. 

Thank you Atlassian for correcting this issue in a timely manner.
