FACT(s) (Environment):

Progress 9.x

SYMPTOM(s):

Parameter File: Not Enabled. (4282)

Specifying a parameter file (.pf) in Progress Explorer.

The parameter file contains the -db parameter.

CAUSE:

When you start a database in Progress Explorer it is actually doing a "proserve <database name>" and attaches the additional parameters after it like the -pf parameter. Please see the following example:

proserve sports2000 -pf progress.pf

Where progress.pf contains:
-db sports2000
-H pc
-N tcp
-S 1234

The -db is a Client Connection (CC) parameter and not a Database Server (DBS) parameter. It tries to start the sports2000 database twice which is not possible. This will result in the parameter file not being used and thus the database log file will report message 4282.

FIX:

Make sure you only use Database Server parameters when starting up your database.
