These were the steps I performed: 0. I compiled a new kernel with lots of possible shared memory (48 MB) (BTW, the Informix DB runs fine) 1. With the help of rpm2cpio I unpacked the rpm-package: rpm2cpio sybase.rpm | cpio -ivdum (direct use of rpm -i (Marcel Moolenar's port) failed with the error message 'failed to create /var/tmp/xxxx'. Of course, /var/tmp exists and there are no permission or space problems. I checked this) 2. I created a group 'sybase' and a user 'sybase' 3. chown -R sybase.sybase /opt/sybase 4. In the install directory I ran 'sybinit' 5. The configuration and installation seems to run fine until the point where the server tries to boot. A minute or so nothing happens, then an error 514 comes up. Looking at the Sybase Website I learned that thos error means "can not perform the desired action" :-( Has anyone had the same problem? How can it be solved? My system is 4.0-current (about 2 weeks old). I am using the linux-libs from Marcel Moolenaar's port. So I think my system is faily current. Thank you very much in advance.
