Chunk should be explicitly created. Creating a dbspace will not create the chunk file. If your using Unix run the command: touch /local/informix/root chmod 660 /local/informix/root chown informix /local/informix/root chgrp informix /local/informix/root Don -----Original Message----- From: Marco Schmidt [mailto:schmidt@inf.ethz.ch] Sent: Friday, October 13, 2000 9:05 AM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Re: oninit: Cannot open chunk '/usr/online_space001'. errno = 21 Paul Watson <paulw@wfsoftware.com> wrote: : error 21 is a 'file is a directory', is /usr/online_space001 a directory : (bad) or a file (good)? : optimiza@my-deja.com wrote: :> :> I get this error when I run oninit -iv: :> oninit: Cannot open chunk '/usr/online_space001'. errno = 21 :> I have nearly the same error: oninit: Cannot open chunk '/local/informix/root'. errno = 2 This file does not exist, thats right, but I tried to create a new database and it should create the file!
