Waiting for your respones early. Is this on RedHat by chance? If so find the option to RPM which allows you to relocate the install. That's if you want to relocate... Also, check out the settings for $LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Mine is LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/informix/lib:/usr/informix/lib/esql Make sure $LD_LIBRARY_PATH, $INFORMIXDIR, $INFORMIXSERVER and $ONCONFIG are exported. Make sure they have proper values. If in doubt, post your current values.
