Can't connect to a database with Data Administration

I have OpenEdge 10.1C on a Linux server (RHEL 5.5). From my Windows computer (Win XP), I try to connect to a database using Data Administration, but I receive the error message "** Cannot find or open file /usr/epicor/epicor904/Clientserver/cv/uomdb.d1, errno=2.(43)".

If I use Progress Explorer Tools and start the database, I can successfully connect using Data Administration by clicking "Options" and choosing TCP for network, and filling in the correct Host Name and Service Name.

I would like to connect without starting the database because the software I am installing (Epicor 9.04) is trying (and failing) to access this database during a database conversion process. I assume if I can figure out how to manually connect to the database without starting it, then maybe the Epicor software will work.

Thanks.
 
Just open uombd.db by using any text viewer and you'll see that path to DB extents is written there (d1,b1 etc).
Thus you cant directly connect DB using windows computer because of path problems.

The only way to connect to this DB w/o starting DB Server is:
Implement app server broker and set connection parameter
-db /usr/epicor/epicor904/Clientserver/cv/uomdb.db -RO
