Hello George, The x_server must run to make a JDBC connection possible, as JDBC does connect using TCP/IP, while other tools and interfaces may connect via shared memory, if the connection is local, and not to another host.
So, please send what error occurs when you start the x_server (and possibly the contents of the 'xserver.prt' log file).
