Hello, I migrate one DB from 9.1D to 10.1A, usually I start up my old DB with procontrol, now its only Progress Explorer and i cant use it. I can start my db and access multiuser but only on the same server if i try to access via tcp i got this message:
There is no server active for database mydb on -H 10.21.216.83 -S 9898.

Any clue what i miss?? where can find a good handbook to understand how to use progress explorer tools... for dummies per have? :)
 
Hi.

Shutdown your DB, and try starting again manually with another port number.

example: proserve mydb -S 41900
then try connecting using this new port number maybe your regular port is afected by your new progress installation.

example: prowin32 mydb -H 10.21.216.83 -S 41900

Two questions.

What you mean when you say that you cant use the progress explorer ?

Did you have the two versions installed in your server ?
 
I try that, if i see the proshut, i can see the db up and run, but if i try to use connect command, i got the message **There is no server active for database mydb on -H 10.21.216.83 -S 41900. (704).

When i says i cant use progress explorer i mean i cant configurate to use, because i cant connect to mydb, but i see its the same result with the proserve :(.

And not i uninstall 9.1D and install only 10.1A.
 
Hi.
Could you review the database log file (.lg) searching for any message additional to the normal startups messages?

What products of the new versions are installed in the server?
 
Progress can be very finicky about the name of the database used in these sorts of command lines. If, for instance, you did "proserve -db d:\db\mydb -H x.x.x.x -S xyz" to start the db you might need "mpro -db d:\db\mydb -H x.x.x.x -S xyz" to connect to it from another box even if d:\db is not available to the client. It's one reason that I usually "cd" first and then use the relative path to start the db.
