Hi all! :) I have just subscribed to the list, and this is my first post here (newbie!), so first a little intro about me and then the question :) My name is Victor Medina, and i am linux admin and java developer for a small hardware retailer in Venezuela, named Ferreteria EPA, we have the politic of building all of our software in-house. nice eh? :) I am currently developing our next generation POS's for the store, we are using linux, java and mysql for all of our developments. Sooo this is me :)
Ok, now the questions. I have just downloaded installed the MaxDB server in a test server, wich run a plain-vanilla Red Hat 9 in a P4, 512ram machine. I followed the installation instructions described in the MaxDB Documentation, but been having problems creatin db instances using the webdb app. I'll describe briefly my installation procedures so you can see, where i did wrong. 1.- created the services in my services files as follows: sql6 7210/tcp # SAP DB Services sql30 7200/tcp # SAP DB Services sapdbni72 7269/tcp # SAP DB Services 2.- created 2 users, and 2 groups also: sapdb and sapdbsupport, they are supposed to be the groups and users of the db server and process 3.- started the installation with dbinst, use the "all" profile(option 10), and installed the software under the /home/sapdb directory. owner of the database was set to sapdb user, and the group was set to sapdbsupport. Everything under the /home/sapdb is own by sapdb and the group is sapdbsupport. I shoul also mention that sapdb user is member of sapdbsupport group. 4.-i did a little hack on ld.so.conf so the linker could do it's job in the /home/sapdb dir, my ld.so.conf looks like this: /usr/kerberos/lib /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/sane /usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib /home/sapdb/sdb/programs/web/lib /home/sapdb/sdb/programs/lib This was necesary in order to be able to start the web server. I started the server, and everything seems to be running OK The problems comes when i try to create an instance to start using MaxDB. I am using the webdbm interface, and use "New Database" option. Under the "Install Data Base Instance" i put a name, to identify the instance i want to create, then i select the server i wanted to create the instance in, used the sapdb user and password, then in the "Data Base User" as DBM i am using the sapdb user and in DBA i am using the sapdbsupport user, they are both members of the sapdb and sapdbsupport groups, but i constantly recieve the same error message: -24875 The operating system user is not a member of the database administrators group Can somebody help me here?
