Although I have not seen this exact error, I do know the -P startup
parameter is for the password. Without seeing your exact setup/startup
files, it would be kinda hard to debug.
I would make one suggestion, however. Use Progress Explorer for starting
and stopping the 5.x databases. It is more functional, stable and user
friendly than ProControl.

Subject: [Vantage] -P parameter in database start
I am setting up a test platform on a new server to convert from 4.0 to 5.x.
I restored our nightly backup of the Vantage database to the
Epicor\Vantage\db folder on the new server. When I try to start the
database (in ProControl) I get an Application Event message telling me the
-P parameter is missing. I have no such parameter for any of the other
databases on our live server. So, I'm curious where this -P is supposed to
go and what it is for. I've checked back through old group messages and can
find no reference to -P. Any other words of wisdom for setitng up a test
server would be welcomed too.
Thanks,
