Hi. I'm an new user of maxDB/SAPDB - I'm happy with either term. I got version 7.5.0.5 
from MySql.com earlier this week.

I've followed the guide on installation and instance creation at 
http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/htmhelp/14/774939e5523668e10000000a114084/frameset.htm 

So I installed maxDB, the Database manager (v7.4), then SQL studio.

However I'm having a problem starting up my initially configured instance. The error I 
get (from application event log) is:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
SAPDB - HBC_web :
   - ERROR    TID: 0x350 PID: 0x138 MsgID: 18913
     Error opening parameter file:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
And that's it. 

After installing maxDB (can confirm that unstarted services are present in the service 
manager) I created the installation (logs and datafiles all over 20-00 pages, I 
changed the anme and password of the DBM account and made sure that the complete 
installation took place logged on as administrator) and started the installation 
wizard using the database manager, but basically it won't start.

I can send my installation log if required (from C:\program 
files\sapdb\indep_data\wrk\MaxDBSoftware_install....log) but if you need any other 
config data you'll have to tell me where to look - I can tell yuou that it failed at a 
very early stage in trying to start the instance, though.

Any help would be most appreciated. I anticipate that maxDB will be the corporate 
database for all our OLTP if we get this problem resolved - since the management & 
installation tools looked absolutely superb and the pedigree of the product is 2nd to 
none.
