i've installed navision 4.0 client and navision database server 4.0 on windows 2003. while installing the navision database server, i've selected the database eg. e:\abc\abc.fdb
when i try to open the database using the option servername ABC that i have defined i get the message " The operating system cannot gain access to the file e:\abc\abc.fdb Please check that the file type and attributes are correct"
if i open the database using the option client, it works perfectly
any help most appreciated

In my six years of experience with Navision i NEVER used this snap-in
The command prompt is much more reliable

Yes, I agree, but there is still more and more people which don't know what is command prompt... :roll:

anyone kind enough to tune me on the command lines for the snap in. thanks
the cache size you specify depends on your internal memory.
The best way to calculate is the following procedure
open task manager when your db server isn't running, on the performance tab note the Available Physical Memory. Subtract 250.000 of this number (should be enough to keep the server running smoothly) and the result is your cache. (note that the maximum cache of a native service is around 900.000)

thanks a lot for your help. one question though, where do i type in those command lines. i've tried to type it in dos prompt but to no avail.
regards
you can try to run the server in a dos box first, to do this just leave out the installasservice part
After the full command has run you must manually start the service in your services window
