Recent installation of MonetDB showed the following text at the end of the installation.
==================================== You can start using MonetDB/SQL by starting /root/countdb/bin/merovingian in the background. Read the merovingian(1), monetdb(1) and mclient(1) manpages to learn how to create a database and afterwards connect to it. ====================================
Is "merovingian" ready for usage?
When I type "merovingian" I am getting the following error:
=============================================================================== unable to create .merovingian_lock file in /root/countdb/var/MonetDB5/dbfarm: No such file or directory ===============================================================================
That's because there is no MonetDB5 directory yet. This may be of importance to us as I need to do the following:
- Run MonetDB in background - Create the database directory, LOG, CheckPoint and any other files related to any database in a user specified directory.
Right now I am using mserver5 executable in a script to start MonetDB in the background. This script was provided by you (Fabian)
Please let me know if I need to start using "merovingian" for my needs.
Thanks,
