Re: [MonetDB-users] Meaning of: Scenario not initialized 'sql'

Hi,

Sometimes I get !MALException:setScenario:Scenario not initialized 'sql' from the server when I try to start it in scenarios that usually work without any problems. I can't reproduce it consistently, but sometimes I get it. What does this exception mean?

Thanks.

This exception means that the server is not yet ready for accepting SQL connections. The solution is to try again later.

When the server starts up, it pretty quickly starts accepting connections, but initially only for MAL. When the SQL engine is initialized (which may take a while if there was any recovery to be done), it starts accepting SQL connections as well. You get this exception when you connect before the SQL engine is ready.
