After changing the hostname of Windows, Informix fails to work. I also try to change the old hostname to new hostname under the registry of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Informix\\OnLine\\"IDS_server_name" Any other steps are required ?

You may have to change stuff in the registry (sqlhosts stuff) using setnet32 an error message why it does not want to start is helpfull; goto the cmd line (in informix program group there should be a cmd icon which sets your env correct.) then cd %INFORMIXDIR%\\etc write %ONCONFIG% search for MSGPATH which should point to a file. in there there should be a message why it does not want to start.
