Hi all, I have the above error when I am trying to initialize my db server using oninit. The database server starts well before I install the 4GL RDS I check the INFORMIXDIR and DBLANG environt variables. I thought they are well tuned. The problem triggered by the installation of the 4GL. OS : Sco Openserver 5.05 IDS : 7.3 Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance Yener KILIC +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Computer Engineering Department, 99'Graduates | | Ege University IZMIR | | E-mail: yener@bornova.ege.edu.tr | | URL: http://bornova.ege.edu.tr/~yener | | What ever you wish for, You're wished all that. | +-----------------------------------------------------------+

Although Informix says it does not depend on the order, that is not true. You should install in ascending order of the versions, especially IDS should be installed after 4GL or ESQL. If you reinstall IDS the error will disappear.
