Anyone w/ SQL Anywhere 9.x experience interested in helping and earning.

[Former Member]

I have a small business and I'm using a program called Client Data System. This program uses Sybase SQL anywhere 9.x. The company no longer supports sever based versions of the program as they have gone to "the cloud". I am my own IT guy and I'm not familiar with sql. My network seems to be functioning properly. For no reason as of yesterday, when trying to log into the program from the one workstation I have, I am getting a Sybase error saying it can't locate the database. I've added the host=(server ip);port=1433 and so on but it is still not working. I would be willing to pay someone for their time to perhaps remotely log on and help get this issue resolved. Or if you can give me any direction where I can go for this specific support.  I can be reached at 203-605-5207. Thanks Joe

Can you provide full connection string from client side?

It seems like you are only specifying host (ip addres) and port values, is this correct?

To connect to running database server ( on a different machine ) , you need to specify host values,

server name, and database name.

With regards to getting a support help for a SAP product that you use,  you need to have suppot contract with SAP.

Hi Joseph,

I'd advise post the thread in dedicated space :

http://scn.sap.com/community/sql-anywhere

I guess it is a standalone Sql Anywhere database. Right ?

The database name usually has .db extension and  should be specified with full path in the standalone application parameters, so it can start it if not already started.

Tayeb.
