Sybase new database from command line not working

Classic Servoy
1

I have been trying to create a new database following moving to 3.5 using the command line on OS X.

I have changed to the servoy/sybase directory and run the two commands.

I get an error

david-pearces-computer:/Applications/Servoy35new/sybase_db davidpearce$ ./dbinit -t appointment.log -z UTF8 appointment.db
SQL Anywhere Initialization Utility Version 10.0.1.3419
SQL error (-80) -- Unable to start database server
Database "appointment.db" not created
david-pearces-computer:/Applications/Servoy35new/sybase_db davidpearce$

Any clues why it is not working any more?
I have tried it on a fresh install of servoy on two macs with the same result

SQL error (-80) – Unable to start database server

It looks like your server was/is not running…

You get that error if you did not set a path to your sybase binaries dir. If you don’t it can’t find dbeng which it needs to create the db.

Thanks Jan

i got that working using the Path command.

Funny thing is that it now says that the database is already their when i try to create it again.

but i cannot get servoy or aqua data to see it.

aqua data sees the repository but nothing else.

Are the default user and password not the same DBA and sql?

Thanks. I am trying to get my MYSQL stuff migrated to Sybase so i can explore mobilink and runtime versions.

BTW 3.5 Great Job

David,

Did you add the new database to the config file?
Sybase seems to have changed the login from case insensitive to case sensitive between release 9 and 10, try dba/sql in stead of DBA/sql.
