I know 12.5 is out, but I'm interested 11.9.2 becuase of hardware limitations. (old machine--see below). I'm new to Freebsd and I just want to install various software to sharpen my db skills. Starting with Sybase then moving onto Oracle, MySQL, etc. We currently run sybase 11.9.2 on solaris at work. I'm fairly knowledgeable with Sybase and Solaris. Steps Taken for sybase 1)rpm -ivh --nodeps --ignoreos the_various_sybase.rpms installed itself into directory /usr/compat/linux/opt/sybase-11.9.2 2) I created a sybase user and group 3) sybase .profile --> export $SYBASE=/usr/compat/linux/opt/sybase-11.9.2 5) export PATH=$SYBASE:$PATH 6) chmod directory sybase:sybase 7) brandelf -t Linux $SYBASE/bin/* brandelf -t Linux $SYBASE/install/* 8) adjusted kernel shared memory values options SHMMAX=(SHMMAXPGS*PAGE_SIZE+1) options SHMMAXPGS=20480 # 80Mb of sharable memory options SHMMNI=4096 options SHMSEG=1024 options SEMMSL=1024 6) Recompiled kernel as root 7) Run srvbuild as sybase I am able to get to the point of building the servers, but the dataserver will not build. I have seen other people messages with this problem, but no answer Error Building master Device ... Master Device Complete. Writing entry into directory services ...Directory services complete. Writing RUN_SERVER file ... RUN_SERVER file complete Starting server ...Task failed Server XXXXXX was not created. XXXX.cfg was not created. The back, mon and xp servers do seem to build. Any ideas. Thanks much. Old, Old Learning machine Quantex - believe it or not. MMX 200 128 Mb 20 Gig maxtor __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! SiteBuilder - Free web site building tool.
