Opens the Server Startup Options dialog or displays the Server Messages window on Linux (use the X window server).
{ dbsrv10 | dbeng10 } -ux
Linux with X window server support
The -ux option allows you to do two things when starting the database server: use the Server Startup Options dialog to specify server options when starting the database server and display the Server Messages window once the server has started.
When the -ux option is the only option specified on the server command line, the Server Startup Options dialog appears where you can enter options for starting the database server.
The server must be able to find a usable display when -ux is specified. If it cannot find one, for example because the DISPLAY environment variable isn't set or because X window server isn't running, then the database server fails to start. If you want the database server to start, even if it cannot find a usable display, use the -ui option instead of -ux.
If you specify other server options in addition to -ux, then the Server Messages window appears once the database server is started. You should only specify one of -uc, -ui, or -ux.
For more information about starting the database server as a daemon, see -ud server option.
The following command displays the Server Startup Options dialog where you can enter options for starting the database server:
dbeng10 -ux
The following command starts the database server and displays the Server Messages window:
dbeng10 -ux sample.db
