Run NXSERVER using a settings file

[jdazevedo]

I'm trying to run the Nexusdb using a settings file. The settings file is in the same directory NEXUSDB.EXE. I made dozens of attempts and no work. The following are some attempts:
The following command always loads default settings:
NXSERVER.EXE / RESET / IMPORTSETTINGS: "NXSERVER.INI"
---
The following command always gives an error and not run the nxserver:
NXSERVER.EXE / RESET / CONFIG: "NXSERVER.INI"
---
In the following command I rename NXSERVER.INI to NXSERVER.INIT and also only loads the default settings:
NXSERVER.EXE / RESET
---
In the following command I rename NXSERVER.INI to NXSERVER.NXDBWORKSETTINGS and also only loads default settings:
NXSERVER.EXE
---
I also tried the following command, and did not work:
NXSERVER.EXE / IMPORTSETTINGS: "NXSERVER.NXDBWORKSETTINGS"
------
I also tried the following command without success:
NXSERVER.EXE / RESET / IMPORTSETTINGS: "NXSERVER.NXDBWORKSETTINGS"
------
Is it possible to run the nxserver using a settings file? Has anyone succeeded?

Can anyone help me?

There MUST be a file in the same directory as nxServer.exe with a name
nxServer.init

to load :

nxServer /interactive /reset

NOTES:

1) there is NO space between the slash and 'reset'

2) the init file is not loaded if the server is started as a service !

3) there is no commandlineswitch importsettings

Hi,
would you also happen to know if there are some documentation and
examples about this topic?
(I have tried with little luck)
Best regards Christian

grep -ird 'reset *.pas

for mantis use the search on

http://www.nexusdb.com/mantis/view_all_bug_page.php

the problem is, that mantis is currently not updated (up to the daily
builds) so trouble shooting is becoming very difficult now ....
