Uic config file has only those 4 basic parameters defined. Our unidata runs on AIX.
Our unirpcd has -rwxrwx--- permission. Privilege has the same -rwxrwx--- permission. VOC has the same again -rwxrwx---. There is no sticky bit set on any of these. So, like you said, I guess $UDTBIN or rpc stuff seems to be fine. I get the error after I have been prompted for the password and as soon as I hit 'Connect' to connect to my test database. I wonder if it has to do anything with files created using Envision (the API from Datatel). I think the files under demo was created at the unidata prompt. And I don't know what Envision internally does, what it does it set and what entry it makes where!! I am really not sure about this part, but just a thought. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Amy Cook Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 11:08 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2][UD] ODBC to UniData Hm...ok, shot in the dark here...... What does your uci config file look like on your machine? Do you have any parameter defined besides the 4 basics? (like perhaps an account name?) DBMSTYPE = UNIDATA NETWORK = TCP/IP SERVICE = udserver HOST = xxxxx Second, I seem to remember (this was a while ago...) seeing this specifically on an AIX system where sticky bit was set....can't remember if it was on the unirpcd or maybe the privilege file or VOC in the account directory. However, if this were the case, obviously it would be account specific since you can connect to demo, so that would point me away from any unirpcd or anything in $UDTBIN. Maybe a better question to ask is....At what point do you get the error? Is it after you've been prompted to enter the password to connect? Before you are prompted to choose from your list of views? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chauhan, Savita Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 8:37 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2][UD] ODBC to UniData It says permission. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Amy Cook Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 10:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [U2][UD] ODBC to UniData Does it say permissions or privilege? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Chauhan, Savita Sent: Thursday, September 09, 2004 7:50 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [U2][UD] ODBC to UniData Hi, I have been trying to connect to our UniData server via ODBC. It connects fine to the demo database. But when I try to connect to my own test database from MS-Access or VSG, it gives an error message "You don't have permissions to chdir to /datatel/development/coldev" !! I create files using Envision API from Datatel in the DEVelopment account/database (/datatel/development/coldev). The entry in my ud_database file looks like this: DATABASE=demo UDTHOME=/usr/ud52 UDTACCT=/usr/ud52/demo TRACE_LEVEL=0 DATABASE=test_db UDTHOME=/usr/ud52 UDTACCT=/datatel/development/coldev TRACE_LEVEL=0 I have been fiddling around with so many things, changing permissions on files, changing the ownership, etc, as suggested by a few people; but nothing seems to work!!! Do I have to make some change/entry in some other file too for me to be able to access the DEV account/database via ODBC? Can someone tell me what am I doing wrong? Thanks. ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
