Hi, for a first (quick) analysis, the interesting part of the af-file is the function call stack trace of the thread that reported the problem. Usually this is at the beginning of the af-file, right after a repetition of the af-message as seen in the online.log file. Depending on configuration the af-file can be rather large. To be sure, keep it for future reference, as IBM Informix Tech Support will ask you for it when you open a call/case (PMR) for this problem. But to send in an e-mail to this list, the above described stack trace as an excerpt from the file, put as plain text into the e-mail (cut & paste) would be good enough to start with.

It looks like you might have your NETTYPE parameters in the wrong order in your onconfig file.
