Troubleshooting Adaptive Server Enterprise (Primary Database)

Use error.log to display a detailed problem description.

1. Access the error.log file:

   • On Windows, the error log file is %SYBASE_ASE%\install\error.log, where %SYBASE_ASE points to the Adaptive Server installation directory.

   • On UNIX, the error log file is $SYBASE_ASE/install/error.log, where $SYBASE_ASE points to the Adaptive Server installation directory.

2. To investigate the configuration of the primary database, use isql to log in to the primary database:

   isql -S <Server_name> -U <username> -P <password>

   For example, enter:

   isql -S primary_db -U sa -P sa_pass
