Version:	7.6	OS:	Linux (Suse 9.3 Personal)
Assigned to:	Ulf Wendel	CPU Architecture:	Any

Description:
After starting the X_server with command "x_server start" I got the following
messages: 

krypton:~ # x_server start
WNG 12457  XSERVER  NI Init: Automatic niserver start failed
WNG 12456  XSERVER  NISSL Init: Automatic nisslserver start failed
    12902  XSERVER  started, 'X32/LINUX 7.6.00   Build 012-121-102-632'.

After that when I enter the Command ps -ef I cannot see any process
like vserver !!!
I 've the problem in both cases of installation via RPM and SDBINST.

The version of GlibC is
krypton:~ # rpm -qa|grep glibc
glibc-devel-2.3.4-23.4

What's wrong

How to repeat:
start the x_server again

Thank you for a problem report.

I changed synopsis to a more descriptive one.

Have you tried to install previous (7.5) versions of MaxDB on this system? Did they work properly?

Hello,

it seems that the reason why the x_server does not start properly is, that the
machine has an AMD K6 CPU , because after I installed the hard drive of this Machine to another Maschine with an Intel CPU it works fine.
Now I' ll compile a new Kernel special for AMD CPU and then I' ll try again.

Hi,

you are trying to start X Server services that are not available in the open source version of MaxDB. Skip the start of the SAP NI and SAP NISSL services with:

x_server -W -Y start

Check x_server -h and the manual for details.

Regards,
Ulf
