Re: Errors connecting to server - SQL -908; ISAM 115

I don't know if this is relevent but when I released Online 5.01 for ICL
machines we noticed a problem with the NET product in 5.00 which was suddenly
fixed in 5.01. The daemon in this case would just hang and was unable to
establish a connection..... This was 3 years ago, so I can't remember the
exact syntax of errors, etc. and I no longer work on it.
Chase up Informix tech support if you have no joy - I suspect it is a known
bug.
