Answer 1

The dll's of ASE-15.0 were causing powerbuilder application to crash. After reinstalling ASE-15.0 on Server, our powerbuilder 9.0 application started working normally.

Answer 2

Running the PB IDE on Windows Server 2008 is not supported. It's supported as a RUNTIME platform only, for 12.5.1 or higher.

You'll need to upgrade from 9.0 and use a different platform as your workstation.
