Hi Morley,
It seems your last problem is indeed in the permissions of your servoy_server.sh.
This is probably due to the fact that you copied this file from the package you downloaded.
Normally Servoy Installer sets the correct permissions.
-rwxr-xr-x 1 admin admin 773 Jan 22 2005 servoy_server.sh
So set the permission to 755 and it should work.
Hi Robert
Made the change to the permissions of the servoy_server.sh file. Although Sybase launches, Servoy Server doesn’t.
This is all quite bewildering and frustrating.
Hi Morley,
Anything in the logs?
Type the following in the Terminal:
cat /Applications/Servoy/.log.txt

Hi Morley,Anything in the logs?

Yes quite a bit.

Hi Morley,
These errors are from when you opened the solution (maybe the batch processor did). Anyway it doesn’t tell me much about the launch problems.
Can you check the console.log when you launch Servoy server?
You can do that with Console.app. (make sure you select the console.log from the left pane).
Hi Robert
Here’s what I did. Shut down Sybase, shut down the Mac, let it settle. Started it up again. Gave it about 10 minutes to complete whatever startup processes it might initiate. Activity Monitor is showing Sybase is running. Checked out Servoy-Admin and couldn’t go there.
I then checked out the Console. The Console log is brief but the System log is voluminous.

Have you just tried to do a ‘manual’ launch of Servoy Server first? In other words, start Developer so that Sybase is running successfully, then in terminal wander over to the Servoy directory and type ./servoy_server.sh followed by a return.
If the Servoy server is located ‘locally’ I like to do this anyway because I like to know if the server goes down and I like to be there if I’m going to install updates, etc. So most of the time this is how I’ve been running Servoy Server from a Mac. But in any case I would start with this and see if it works and what the feedback is in Terminal.

That works. But I’m puzzled why Robert Ivens, Marcel Trapman and others have no difficulties getting Servoy to launch automatically from boot up. I went through a similar odyssey last spring in setting up an Xserve. It was eventually solved but not in a way that’s easy to reproduce. Sigh.
Hi Morley,
If you want I can take a peek at that machine. You need to give me acces via ssh.
Just mail me privately with the details.
Well at least I guess you have it going and it sounds as though this is just a test server for a demo so perhaps in this case it might not be worth mucking with that much. I know it is kind of irritating not to have something working perfectly (and not to know exactly why something is working perfectly when it didn’t before!). But sometimes life’s too short
It so happens that I run our production server on a PC where supposedly it is much easier to have it do an automatic start up. Now admittedly I’m pretty clueless about PC’s but it was very straight forward to set it up and in theory everything works fine. I also tested it by doing a shut down. However the two times I really wanted it to work on automatic start up (when some bozos literally pulled the plug) in fact it didn’t work for some reason. So I’m little wary of automatic start ups in general (at least in terms of having the server in some place where it isn’t easily accessible by someone knowledgeable).
I agree with John for more than 100%.
The funny thing is that I also have Sybase/Servoy starting up automatically on several windows machines without any issues… And, to make life even better… Linux too…
I’m attempting to set up a iMac MacOS X 10.4.8 Intel Core Duo as a Servoy Server. I’ve followed Marcel Trapman’s tutorial on Servoy Magazine, copy and paste. It does not recognize the file Servoy.

Use Lingon, very easy very good.
I will receive my MacBook Pro today (I hope) so I will be able to give you an update friday or this weekend…
Thanks Marcel,
I have It to install in Users Agents or System Agents?
Regards.
Carles Barbal
Hi,
We created a “user daemon” with ProgramArguments
/bin/sh /Applications/Servoy/servoy_server.sh
then we modified
servoy_server.sh,
after
#!/bin/sh
we added a
sleep 25s
to give our database (PostgreSQL) time to start up.
Hi Christian,
I have tried it of the two ways and it has not worked to me (Users Agents and System Agents). I have followed the instructions of the Servoy Server Administrator’s Guide and works correctly.
Tomorrow I will try to connect itself remotely, I have opened the ports 8080, 1099 and Sybase 2638.
Regards.
