Starting database … failed in MonetDB

Question

I tried to start a DB after creating it in MonetDB, but I got this error:

starting database 'sf1'... FAILED start: starting 'sf1' failed: database 'sf1' appears to shut itself down after starting, check monetdbd's logfile for possible hints

Do you have any idea?

Answer 1

I solved my problem. I ran an instruction from my log file:

/home/mirzadeh/tools/MonetDB/bin/mserver5 --dbpath=/home/mirzadeh/tools/MonetDB/var/monetdb5/my_farm/sf1 --set merovingian_uri=mapi:monetdb://n125:50000/sf1 --set mapi_open=false --set mapi_port=0 --set mapi_usock=/home/mirzadeh/tools/MonetDB/var/monetdb5/my_farm/sf1/.mapi.sock --set monet_vault_key=/home/mirzadeh/tools/MonetDB/var/monetdb5/my_farm/sf1/.vaultkey --set gdk_nr_threads=24 --set max_clients=64 --set sql_optimizer=default_pipe --set monet_daemon=yes

and got a fatal error regarding locale. I ran locale and see that it cannot set LC_ALL , and LC_LANG . I added these two inst in my bashrc file:

export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_LANG=en_US.UTF-8

Then it works!
