... So, the time came to do something "real" with it, which in my case starts with loading a schema. For that, I've already got a Java application that works great with Postgres, Oracle, Sybase, DB2 and Informix. Should be a snap with Ingres, I figured! (ouch!) I considered creating a vnode, but I really don't want to in the first place, and in the second place, the keyboard mapping problem won't let me run (do anything with) netutil anyway, so, I can't create a vnode even if I wanted to.
There is a workaround to use netutil and other Ingres tools in case your keyboard layout is broken: Hit ESC key, then keep SHIFT key pressed and hit O key, then P key -> cursor will jump to netutil's command prompt.
When I try to connect using my app (updated to use the Ingres version of the URL - chose NOT to put a password in the URL but rather pass it through the method that takes the username/password separately. I get the exception: DriverManager.getConnectio() exception: com.ingres.gcf.util.SqlEx: Communications error while establishing connection. I thought I'd do a port scan check but there's nothing listening on port 117 - or any other port other than ssh and Postgres. Utility ingstatus says everythng is up and running and I can get into my database with isql/ingres/sql tools. So...
If your using edbc.jar driver, check that JDBC server is turned on. For use of iijdbc.jar, turn Data Access Server on. Use cbf tool to check this.
