Hi,

A couple of hours ago I decided to install build 14, 2009-unicode. So,
I removed the old build, sources and add-ins and installed 14. Now, I
can not connect EDB Manager to the server, I'm getting.

---------------------------
ElevateDB Manager (Unicode)
---------------------------
ElevateDB Error #1100 A connection to the server at '127.0.0.1' cannot
be established ('Socket error: An existing connection was forcibly
closed by the remote host (10054), on API 'recv'')
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------



Actually initially I could not start the server at all, after editing
the options to point to where I have the config files and I later
discovered why, I was getting this in the event manager: "ElevateDB
Error #100 There is an error in the metadata for the configuration
EDBConfig (The encryption password does not match the default or
current engine encryption password)."

I deleted the config files and decided to start all over, add the users
and all that crap. However nothing works. Either server starts and
manger can't connect to it, or, I shut down the server, delete the
files, start manager in local mode, it recreates the config files, than
I close it, now the server won't start. It seems the encryption is
broken between them

At this point I don't know what a heck is going on on (I am also a 6-7
years user of DBISAM C/S and this kind of trouble never hapened before)
.... the most interesting part is that I see nobody complains in here,
so you know how I feel...


Any help appreciated, this really killed a nice EDB week-end party for
me ;-(

It works fine after I recompiled both server and manager.

This means that you're probably running the ANSI EDB Server, but trying to
connect to it with the Unicode EDB Manager.

You shouldn't need to recompile anything.

Well, I know that. But it didn't work otherwise.
I am sure I downloaded and installed the unicode version of the
library, the setup file size is 12,660,736 (build 14 cs srcs) and the
file size of the addon is 13,711,400. I don't think the adon contains a
unicode compiled compiled manager.

Probably it's a good idea if the server will show that in the details
panel. Something like:


EDBSRVR
ElevateDB Server (Unicode)


This way it will always be crystal clear.

How does this sound:


procedure TMainForm.UpdateFixedSystemInfo;
begin
  with ServerDetailsPanel do
     begin
     BeginUpdate;
     try
        Title:=ServerEngine.ServerName;
        Description:=ServerEngine.ServerDescription{$IFDEF
EDB_UNICODE} + ' (Unicode)'{$ENDIF EDB_UNICODE};

Yes it does - it's in the \utils\edbmgrunicode subdirectory.

It shows the name in the form caption:

ElevateDB Server (Unicode)

and it comes directly from the version information in the edbsrvr.exe
application.

Yes, I know. I was saying I thought it was not compiled with the
Unicode symbol defined ... but I was wrong.

I think what happend was that when I installed build 14, Windows
must've updated the shortcut I had for EDB Manager and it was pointed
to the non-unicode version... and I did not notice it

thx,
Lucian
