How can I install Adabas D in FreeBSD?
I had tried but failed as follows.

   rpm -i --force --ignorearch --ignoreos --nodeps *.rpm
   (I had forgotten about traditional way rpm2cpio at this moment.)

after directory adjustment, run x_install,

   export DBROOT=/usr/opt/adabas
   export DBCONFIG=$DBROOT/sql
   export DBWORK=$DBROOT/sql
   export PATH=$DBROOT/bin:$DBROOT/pgm:${PATH}
   cd $DBROOT

   x_install

change to the non-privilege user and move to the system console. then,

   export TERM=vt220
   set noglob
   eval `tset -s`
   unset noglob

   xcontrol

in this wizard, set the MAXUSERTASKS to 3 and the ``Install Serverdb
TESTDB on pcyk'' screen's settings are:

   SYSTEMDEV  F  -     /tmp/z
   TRANS LOG  F  1500  /tmp/z0
   ARCHLOG 1  F  1500  /tmp/z1
   DATDEV 01  F  1500  /tmp/z2

then Ctrl-n(Install), and the status screen appears,

   INSTALL PARAMETERS           OK
   START SERVERDB COLD          OK
   INIT CONFIGURATION           ERROR

the INIT CONFIGURATION is failed with this message:

   *** ERROR -8888: SERVERDB NOT ACCESSIBLE, cannot create communication semapho


Although if the problem is resolved, that is the start of learning
Adabas D with few documentation...


Thanks
