Was it working before the upgrade? Is this a new OS installation? I wonder if there is a required OS package that is missing. I'm not sure why you wouldn't even see an error message.

You could run bash -x dbsvc to see if you can discover the reason for the failure. The -x flag tells the shell to print out debugging information.

If there's too much output from bash -x you can use the script command to put all terminal output into a file called typescript:

# script
# bash -x dbsvc
# exit
# vi typescript

No, it was not working before installing the ebf (it's why I did install the ebf, was on 4122 before)

bash -x dbsvc
