Sterling, did you start the monetdb daemon (monetdbd), first? See also http://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/monetdbd Stefan Sterling Paramore wrote: Thanks, but I'm not terribly interested in building from source. These installation instructions seem to end after it's compiled. I downloaded the binaries for OS X and put them in /usr/local/monetdb, and added /usr/local/monetdb/bin to my PATH. I found http://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/Tutorial (which is maybe supposed to be the same thing as the broken link?) But when I try the first step, I get the following error: [- opt -] monetdb create /opt/monetdb monetdb: cannot find a control socket, use -h and/or -p Google was not helpful. Any ideas?

The link at http://www.monetdb.org/Downloads/Tutorial is broken and I don't see any way to contact the creators of the web page. How can I get information about how to install MonetDB?****
