I tried to install that version on Windows XP SP3. The installation itself works. After the fist start I get the information that "can't connect to user database".

There is a kernel.exe running, I see a database with the name .UMDB but starting it is failing, the event log just says that.

I can't find a knldiag nor do I know any user data (control/superdba) to find out, why the database is not starting.

Hi Markus

Would you mind providing us the dbstudio.log file. You can find the file here:

<user.home>\sdb\DatabaseStudio\.metadata\.plugins\com.sap.sdb.tools.core

The connect parameters you can find here:

<indep_data>\app\dbstd\um.properties

Best regards

Markus

Hi Markus,

thank you for trying to help me.

I removed the installation meanwhile. The deinstallation left, however, the .UMDB and xserver7210 service, I will try to remove that from the registry manually.

Since the logfile format switched to .xml I was unable to really find out using the database log files what has been the error. Because database studio was not running I couldn't use it to "parse" them nicely and I was too lazy to look up the dbmcli syntax. That x_server seems to run on a different port so I was even unable to connect using a different machine with dbmgui and look into the logfiles in a human readable way.

I tried to use dbmgui instead to create that instance (for MDM), that left me on the parameter site with strange error messages (the popup was wider than my screen) after having changed some parameters.

This is (unfortunately) the 6th time that I tried to make it running and removed it, the installation never worked for me out of the box.
