Connecting to a Database Server

You must connect WebSpeed AppBuilder to a database server before you can begin to develop Web objects. The database must be either the same database that is connected to the WebSpeed Broker, or it must have the same schema.

If the database server is running, do the following:

  1. From the AppBuilder main window, choose Tools Database Connections.
  2. Choose the Connect command button.
  3. Choose Options.
  4. Select the Multiple Users check box.
  5. Enter the pathname of the database in the Physical Name text field.
  6. Choose the OK command button.

For more detailed information about starting database servers, see the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for Windows or the Progress Installation and Configuration Guide Version 9 for UNIX. Also, Getting Started with WebSpeed contains a detailed example of starting a database server for the sample Sports2000 database.
