Re: MonetDB installation

Hi Jiří, Notice the difference between (the deamon) monetdbd and monetdb. First, you should create a dbfarm using monetdbd, e.g., # monetdbd create /home/caucau/data/monetDB_data then start it # monetdbd start /home/caucau/data/monetDB_data then create a database # monetdb create demo && monetdb release demo && monetdb start demo and then connect to it # mclient -d demo Cheers, Kostis On 02/26/2015 05:08 PM, Jiří Nádvorník wrote:

Hi,

So my exact command and error message are as follows:

caucau@ubuntu:~$ monetdb create /home/caucau/data/monetDB_data monetdb: cannot find a control socket, use -h and/or -p

I followed exactly the instructions of installation for Ubuntu/debian. My localhost is normal (127.0.0.1).

Thanks for further answers,

Jiri Nadvornik

Do not run monetdbd as root. You should really be extremely cautious about running programs as root.

Hi Jiří, My guesses: 1) network misconfiguration, hostname versus localhost etc. 2) running monetdbd as a regular user and not monetdb or root.

Hi Jennie,

it happens on the command: $ monetdbd create ~/my-dbfarm

Is it, or is it not the first command I am supposed to run after the apt-get installation (from tutorial I understand it as yes).

Yes, that should be the first thing to run. System misconfiguration could well be the cause here, as Radovan says. But do not use root to run the server.

Thanks,

Hi All,

I have followed the instructions as simple as they are in the docs, but when I tried to start the monetdb create <path to my dbfarm folder>, it cries that it cannot find conrol port (and I have to suply it with -p along with -h and -P parameters).

I am only trying to get things running on localhost - do I need to somehow setup the mserver5 daemon? No mention of that in the tutorial.

Have you started a database first with monetdbd? Check out this page: https://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/monetdbd Hope it helps.
