Creating a Sybase databse using the command line (Mac OS X)

Hello All (my first post to the forum)

I downloaded servoy as trial. I now would like to make a little example with my own database (designed in EOModeler which I could already connect to the crm database). I wanted to create a database with the terminal as described in ServoyDevUserGuide2_2.pdf, page 451 but get an error. Hardware: PowerBook, Mac OS X 10.3.9, Servoy 2.2 Developer.

What I did:
cd /Applications/Servoy/sybase_db
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/Applications/Servoy/sybase_db
./dbinit -t SoaringSky.log -z UTF8 SoaringSky.db

Error I get:
Adaptive Server Anywhere Initialization Utility Version 9.0.1.1753
SQL error (-80) – Unable to start database server
Database “SoaringSky.db” not created

I know there is also Sybase Central, but as I am creating the whole db with EOModeler, I just like to create a new database for my test project (solution) and the terminal is sufficient for that.

Has anybody an answer to what I am doing wrong?

Best regards, Robert

I think you also need to set a PATH to the sybase_db directory
