Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

Have you verified the integrity of the dbexport? I have had the
same problem (10.01/7.13) but have had invalid data in a table.
I haven't had the time to go back and try the onload after cleaning
up the data, but that is what informix wants me to try. As for
the invalid data, I had fourty rows in a table with a value
of '++.0' in a float column.
Just a thought.
