Or did it. The line returned said:'pWhat does that mean? And alsoView the database with a browser: http://localhost:5001I tried the link. Zilch. I admit I dont know much about ports orprotocols…Anyone any ideas?ThanksRamtin
Hello,
The command “q trade.q -p 5001” should be run from the linux shell
command line & not within the q console.
To assign a port within the console use the \p command i.e. \p 5001
The error 'p means the q interpreter doesn’t recognise -p.
Regards,
Fintan.
