I installed informix se v7.24.uc5 , informix sql 7.20.ud7 and informix 4gl 7.20.ud7 on redhat 5.2 Linux and everything goes well. I decide to install redhat 6.2 and now I receive the following message: Termcap entry too long, bad termcap entry, the type of your terminal is unknown to the system. I know that it's necessary to set term and termcap, but could anyone help me about this? Thanks Jorge
