bad passwd ifxjson during IIF.12.10.FC13IE.windows64 installation
gerard kuczynski got an invalid password error for user ifxjson installing Informix 12.10.FC13 on Windows. Andreas Legner said previously existing informix or ifxjson users keep their passwords and the user can be removed before reinstalling. After cleaning the environment the install succeeded, and the poster then installed 14.10 for Genero development. Solved.

Hi, i try to install this version on windows , choose custom installation with instance to be created.. the informix passwd is required : i give it : ok but same question for ifxjson : answer ifxjson => invalid passwd for existing user ifxjson.. i dont find any explanation neither issue. Appreciate your help ------------------------------ gerard kuczynski ------------------------------
Did users informix and/or ifxjson already exist prior to this installation? Maybe even from a previous (failed?) installation attempt? If so, their existing passwords had to be matched ... (I haven't installed on Windows in a while.) Or, in case you're sure that ifxjson user isn't in use for anything, the entire user could be removed prior to a new attempt. By user I mean local user for a local install, domain user for a domain install. You decide which one it is by installing as either local or domain admin.

J'ai effectivement fait plusieurs essais d'installation et entre autres j'ai téléchargé un zip informix 12.10 à partir de IBM et il y avait un virus.. J'ai pu supprimer ce virus. J'avais cherché à supprimer ce user sans le trouver.. J'ai fait ce que vous m'avez indiqué..et c'est OK maintenant. Grand merci ------------------------------ gerard kuczynski ------------------------------
My French still good enough to understand it's working now - mon plaisir! :-) But: why not using a more current version (14.10 instead of 12.10)? Andreas ------------------------------ Andreas Legner ------------------------------
