Hi Franck,



You seem to be using a Mac. Can you please check if ~/.local/bin is on your PATH? (Type "echo $PATH" at the command line.)

This is not always done automatically on Mac OSX; in which case, please add



    export PATH="${HOME}/.local/bin:${PATH}"



to your ~/.bash_profile (creating this file if necessary) then



    source ~/.bash_profile



and try running the tests again. The DB test needs to access the command line tools of ASE.



All the best,

Adam
