Has something happened in the UNIX recently to alter group or user numbers for Informix? If you use 'dbaccess' or 'sql' to create a database, is the '.dbs' and it's contents in the group 'informix'? If not, reinstall your Informix products pronto & sort ot the unix group on all databases. Check the UNIX permissions etc. on the '.dbs' directory & it's contents and also on it's parents - I've know odd UNIX permissions higher up causing problems.
