Re: Informix on Linux install

In particular, Informix SE 7.2x has been ported to Linux, and the relevant documents are located at: http://www.informix.com/answers/oldsite/answers/english/se72xux.htm including the Unix Installation guide (found near the bottom). But there's lots of good reading everywhere on that page. Probably you want to do the following while logged in as root: #create the informix user and make a directory to hold the server adduser informix mkdir /usr/local/informix cd /usr/local/informix unzip /your-path-to-zip-file/informix_se___esql_c_bundle_for_linux.zip #go to the newly created directory, remember to export the INFORMIXDIR #environment variable or 'installse' complains, and run the install program cd /usr/local/informix/LINUX_se_bundle724UC5/SE export INFORMIXDIR=/usr/local/informix/LINUX_se_bundle724UC5/SE ./installse This is as far as I've gotten. There's still quite a bit of documentation to read. Hope that's helpful. ---------- In article <35B6CA7D.CF29414@ibm.net>, Kyle Dansie <dansie@ibm.net> wrote: > Pocked around on the web site for 15 minutes, finally found the > Installation guide for unix (4352.pdf).
