system required
Below are the files required to install SQLBase Server on the Win32 platform (Windows95/98 or Windows NT).
| File name | Description |
| Dbnt1sv.exe or Dbnt? Sv.exe | SQLBase engine for Win32 (Window95, 98, NT), where ‘?’ is a user license for the server. |
| Start.dbs | Model database. It is necessary to create a new database. |
| Sql.ini | Configuration file for the server |
| Message.sql | Message constants and description |
| error.sql | Error number and description |
| Country.sql | Country settings for foreign languages (not English by default) |
| Communication DLLs |
See the description of the required DLL in Sql.ini. Most 32-bit communication libraries are used:
|
It is desirable to place all files in a single directory. Next, you need to have a server configuration, i.e. set the server name, country (if you are not using the default setting), communication protocol, and other required settings.
The most important Sql.ini sections for the 1-User SQLBase Win32 Database Server are shown below.
[dbnt1sv]
server_name = SRV1, sqlws32
caching = 2000
sort cache = 2000
; database path
dbdir=C:Centura
database_name = TEST, sqlws32
[dbnt1sv.dll]
comdll=sqlws32
These lines contain the following information. The SRV1 server is configured for the TCP/IP protocol and has database files in the C:Centura directory. The server now has a TEST database installed.
For more information on setting up a Sql.ini server and keywords, see Centura SQLBase Books (SQLBase Database Administrator’s Guide).
