Hi Art

Had the same problem until I tried to run initdb script as hpsmdb user.
My problem was ownership and permissions on /var/opt/hpsmdb directory. Changed it to hpsmdb as owner and rwx perms for hpsmdb.
Now I can get on with the configuration.
Cheers Per

YES, it worked!

except I dont have hpsmdb user, so I created it and changed owner of /var/opt/hpsmdb from root to hpsmdb user.

Thanks!
