Hello Toni,

Please review the documentation at:

&&

http://maxdb.sap.com/currentdoc/default.htm

< Glossary -> X Server >

The XServer is the communication server of the database system. The XServer listens at a service port for connection requests from database applications and database tools.

On UNIX and Linux, the X Server process is called vserver.

Please provide additional information:

-> Do you have SQLStudio < database tool > & database running on the same

server?

-> Please check, if you started the x_server on the database server?

To start the x_server please run : x_server start

<

On Microsoft Windows, the MaxDB installation program registers the XServer as the service XServer, sets the Startup Type Startup Type for this service to Automatic Automatic and starts the service. You do not have to start this manually.

On UNIX/Linux, the X Server is not automatically installed as a service.

>

Check the errors in X-server protocol - xserver_<DB-servername>.prt.

-> What is the version of the database?

-> What is the version of the SQLStudio?

-> What is output of the following commands on the database server:

sdbregview -l

dbmcli -s inst_enum

dbmcli -s db_enum

xinstinfo

xinstinfo <DB-name>

Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina

Tony,

xserver is a service which MAXDB installer installs. Check whether that service is up from your services window. Open the services from COntrol Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services - the xserver service would on the last of the list. If thats down please start it.

Hello Toni,

Please run on the database server the following commands & update with your results:

x_server stop

x_server start

xinstinfo

dbmcli inst_enum

dbmcli db_enum

-> What is the version of the SQLStudio?

< Start SQLStudio -> main menu -> help -> about SQL Studio >

Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina
