Question related to a free trial, or to a production (customer) instance?

Free trial

did you create a database (001) in Adabas Manager? Default database is 12, I think.

I also had this error. I could not locate the script ..\adainfo.sh to see if I perhaps could edit it as I think the issue is the DB= parameter value.
its current value is 001. If you are running the scripts as stated in the official document for NaturalOne CE then you are attempting to start DB=012. At least this is how I see it.
As it turns out for me, DB=012 did indeed start successfully as I found out when I started up the adabas manager container and created a REPORT.
Perhaps someone in authority should update that adainfo.sh script in the official distributions? or provide another explanation for the failures.

If you have followed the docs on https://containers.softwareag.com/products/adabas-ce to start your container like that:

docker run -d -p 60001:60001 -e ACCEPT_EULA=Y -e ADABAS_DBID=12 -e ADABAS_DB_CREATION=demodb --name adabas-db softwareagcr.azurecr.io/adabas-ce:7.3.0

then you are using the DBID 12.

adainfo.sh expects to have the environment variable ADADBID to be set. Try it like that:

docker exec -it -e ADADBID=12 adabas-db adainfo.sh
