Re: memory fault with su - informix

Nothing obvious springs to mind, but I don't know HP. I'd remove informix's .profile I suspect the problem will go away, and then start with a new .profile and slow add back the parts you need until it errors One thing that springs to mind from a similar Sun problem, ie very odd core dumps, is the /etc/groups file correct. Odd I know, but I had onmonitor (no other Informix util) core dumping due a corruption in /etc/groups.

Any help is greatly appreciated. I have a critical user account ( my informix dba account) that gives me a memory fault when I try su - informix (from root) if I just run, su informix I get in. ?!? I can use su - with other users with no problem. For anyone who may be familiar with IDS 7.x: Although I still have errors bringing up the IDS database engine. When I run oninit, I get the error can not find message file, check INFORMIXDIR and DBLANG INFORMIXDIR is set correctly. What is DBLANG? can not even find the definition of the variable in my Informix docs. Any ideas on how to fix and if the two problems are related?
