Admin Console won't start

[Keith Hulse]

Hi, I am new to Filemaker. I have just installed Server Advanced 9.1 R2 for Mac OS X and applied the 9.0.3.326 update. When I start launch the Admin Console I get the following: "The Database Server is not available. To edit server deployment, please start the Database Server first." When I press restart I get the following: Unable to start the database server. Please contact your system administrator for assistance."

I am running fully updated Leopard on a Macbook. I have seen this error elsewhere on the forum but nothing seems to apply. Can anyone help?

Many thanks,

Keith Hulse

Try using the terminal to start the FMS daemon before attempting to run the console.
