Re: help! Oninit problem...

You are absolutely sure that there isn't an existing OnLine instance running at this point in time ? How about the shared memopry allocation, Informix may not have freed the necessary segments when it was shut down ?? Try looking at the shared memory segments (ipcs) and see if any of them are owned by Informix. I guess you are trying to run it as Informix with all the necessary environemnts set ?? (informixdir, path, informixserver, onconfig etc... ) Can you send me a copy of the online.log file immediately from the point of initialisation please ??
