I downloaded the latest super tar ball MonetDB-Venus-SuperBall-SR1.tar.bz2 to my centos 4.3 box. Here is what i have done so far

tar -jzvf MonetDB-Venus-SuperBall-SR1.tar.bz2 cd MonetDB-Venus-SuperBall-SR1 ./monetdb-install.sh --enable-sql --enable-xquery

mserver5 # MonetDB Server v5.0.0_beta1_2 # Copyright (c) 1993-2007 CWI, all rights reserved # Compiled for i686-redhat-linux-gnu/32bit with 32bit OIDs dynamically

it runs allong and appears to work by installing monetdb in the /root/ MonetDB. After adding /root/MonetDB/bin to my path and adding export MONETDB5_PREFIX=/root/MonetDB to my enviroment i try and start the database with the following command linked # dbname:demo # Visit http://monetdb.cwi.nl/ for further information #warning: please don't forget to set your vault key! #(see /root/MonetDB/etc/monetdb5.conf)

So far so good. Just like the docs. Now comes the trouble, I flip over to another shell and execute the following command

mjclient -lsql -u monetdb

and for the password i use monetdb This is the error that I receive: MALException:setScenario:Scenario 'sql' not initialized Any ideas? I am thinking i have missed something but can't really grasp what that is. -Thanks m
