Hi,

I was about to reply "But I use Underscores in SAPDB 7.3 with no problem", 
but then I saw this message.

It could be a little more apparent though, if instead of "protocol error", 
a message like "Error: Database name must be 8 chars or less, and 
"your_database_name" is 18 chars, which is 10 chars too long.  Please 
shorten the name and try again."  I realize that enterprise database 
software has priorities above its user friendliness, but some things are 
easy enough to implement.

Thank you,

Derek,

the name of a database can have a length up to 8 chars. The underscore
is not your problem, but "VR_Viewer" has 9 chars length...

Shorten your db name.

Hth,
Tilmann

Betreff: Can't create database


I'm able to create the TST database by running the script
create_demo_db.sh. 

I made a copy of this script and changed the SID to "VR_Viewer" 

   # name of the database
   SID=VR_Viewer

When I run the script,  I get the following errors:

   create database VR_Viewer...
   set parameters for VR_Viewer...
   start VR_Viewer...
   start VR_Viewer failed: Error! Connection failed to node (local) for
   database VR_Viewer: protocol error

Is the TST database a special database?  I would have thought I could
create another database just like TST by changing just the SID in the
script.

Derek
