*SQL* was empty except for

-----------------------------------
sh: cd: : Permission denied
-----------------------------------

-----------------------------------
ls
///1ebffaf5241a44a316171191a4767e18#$ls: cannot open directory .:
Permission denied
vsql --username dbadmin --password xxxxxx
///1ebffaf5241a44a316171191a4767e18#$Welcome to vsql, the Vertica
Analytic Database interactive terminal.

       \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
       \q to quit

dbadmin=>
