Problem with Local Session over a network - Database is empty |
Thu, May 8 2014 6:24 PM | Permanent Link |
Barry | If I try to connect to my EDB v2.13 B2 Unicode database over a network using EDBMgr with a Local connection, I can connect to the session and open the database, but the database is empty. There are no tables, views, procedures etc.. I have confirmed all versions of EDBMgr are the same, namely v2.13 B2 unicode.
The database is encrypted and so is the catalog and I am using a non-default signature. The Customizations tab has customized Configuration Name, Catalog Name and file extensions. All of this works fine if I connect using EDBMgr with a Remote connection OR if I use a local connection with EDBMgr on the same computer as the database. I have the same problem if I try and access the database with a local connection from a virtual box. The application opens the database and there are no tables etc.. The application can access the database fine with a remote connection. The local connection worked fine until a couple of weeks ago when I decided to move the database to a different directory and change the encryption password from the default value. After doing that I can't access the database with a local session unless the local session is physically on the same machine. This is weird. I have obviously have forgotten to do something when I made changes to the database. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what I need to check? TIA Barry |

Where is the database located and is the database folder defined with relative or absolute path (relative to catalogue). My guess is that database cannot be found - for example if you had your config in "c:\edbconfig" and database configured as "c:\edbdata" then opening config over network (using for example \\myserver\someshare\edbconfig) would fail to open database (since it looks for c:\edbdata instead of \\myserver\someshare\edbdata). Obviously all if this woulr work with remote session (since edbsrvr is local to machine) as well as local session on the machine (since all paths make sense) Make sure your database is specified with relative path (for example "..\edbdata") that is accessible and makes sense when opening over network.
