Re: < oninit -i >"Fatal error in Shared memory"

And what the online.log file contains ? It could be a number of causes like: 1. An existing shared memory segment with the same keys as Informix ones (check with ipcs -m) 2. Another process is listening to the TCP port you have configured for your informix network listener. Well, it could be other problems too (check your env variables, owner/group and permissions for your root dbspace chunk device).
