This section describes how to start EAServer, Management Console, and the ASA database.
Change to the EAServer bin directory, and run start-server; for example:
cd /work/Sybase/EAServer/bin start-server.sh
The server starts and runs as a foreground process in the
current console window. To start the server in a separate window,
use the -xterm
option; for
example:
cd /work/Sybase/EAServer/bin start-server.sh -xterm
The server starts in a new X terminal window. To use this option, you must have installed and configured X-Windows. In other words, the xterm command must successfully launch a terminal window in the shell where you start the server.
There are other ways to start the server. For details, see “Starting the server” in Chapter 3, “Creating and Configuring Servers,” in the EAServer System Administration Guide.
With EAServer running, you can start the Management Console to configure new servers, packages, and components, and so on.
Starting the Management Console
The Management Console allows you to configure servers, packages, and components. To start the Management Console:
With EAServer running, launch a Web browser and
enter the URL of the Sybase Management Console (http://host:port/console,
where host is the host on which EAServer resides
and port is the HTTP port used to receive client
connections). Enter admin
as
the user name, and the password that you established for this user
during the installation and click login. You can reset this password
using the set-admin-password command, which is located
in the bin subdirectory of your EAServer installation.
Select any of the installed plug-ins to access EAServer resources.
When you install EAServer, the default host name for all listeners is set to the name of the host machine and the default IIOP port number to 2000. After connecting to EAServer, you can use the Management Console to edit the listener properties and change the default host name and port numbers. See “Configuring listeners” in Chapter 3, “Creating and Configuring Servers,” in the EAServer System Administration Guide.
Starting Adaptive Server Anywhere
After you have started EAServer, you must start ASA before you can run any sample application.
Make sure the xterm utility runs in your environment.
To start the ASA database server, go to the bin subdirectory of your EAServer installation and run:
./asa-start.sh
