After the installation of Content server (MaXDB) and restart of the server we are unable to start the MaxDB we are using dbmcli ( local machine) and MaxDB client ( remote machine) to connect to the database. We are getting -24950 error , we are using Hp Unix 11.23 and MaxDB 7.6 . We have tried with default users ( superdba, control and control user with the password which we defined while installation ) also however none of them found working .

The sdbverify results are also proper with all consistency.

We have 5 users in total after the installation of Content Server .

1. sapcs ( user as per guide )

2. sapcsc ( user as per guide)

3. sdb ( disabled user)

4.sqdsdb ( part of sdba group)

5.sqdcdb ( part of sdba group)

Thanks for the forum posts , I found one post saying to use first 9 characters of the password and it worked.
