Hi ,
I'm Currently using the ASA 9.0.1.1899 version.
Synchronization process is between ASA to Oracle.

I want to automatically start the mobilink server when the
system is restarted.

You didn't mention the OS and version you are running on.

For win32 platforms, configure ML as a "service". You can use Sybase
Central or the "dbsvc" command-line utility to set this up.

For Unix/Linux/Mac OSX, you would run ML as a "daemon".

In the ASA 9.x online docs see:

MobiLink Administration Guide
- Running MobiLink Outside the Current Session

Hope this helps,

hi,
We are using the Mobilink server with Asa version 9.0.1.1899
and it is connecting with oracle 9i which is running in the
AIX 5.1 ( UNIX ) version. Mobilink Server is running in the
Win2003 OS. I have tried with Sybase central in the ML
server. it is creating the service and status become started
but there is no ML server started ( we are tried with client
sync. it says Unable to connect with Mobilink server).
What shall we do for this. will this ML service will be
displayed in the Windows service or not. we are not able to
see this service in that list.

expecting the solution at the earliest.
with regds,
Maggie

Yes, the ML server should be listed in the Services dialog. You might
need to refresh the display (F5??) if you had it open when the service
was created.

Are you running SC on the same machine where you are trying to install
the service? SC can only install a service on the machine that it is
running on.

You might consider using the dbsvc command line utility to create the
service. I expect it would give better feedback in the event of an
error. In the ASA 9.x online docs, see:

ASA Database Administration Guide
Database Administration Utilities
The Service Creation utility
- Managing services using the dbsvc command-line utility

we use this following command line to create service

"C:\Program Files\Sybase\SQL Anywhere 9\win32\dbsvc.exe" -i -as -t
MobiLink -s automatic -w MYSERVICE "C:\Program Files\Sybase\SQL Anywhere
9\win32\dbmlsrv9.exe" -c "DSN=MYDSN;UID=dba;PWD=sql" -fr -ot
C:\MobilinkLog\mymobilink.log -os 20M -v+ -x tcpip{port=2439} -zu+

After starting the service you can see if the dbmlsrv9.exe is running in the
Task manager also you can check the Mobilink Log for any additional
information

Thanks John and Greg for the support

The service is working fine . But the first time we create
the service and restart our system , It does not start
automatically , we had to start it manually , But the next
restart onwards it starts the mobilink server automatically
