missing install instructions/pieces
Posted in 2004
I downloaded the Linux package, IIUG-IDS-9-4-UC2-linux.zip to install on Fedora core. I had no trouble setting the environment, or using cpio or installing the server, using installserver or running the RUN_AS_ROOT.server piece. I received no errors and was returned to the prompt. What I'm missing is some kind of config setup for the server itself. Reading the Unix/Linux install guide refers to the "IBM Informix Bundle Installer", I did not see that or the mentioned options, however the install guide speaks also of choosing to install the demo database, I didn't get that option with using the installserver binary. I also didn't see anything about the option of installing the "IBM Informix Server Administrator". I've got copies of the Install guide for Linux/Unix, install for Unix and Informix IDS Admin Guide. I would expect to find a binary that would give me options of installing different pieces, demo, ISA and others but have not found it. In the Guide for Linux, it refers to the ISA in $INFORMIXDIR/ISA/bin/isactl, I do not have the ISA directory structure. 1. Is there a fuller 9.4 package for Linux versus what's on the IIUG website? 2. Am I missing pieces I need to download? 3. Is there a better verbose installation document? Thanks, Paul
