Description:
I downloaded MaxDB on MySQL 7.5.00.19 and installed it on a Windows XP PC. The installation terminated successfully.

I started reading the document about creating a new database instance and according to it...
I issued the following commands:

1) dbmcli db_create MAXDB1 DBM,DBM
2) dbmcli -d MAXDB1 -u DBM,DBM -i maxdb1_01.txt

    where maxdb1_01.txt is an ASCII file with the following content:
             param_startsession
             param_init
             param_put MAXUSERTASKS 5
             param_put MAXSERVERTASKS 15
             param_put CACHE_SIZE 3000
             param_put MAXDATAVOLUMES 5
             param_checkall
             param_commitsession
             param_addvolume 1 LOG LOG_001 F 2000
             param_addvolume 1 DATA DAT_001 F 10000
             db_admin
             db_activate DBA,DBA
             load_systab

    Statements completed successfully...
    ...but only the last statement (load_systab) terminated with error: -24904, ERR_DOMPWRONG: wrong DOMAIN password

As many times I tried connecting to this instance through
   dbmcli -d MAXDB1 -u DBA,DBA (success)
and getting the DB online
   db_online (success)
and asking next to load system table
   load_systab (fail)
the reply was always the above mentioned error.

Alas, this error number (and message) is not covered in the corresponding error messages section of the documentation. (In this category of errors the first mentioned error is the one with EC -24905). Should I consider myself such an unlucky person? I would appreciate your help and your suggestions.

Hello Costas,

this is a known documentation flaw. You can ask in a dbmcli session for help on a command with "help command". This is the help output for load_systab:

/opt/sdb/programs/bin/dbmcli>help load_systab
OK
load_systab              [-u <user>,<pwd>] [-ud <domainpwd>] (needs dbname)

Sadly, the documentation and the help do not mention, that you have to supply a arbitrary domain password. Try this:

/opt/sdb/programs/bin/dbmcli on DEMO>load_systab -ud DBA
OK
0,OK: everything works fine
0,/opt/sdb/7500/bin/x_python /opt/sdb/7500/env/lsystab.py -R /opt/sdb/7500 -d DEMO -u DBA,*
