ADS(linux) Error 5004 (solved)

[MGA]

We recently acquired the license for the Advanced Database Server and I am having problems regarding the connection on the linux server
Using the function:

AdsConnect60( //192.168.1.27:6262/home/sg/bases/sguario/ser.ads.chico/sgsdatabase.add, 7, "ADSSYS" ,"" , 0, @hConnection )


Error 5004: Either ACE could not find the specified file, or you do not have sufficient rights to access the file. The data dictionary file (//192.168.1.27:6262/home\sg\bases\sguario\ser.ads.chico\sgsdatabase.add) is not found on the server.

Sgs,

ADS for linux is case sensitive. Pay attention for the name of the files. In Linux, customer is different of CUSTOMER.

Vilian,

Thanks for replying, I'm theoretically aware of what you're mentioning, but even then the problem occurs.

Sgs,

I have solved this problem here changing the name of all files to lowercase.

thanks Vilian

I also like to use server aliases to avoid all those long path names.

On adsserver.ini have this line:

[ServerAliases]
Mp10=/long path name

Now change your long path name to Mp10. That's all. BTW, you don't need to share the directory. I like to keep it owned by the "advantage" user/group and set to 660 which means that only the owner can read/write. In this manner no other user but the server service has access to the data. Workstations can only access data when rightfully connected to the data dictionary.

Thank you all for your help. We have identified that the problem has to do with the LINUX network configuration: resolv.conf, we had to reconfigure.
