Ayanova won't start after having been running

AyaNova 7 (legacy version) Firebird Server related

After being out of the office for a week and my staff not using the system, I tried to start Ayanova and got the following message.

AyaNova was unable to start

Depending on how early in startup the problem occurred,
a detailed log of the problem with suggestions may have
been saved to the file AyaLog.txt
located at: file:\C:\Program Files\Ground Zero Tech-Works Inc\AyaNova 3

I tried starting Ayanova from the server computer and got the same message. Any ideas? As always, thanks for your time.

Hi Michael

On the server itself (where the AyaNova database is and Firebird is)from a DOS prompt, type

ipconfig

This will identify the ip address of the server - is it 192.168.1.106?

Open Control Panel - double-click on Firebird Manager - is it running?

Yes, Firebird is running but it shows the IP address to be 192.168.1.100.

Hi Michael

That would be why the AyaNova program can not connect to the database - because the configuration file is pointing towards a different IP address.

Either you have dynamic ip’s set up (IP addresses change) or someone changed the IP address of this server.

A suggestion is to edit every computers AyaNova.exe.config to use the server’s name instead of the server’s IP address.

For example in the AyaNova.exe.config you presently have DataSource=192.168.1.106 - change it so that it is DataSource=servername where servername is the name of the server where the AyaNova database resides and where the Firebird server is
