I hate to ask a question instead of answering one, but can you try calling your program from a simple c program? Is the ESQL/C expecting a library that doesn't exist? Could you try and place some debug messages in the C code generated by the ESQL/C preprocessor? If you find an answer, please post, or if you can, send me a copy of the sample code so I can try it at my own sites.
