SAPDB / MaxDB

Using MaxDB v7.6 or later

As with MaxDB v7.6, Schemas were introduced into MaxDB. This has a significant change to the database and has a big effect on the structure of the system tables and the data displayed by AQT. Consequently, for MaxDB, AQT has two config files (config files are used for displaying the information in the Database Explorer)

• maxdb.cfg for SAPDB or for MaxDB v7.5 or earlier
• maxdb_v7.cfg for MaxDB v7.6 or later

AQT should detect the version of MaxDB you are using and automatically use the correct cfg file. However if this is not working, you can change the cfg file manually. You do this as follows:

• go to Options > Config Files
• find the entry for MaxDB
• change the cfg file name from maxdb to maxdb_v7

Message "Invalid string of buffer length"

You can get this message while displaying the information on a table. This occurs when you do not have authorization to display the table.
