I have installed informix 7.12 TC3 on a windows NT3.51 platform. When I try to start up online, I get the following message after a few minutes: "The database server timed out before changing the mode. Try changing the mode again". I also have the alert: "Logical logs are full". When I try to back-up the logical logs from the Backup & Restore window, the backup process never terminates. I set the backup device to 'none' for the logical logs, and rebooted. I still get the same message when I try to start up online. This problem started only after the 'logical logs are full' alert.
