I'm running a ScoOpen 3.2v5.0.2 and I have installed an Informix Online DS 7.22.UC3. The installation went ok, but when I run the command : oninit -iyI receive the error message : oninit: Fatal error in initializing ASF with 'ASF_INIT_DATA' flags; asfcode = '- 25580'. $ The log (online.log) tells me : 22:27:25 Event alarms enabled. ALARMPROG = '/usr/informix/log_full.sh' 22:27:30 DR: DRAUTO is 0 (Off) 22:27:30 (2) failure, system out of semaphores $ It looks like there is too little semaphore space available. I changed the kernel parms to : SEMMAP: 8192 SEMNI:8192 SEMNU:100 which are the recommended values given from Informix. I also changed SHMMAX to 409600000 and then relinked the kernel. I still get these error messages and I'm running out of ideas. Any help will be highly appreciated!
