RE: IDS10 on Vista
Posted in 2007
Thanks, Guy.I checked my firewall again and it has all those checked (except ftp which is not installed).So there is some other port that I need to open to make dbaccess work with the firewall turned on.Is there any way to find out what what port dbaccess is looking at?Date: Fri, 9 Mar 2007 11:22:52 -0800From: gbowerman@yahoo.comSubject: Re: IDS10 on VistaTo: garage_dba@hotmail.com; informix-list@iiug.org
It is working fine on a Vista lab machine here. I didn't set up the Firewall myself but the default Windows firewall has the following exceptions:Core NetworkingFile and Printer SharingFile Transfer ProgramNetwork DiscoveryRemote AssistanceRemote DesktopUnder Advanced, Local Area Connection is checked.There do not appear to be any specific settings/exceptions for Informix programs.Guy----- Original Message ----From: Bill64bits <garage_dba@hotmail.com>To: Guy . <gbowerman@yahoo.com>; informix-list@iiug.orgSent: Tuesday, March 6, 2007 7:41:19 PMSubject: Re: IDS10 on Vista
I just noticed the firewall was off,
though I could have sworn I turned it back on.
I turned if on.
I tried dbaccess - no go.
Turned the firewall back off - dbaccess
works again.
I have dbaccess as an exception, so I
don't know what is stopping it from running.

Then I noticed that I had put 192.168.0.1 in the hostname in setnet32 when I
was getting desperate the other dayah, that'd do it.If you do
notice any problems with IDS on Vista, whether they be show-stoppers or minor
cosmetic issues please let me know, I'd like to compile a list of any
incompatibilities and start investigating.ThanksGuy

Thanks, Guy.I did as you said, but IDS would
not start.I got 09:18:36 listener-thread: err =
-25573: oserr = 0: errstr = : Network driver cannot accept a connection on the
port.over and over and ....I uninstalled client sdk 3.0 and
reinstalled into the C:\\program files\\IBM\\Informix(without the default Client SDK 3.0 on the end of the path that the installer wanted).I had
trouble with that on win2k while testing the ifx .net provider.I think the
informixdir gets screwed if you let it install someplace else.The
installer did not copy data1.cab to the work directory from the zip and
aborted.After I manually copied the .cab to the work directory it had
chosen, the install worked ok.Then, I put back the protocol to onsoctcp
but still no-go.Then I noticed that I had put 192.168.0.1 in the hostname
in setnet32 when I was getting desperate the other day.I put it back to
the my computer name (which resolves to fe80::911c:68b3:6cfb:7146%8) and
IDS started.Then dbaccess worked. It even works with the firewall
on.
