what happens if you execute that command as user root manually (replacing ***** with the password)

Hi,

we have executed this command :

/sapdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -R /sapdb/ECC/db db_create ECC CONTROL, password

and we have the error :

DBM-Api error ( -4 'Reading header from pipe:closed by serve')

Hello,

It is a user\password issue.

Please go through below help content:

http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/44/c37584865960efe10000000a155369/frameset.htm

By the way are you trying to provide password for CONTROL as "password" ????

Try to use the password "control" instead of "password".

Hi,

the "password" is an example in the my message.

the right password is "adil2008"
