[How To] Fix “Error Establishing A Database Connection” During Absinthe Jailbreak

Chronic-Dev Team has finally released the GreenPois0n Absinthe v0.1.2.-1 untethered jailbreak for iPhone 4S and iPad 2 running iOS 5.0/5.0.1 firmwares. Even though the jailbreak tool is pretty simple to use but it appears that some people are getting an “Error Establishing a Database Connection” message when they launch Absinthe app during the jailbreak process. Luckily, theres an easy fix for that.
Here’s what you need to do:
Step 1:
Turn off any pass codes on your iPhone 4S or iPad 2 devices before running the jailbreak tool on your Mac or PC.
Step 2:
When you get the above mentioned error while attempting to run Absinthe, go to:
Settings > General > VPN > Turn ON.
** You must remove every other VPN configuration you might have on your device except “jailbreak” before turning the switch to ON. This is important!
Step 3:
You will get an error. Simply wait for about 3–5 seconds and your device will reboot automatically (if it doesn’t, hold down power and home buttons for a few seconds for a manual reboot).
Step 4:
On reboot, the Absinthe app will have turned into a Cydia icon.
Enjoy!

Pangu shows off first beta of iOS 10 jailbreak.
sweet! works for me!
This does work!
Does NOT work for me. it does not auto reboot, and when i force reboot absinthe is still cydia.
rather absinthe is not cydia
do you have any other VPN configuration saved? Delete it and re-try !
awesome! it worked like a charm for me. the only issue i had is the my “calendar” app became semi-transparent now. But upon launching Cydia (and it rebooting) it returned to its normal self
Settings > General > VPN > Turn ONand then what? do you have to put any cofig settings in there, it has to be saved..
Step 1 mentions to disable any passcodes on your ios device. What if the passcode is enforced by exchange mail profile policy? In that case i can’t disable it..unless i delete the exchange profile entirely? Is this to say i can’t use the jailbreak without doing that? Has anyone out there been successful with jailbreak on phone that has a passcode enabled ?
White screen, VPN jailbreak is there but when turning on after error/manual reboot nothing changed.
This did not work for me.
My 4s did not auto restart, and after I hard reset the unit, the absinthe icon was still there, no cydia icon.
It works on Ipad2, Iphone 4s no-go, maybe because my ios version is 9a406?
yahoooo….worked like a charm….thank you soooo much!!!
very thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu =D
Both 4S and iPad done 🙂
Thank you! Worked as described!
worked for me on my 4S but not on my iPad 2..any ideas?
Worked like a charm
worked for me! thanks
I clicked the absinthe app and it opened their website… where am i to go from here?
same thing happened to me…tried a reboot after opening the app and going to their website but I still have the Absinthe app rather than Cydia
Hell Yeah!! Thanks for the fix!!
My 4S on 5.0.1 get giving me the VPN error and NOT rebooting or turning Absinthe into Cydia; I then turned the passcode off, kept trying, ran Absinthe on the Mac two or three more times, and it finally redid the entire jailbreak from the Mac’s end; it finally just worked! 🙂
Cliffs: if you keep getting the VPN error and not getting Cydia, rerun the jailbreak from your Mac, then retry the steps. Repeat until it works?
*My iPhone 4S on 5.0.1 KEPT giving me
This fixed my problem as well..thanks for the advice!
is anyone’s music app working funny after the jailbreak? my music’s there, it says its playing, but nothing’s moving and no sound =(
Music is not playin, no IPhone or Ipad2′ what we do now?
Mine is doing the same thing
Let me know if you find a fix. ru****@********il.com
Well this working on my iPad but not my iPhone. But on the iPad every package I select says Cannot Locate Package. Is this due to the overload of folks jailbreaking?
well, i decided to delete the absinthe app because it wouldnt turn into cydia, and now the jailbreak wont work again from mac end, because it keeps saying its already done? WTF? restore?
I had that same problem until I rebooted the phone and ran it again.
Have you managed to fix it yet Tj? I’m having the same problem. Can’t restart the jailbreak as it states it’s already done, but I deleted the absinthe icon and can’t get it to come back…
Did you try re-jailbreaking with the updated version of Absinthe?
I have the same issue man, you get it figured out?
So, Itunes Match does not work. Music is all craped totally. However, thank you very much, good job.

Usman, a lot of your articles lack proper grammar. Is it that difficult to proofread before posting?
Try changing to a different USB Port and run the Absinthe on the MAC side again.
it works on 4s ios 5.1 ??
