<![CDATA[Errors - var_name=? and initializing component locks table]]>Hi,

I have used NetXMS for a while on a Win 2008 server, and while it was great when it worked I found it a little unstable and it couldnt be trusted to restart correctly. So I am now moving it to Debian, but would like to create a fresh DB on the same MSSQL server.

I have installed from the .debs available (with unixodbc and freetds) and have got to a point where the DB is installed, but the daemon wont start. When I install the database it succeeds, then 'nxdbmgr check' passes. But when I start the service, the log produces:

[16-Jan-2013 10:02:24.299] Error initializing component locks table

My config file contains:

LogFile = {syslog}
DBDriver = odbc.ddr
DBServer = kgsql
DBName = netxms_linux
DBLogin = netxms
DBPassword = netxms
LogFile = /var/log/netxmsd
LogFailedSQLQueries = yes
DBDrvParams = unicode=false

Any hints on how to overcome the ??? ?

Thanks in advance.

I had enough resources on the same machine so I whacked MySQL on there and it works fine.

nxdbmgr init /usr/share/netxms/sql/dbinit_mssql.sql

Then I tried:
nxdbmgr -c /etc/netxmsd.conf init /usr/share/netxms/sql/dbinit_mssql.sql

Didnt seem to make any difference, as my config file is in /etc which I believe is default.
