After installing the engine you have to initialise chunks you are going to use. At least you have to initialize the primary chunk. Log in as user "informix", create file (if you are going to use a cooked file as primary chunk) with -rw-rw---- mode and run tbmonitor->parameters->initialize. The words above accord to the OnLine version < 6.0. [skipped...] Bye. --------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew Yu.
