Thomas, That was it. In our case it was the libm patch. We updated this and the libc and the problem was solved.
Thanks for the quick response!

Kernel died > before reaching ADMIN state [more details snipped] Last week the same phenomenon was on an internal system. Reason was, that the executable "kernel" could not be startet due to a too low patch level on the target machine. In order to check whether the same is the case on your site, please go to the directory where the file kernel resides and check the dependencies for shared libraries: > ldd kernel : libc.so.1 => /usr/lib/sparcv9/libc.so.1 libc.so.1 (SUNW_1.21.2) => (version not found) If you have the same, you can check the patch level of your machine with: > showrev -a | grep libC Our test machine has: Patch: 111711-08 Obsoletes: Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWlibC Patch: 111711-09 Obsoletes: Requires: Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWlibC Patch: 111712-08 Obsoletes: Requires: 111711-08 Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWlibCx Patch: 111712-09 Obsoletes: Requires: 111711-09 Incompatibles: Packages: SUNWlibCx Regards Thomas ---------------------------------------------- Dr. Thomas Kötter SAP AG, Berlin NW DT MaxDB MaxDB: all you need! www.mysql.com/products/maxdb www.sapdb.org -- MaxDB Discussion Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/maxdb To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
