The ASE Web Services Engine will start or stop if the following conditions are met:
The ase_service_name provided is located on an LDAP server pointed to by the libtcl.cfg file or in the interfaces file for Adaptive Server Enterprise.
ASE Web Services first searches for an entry containing the
value of ase_service_name on
an LDAP server pointed to by the libtcl.cfg file. ASE
Web Services locates the libtcl.cfg file using
the com.sybase.ase.ws.libtcl entry
in the ws.properties file. If no entry is found
on an LDAP server, ASE Web Services looks for an entry in the interfaces file
for Adaptive Server Enterprise.
On Windows systems, the interfaces file
is named sql.ini.
ASE Web Services locates the interfaces file
using the com.sybase.ase.ws.interfaces entry
in the ws.properties file.
A successful login can be made using the ase_username and ase_password provided.
The password for an Adaptive Server Enterprise user cannot
be set to a null string. The sa login allows
null-string passwords by default. Sybase does not recommend using
null passwords.
The login to Adaptive Server Enterprise has sa role privileges.
The following stored procedure command has been executed in isql for your Adaptive Server Enterprise:
sp_configure ‘enable webservices’, 1
