Re: Redhat 9 install gone bad!

Hi David ! If you copy the old onconfig to /opt/informix/etc/, this will result in problems, if you have edited the file with vim, joe or other editor. Take the original onconfig and only use onmonitor to change parameters. There are 2 parsers in oninit, one dislikes unicode and lets oninit crash with a shared memory error (i can reproduce this always). The other parser dislikes also unicode, but informix crashed later, at the first network connect. onconfig then is reparsed and crashes without error. You can remove shared mem with ipcrm .... regards, Guido Stepken David Williams wrote: > "Cindy Lichtenauer" <clichtenauer@csatech.net> wrote in message > news:36d065cf.0308151234.2dd6c1e0@posting.google.com... > >>I upgraded my system from Redhat 8 to 9 and have had nothing but >>headaches. >> >>I had my Informix products (IDS 9.40.UC2, 4gl 7.32 and ISQL 7.32) up >>and running at one point.
