Runtime error DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_REQUEST (table DOKTL)

[former_member211904]

I have just installed the NW2004s Testdrive (on Ubuntu Server 10.10).

When I log in as any user, I get a short dump DBIF_RSQL_INVALID_REQUEST saying: An invalid request was made to the database interface when accessing table "DOKTL ".

I have seen some posts suggesting this could be due to entries in the /etc/hosts file, and I wonder whether this relates to the section in the index.html on the DVD that says:

The file /etc/hosts should contain at least the following lines:
Table 1: /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 	localhost 	
n.n.n.n 	<HOSTNAME>.<DOMAINNAME> 	<HOSTNAME>
where "n.n.n.n" is a valid IP-adress. 

Is this the case? If so, what kind of entry must this be in /etc/hosts? This instruction in the index.html is very cryptic to me.

Thanks,

Hello,

I had a very similar problem but on Win2003 Server.

I resolved it after installing MS loop back adapter.

thanks

Did you configure ip address?

did you enter ip address in hosts file? if not enter pls enter.

ex: 192.168.xx.xx hostname

Thanks

Hello Siva,

There is an entry similar to what you mentioned in /etc/hosts, which was added by the S99n4shost script. So /etc/hosts looks as follows (my hostname is nwtd):

127.0.0.1       localhost
127.0.1.1      nwtd

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
192.168.155.1   n4shost

I have tried adding a fully qualified domain name entry with nwtd on both the 127.0.1.1 and 192... lines.

By the way, the message I see in the short dump is

Error text........... "verify own hostname 'nwtd' failed"

but I can ping nwtd successfully etc. What is the reason for this?

[sivakumar_kilari3]

What is your system IP and host name?

if your ip address and host name 192.168.155.1 - nwtd

Enter like this after this entery

127.0.0.1 localhost

192.168.155.1 nwtd
