Have you exported the relevant Informix environment variables? * INFORMIXTERM=terminfo * TERMINFO=/usr/lib/terminfo We have placed these into /etc/environment so all users can use TERMINFO on our AIX 4.2.1 and AIX 4.3.3 systems. -----Original Message----- From: Thanh [mailto:tqma@my-deja.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 20, 2000 19:21 To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: AIX-4.3.2 / IDS-9.20 / dbaccess / TERMINFO IDS-9.20 release note says that TERMINFO is supported. However, dbaccess fails to locate its TERM (vt100 or xterm). The only way I can get it to work is to define TERMCAP to be Informix's termcap. Has anyone seen this problem ? (I surely defined TERMINFO and TERM properly as ... vi and other curses-based program worked fine) Thanks, Thanh Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
