{ DatabaseName | DBN }={ AUTO | REQUIRED | database-name }

HTTP, HTTPS

AUTO

If this protocol option is set to REQUIRED, the URL must specify a database name.

If this protocol option is set to AUTO, the URL may specify a database name, but does not need to do so. If the URL contains no database name, the default database on the server is used to process web requests. Since the database server must determine whether the URL contains a database name when set to AUTO, you should avoid ambiguity in your web site design.

If this protocol option is set to the name of a database, that database is used to process all web requests. The URL must not contain a database name.

The following command starts two databases, but permits only one of them to be accessed via HTTP.

dbsrv16 -xs http(DBN=web) "%SQLANY16%\demo.db" web.db

The following command starts two HTTP web services - one for your-first-database.db and one for your-second-database.db:

dbsrv16 -xs http(PORT=80;DBN=your-first-database),http(PORT=8800;DBN=your-second-database) your-first-database.db your-second-database.db
