Others may know this, but we just found it... The UniData 'demo' account is presented as an optional installation during the UniData install process. I was installing on a small laptop Virtual Machine, and decided to skip installation of the demo account to save a few bytes.
HOWEVER, the XMLDB tool will not operate *at all* unless the UniData Demo account exists where it's supposed to. It appears the tool always opens some file in the udthome/demo directory at connection time, even if the demo account is not referenced anywhere! We confirmed the bug with IBM, and I'm sure it will be fixed. In my setup, I had modified udthome/include/ud_database to NOT reference 'demo' (it does even if you didn't install it - that's odd!!) and I had set the 'advanced connection' properties to use my account instead. The XMLDB tool still was looking for 'demo'. Nothing helped until I added the 'demo' account back (copied from another machine!) and update the ud_database file again. IBM confirmed the problem and opened an Ecase. For documentation, the error shows "RPC Error" in the dialog title bar that says "Unknown Error [30102] Occurred" in the body of the dialog box. You are then 'connected' to the machine, with no accounts available. And nothing works. This error goes away once the 'demo' account is installed. So the lesson: Demo is *not really* an optional install!! ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
