Event Server Startup Failure

[ewing]

This is probably such a noob question/issue

New install of Datastage TX on an IBM AIX box. I do a eventserver.sh -start on the sever itself and after a few seconds I get the following error:

An Event server with the name /opt/app/mercator/6.7 has not been configured in the Management console. Remember names are case sensitive

The "name" it is complaining about is the root directory where the product is installed and is, of course, a very invalid name for a server in the management console.

I have a event server defined in the management console say ACOTXC1 but have the following issues with that infact:

• Always get a connection refused when trying to do a "connect" despite having a valid Datastage user defined with "God" rights using the event server admin console.
  
  Get the exact same error listed above when trying eventserver.sh -start ACOTXC1

So my basic question is: How do you start the event server!?!

Any insite will be greatly appreciated!

We got this solved. It was cause by not having the correct rights on the server for the user ID running the service. Go figure....
