Hello David, drw-rw---- does not allow anybody to change into that directory. Was that directory created with those permissions by MaxDB software, or was is manipulated manually?
Please do a "chmod 770 /var/opt/sdb/data/MAXDB2/data".

The GUI is running on Windows, but the database is on Solaris 10. The MaxDB version is 7.6. The problem I have is to do with creating the data volume.
