Sybase 16.0 DB is not getting setup properly on Docker Desktop for Mac

[veekay98]

Getting this error when trying to login to isql
CT-LIBRARY error:
ct_connect(): network packet layer: internal net library error: Net-Lib protocol driver call to connect two endpoints failed

[veekay98]

Here is the output of the command docker run -p 5000:5000 --rm datagrip/sybase:latest

Can someone please help out here? Thanks.

It looks like some issues in Sybase ACE and I start to experience the same issue recently. At least it works in Linux

Mainly caused by https://infocenter.sybase.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.sybase.infocenter.dc00729.1500/html/errMessageAdvRes/CACFEEEC.htm
=> so I need to rewrite start and wait in bash

[ConnorDouglasEmpire]

@tjlee I'm also looking for a resolution to this issue.
Any chance you can give some direction on what needs to be rewritten? I can take a stab at it locally and respond back if I can get it to work as expected?

I've tried upping the 'wait' that's already configured in the entrypoint.sh script to a bigger value, but the app never seems to init properly/i always get the error that @veekay98 mentioned. When i look at the ASE logs, i see the same thing you mention above @tjlee.

I'm running on a Windows host, but I've also tried in a Linux VM and get the same result, even when upping the wait to 75s.

Any guidance is appreciated.

Thanks! :)

[djauregui76]

I would be interested as well on the timeout. @tljee any updates?

Hi, I was just searching for a solution to this very problem and found your question, and a little bit later the answer here.

https://answers.sap.com/questions/13286419/ase-16-signal-11-stack-trace-snapvalidate-kba-3018.html

In your docker RUN script add this -T11889 flag which switches off the Snap Validation routine causing the problem. It is working fine now for me. This only seemed to affect Sybase when run in Docker 20.x.y engine, docker 19.x.y seemed to work fine which is another workaround :).

Using Docker Engine version 24.0.1, can confirm -T11889 fixed the problem! Thank you so much!

[Mustaphabns]

Hi, i'am face to the same problem i'am using the last version of docker engine, i didn't inderstand where we should add -T11889, can you give me an exemple of this ?

I used this command : docker run -p 5000:5000 --rm datagrip/sybase:latest -T11889

# Interfaces file directory: /opt/sybase
# SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise name: MYSYBASE
#

Thnx

First of all, I am sorry for your poor soul that you have to use Sybase (or you actually like it?), I have no choice but to use Sybase because that's what my company had.

Second, follow these steps

1. run command docker run -p 5000:5000 --name sybase -v sybase-data:/opt/sybase datagrip/sybase:16.0
2. wait for it until it stop at

3. If you are familiar with Unix/Linux shell operation, you may continue to step 4-9, else just do 3.1 and ignore step 4-9
   3.1. run command: docker exec -it sybase bash -c "sed -i '$ s/$/-T11889 \\\\/' /opt/sybase/ASE-16_0/install/RUN_MYSYBASE && echo '' >> /opt/sybase/ASE-16_0/install/RUN_MYSYBASE"
4. open another shell, and run command docker exec -it sybase bash to get inside the container
5. inside container shell, run command cd /opt/sybase/ASE-16_0/install
6. inside container shell, run command vi RUN_MYSYBASE
7. add -T11889 \ to the last line such that it should looks something like this (keep one more empty line as the last line), save and exit the file

9. close the container shell
10. open another shell and run command docker stop sybase to stop the Sybase container
11. the first shell that has Sybase container running should now have exited the container
12. run command docker start sybase to start Sybase container again
13. wait for a good 5 minutes to let Sybase correctly setup
14. use your tools/program to login with

• username: tester
• password: guest1234
  or
• username: sa
• password: myPassword

15. when you are done using the Sybase container, run command docker stop sybase to stop it
16. next time you wanna use the container again, just run command docker start sybase, all of the previously stored data are still there because of the docker volume.

Thank's for your quick response, it's not my choice, it's consumer choice :/ .

I still have the same issue when tring to connect to database with ISQL:

/opt/sybase/OCS-16_0/bin/isql -Usa -PmyPassword -SMYSYBASE CT-LIBRARY error: ct_connect(): network packet layer: internal net library error: Net-Lib protocol driver call to connect two endpoints failed

[Mustaphabns]

start your docker, exec an interactive bash, make your RUN file look like this below by adding a line to the last by one line. Restart your docker, it should then work.

$ sudo docker start syb syb $ sudo docker exec --interactive --tty syb bash --login [root@1911757ee96f /]# cat /opt/sybase/ASE-16_0/install/RUN_MYSYBASE #!/bin/sh

i still have the same issue when restarting container or try to connect directly by ISQL

[iambearman]

I don't have isql with me, would you mind share your isql interface file content for reference?
