Hi, How do I set vaultkey? Thanks. Dariusz.
With merovingian you don't have to. But if you want, edit the .vaultkey file in the dbfarm/dbname directory.
I should have noted that if you do, you will render your database inaccessible. So unless you have a good reason, don't do it.
Hi, Her is the reason ./mserver5 --dbinit="include sql;" this created the 'demo' in the 'dbfarm' ./merovingian ./monetdb start demo cannot start database 'demo': no .vaultkey found (did you create the database with `monetdb create demo`?) Why is that? Dariusz. Fabian Groffen wrote:

As the message says, because you didn't create that database using the monetdb create command. For extra security, the monetdb command generates a vaultkey for each created database. If you just manually start mserver5, this doesn't happen, and a default/fallback key is used.
