I have installed Sybase(Developer's Edition for ASE 16.0) on a linux machine. I have executed the setup.bin file, and installed it using GUI. After this, I tried connecting to the localhost server, by running the dbisql executable in the DBISQL-16_0/bin folder of the base-installation-folder but couldn't connect to the 'localhost:5000' server, using the username/password of the server. I am not sure if the server is tarted. Do I need to run anything to start the server, or perform any other actions before trying to connect using this client?

Any help regarding this is highly appreciated.
