    From Rich Ford@21:1/5 to All on Wed Dec 1 14:36:47 2021
    Do I need to have root privs in order to run accessdb?

    accessdb
    Absolute path to 'accessdb' is '/usr/sbin/accessdb', so running it may require superuser privileges (eg. root).

    Thanks,
    Rich

    Hi Rich

    It seems the accessdb you were inadvertently trying to run is a Linux command not related to Ingres.

    https://linuxcommandlibrary.com/man/accessdb

    I have a similar issue with the createdb command in my installation (it finds the Postgres createdb command), indicating my PATH environment variable needs to be tweaked so $II_SYSTEM/ingres/bin and $II_SYSTEM/ingres/utility are searched earlier.
