Problem Resolution
Client not au-
thorized to con-
nect to server.
This error message means the remote machine does not have permission to display
the user interface on the local machine where you start working:
Xlib: connection to "host_name" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
xhost: unable to open display "host_name"
To correct the problem:
1. Enter the following command at the UNIX prompt of your
local
machine,
where
remote_machine
is the machine on which you are running the installer:
xhost +remote_machine
2. Restart the installer.
Address already
in use.
Enter a different port number on the srvbuild window. The command netstat -a
produces a list of port numbers in use.
Adaptive Server
fails to start.
The shared memory of the operating system may not be set high enough. Adjust
the shared memory value. Restart the installation or upgrade process.
The installer
fails to start.
Restart the installer in debug mode. Set the environment variable LAX_DEBUG
to true before running the installer.
Cannot start XP
Server.
You may receive the following message from XP Server when it is invoked by
xp_cmdshell or some other extended stored procedure:
Msg 11018, Level 16, State 1:
Procedure "xp_cmdshell", Line 2:
XP Server must be up for ESP to execute.
(return status = -6)
Verify that there is an XP Server entry in the Adaptive Server
sysservers
table. If
you created XP Server in a different srvbuild session than Adaptive Server and
you did not specify a related Adaptive Server, srvbuild cannot update the
sys-
servers
table. Verify that the XP server exists in the interfaces file or LDAP server.
Use sp_addserver to add an entry to the
sysservers
table.
Troubleshoot-
ing resource file
installations.
If you encounter problems during the build, configuration, or upgrade process
while using the srvbuild[res], sqlloc[res], or sqlupgrade[res], it may be that these
utilities did not allow enough time for Adaptive Server to shut down properly. Set
the SYBSHUTWAIT environment variable to force the utilities to wait for Adap-
tive Server to shut down. For example, this command forces the utility to wait for
two minutes before proceeding with the next task:
% setenv SYBSHUTWAIT 120
