Re: c4gl Compile Time Connection Error
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS is not listed as a known environment variable in the 4GL
manual: try creating the standard file "/opt/informix/etc/sqlhosts". Also,
try setting ONCONFIG as well TBCONFIG. DBSERVERNAME is generally not a
recognised environment variable. You shouldn't need "sqlexecd" unless you
are running Standard Engine.
Let me know how you get on!
