Status: Verified
SYMPTOM(s):
Error 1680 in database log file
SYSTEM ERROR: Unable to kill parent process, errno=4. (1680)
SYSTEM ERROR: Unable to kill parent process, errno= . (1680)
Trying to connect to a database in client-server mode
CAUSE:
One possible cause for this error message is the use of an -S parameter that uses port number below 2000.
Even though the database server can be started with a low port number (such as 1029), you might get the 1680 error in the database log file when you try to connect a client to the database.
No error appears on the client side. The client connection simply appears to hang.
FIX:
Many port numbers below 2000 are reserved on UNIX systems even though no entry for them appears in the etc/services file.
Progress recommends you use port numbers above 2000.
