Hello,

I'm trying to initialize my database and got the message, Unable to find or open <file>.lk, errno=13.

How could I fix this problem?

Thanks.

Regards,

Emerson
 
It is a perimssion error. It would help if you told us some more details like OS and the way you start the database (proserve or progress explorer). Progress version is also always interesting to know.

If your on windows then my guess is you're using progress explorer and the place where the database resides doesn't have permission for the acount the adminservice was started with. (This means that issueing a proserve would start the database).

If your on unix like envrionments then it can be that the suid bit isn;t set for your progress executables.

Do you have read/write permission on the folders that hold the database files? How are you trying to "initialize" the db (what are you wanting to do and what commands do you use). Oh, and what Progress/OpenEdge version are you using?
 
Thanks for reply.

Sorry, I should have mentioned my OS and Progress version. I'm using Progress 10.A and IBM AIX.

I've talked to my sysadmin and he gave me the permission.

Thanks a lot.
