MaxDB Studio issue

[Former Member]

Hi,

I installed MaxDB Studio 7.9.0.8 on my PC, but I cannot connect to any server or database.

Any suggestions how this can be solved ?

Thanks,

Hi Deepak,

when starting Studio everything looks fine, but when I choose My Landscape, Servers and add a server name in the box I got immediately the error message:

User management exception: Unknown host

servername:7210 [servername], -709

But a  telnet servername 7210 works fine !

It's the first time using MaxDB Studio and I'm also not very familiar with MaxDB.

Hi Werner,

On the MaxDB database host please check whether X-server is running or not.

You can start the X_server using the command

x_server start/ stop

Refer documentation http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_6/default.htm -> Glossary -> X Server

Hi Deepak,

are you really sure that my Studio on PC requires that x_server is running in the remote database located on a Linux host.

Acctualy the x_server is running on port 7299.

Due to the error message I don't think that Studio does even try to connect to the remote server.

Please be aware of my configuration, I installed MaxDB Studio on my PC without MaxDB database software. The databases are installed on a remote Linux server, which I can only reach by tunneling the connection via putty.

but the connection itself works, which was verified by telnet with port 7210.

I read something, that MaxDB Studio cannot run without any local database. Is this true ?

Thanks.

Acctualy the x_server is running on port 7299.

X-server should be running on Linix host.

In Database studio while connecting please use port 7299.

Hi,

after I installed a local MaxDB database and after that I installed a new MaxDB Studio, I can connect to the local database.
A connection to the remote servers still does not work, but I think this may be caused by a firewall issue.

Hi Wener,

For remote MaxDB database can you check using correct port which I mentioned earlier in my response.

Also execute the command x_user list on the MaxDB server and share the output.

Hi Deepak,

sorry, I'm a MaxDB newbie but I got only errors when running this command.

Do you perhaps mean xuser list ?

For that I got:

sdb@defrdb1011:/opt/sdb/global/programs/bin$ xuser list

Warning: Error reading xuser entry 0: xuser-file does not exist

Warning: Error reading xuser entry 1: xuser-file does not exist

Warning: Error reading xuser entry 2: xuser-file does not exist
