Description:
inside MaxDB dbmcli session, if you didn't input anything, just hit the "return" key, it will hang, no error message, no prompt. the only way to break out it Ctrl-C which will kill the dbmcli session too.
It's really annoying since whenever you hit the return key, you will have to restart the another session.

thanks,
Gary

How to repeat:
open a dbmcli session (with dba user)
in the dbmcli prompt, hit the "return" key

Hello Gary,

I know that this answer will not satisfy you: I failed to repoduce the problem on 7.5.00.19 @ Suse 9.1/9.2. However, let's try to analyse this problem.

You're doing something like this (as user root):

# /opt/sdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -u dba,dba -d myinstance 
dbmcli> help
...
OK
...
dbmcli> gurkensalat (german word, english: cucumber salad)
...
dbmcli> [RETURN/ENTER]

[RETURN/ENTER]

help
*hangs*

I really don't understand this and I'd like to break the fly on the wheel:
strace /opt/sdb/programs/bin/dbmcli -u dba,dba -d myinstance

Can you send me the strace output?

Thanks!
Ulf
