Re: Informix Network Connection

With much thanks to all who contributed, I've solved it. I was running the Slackware distribution version of Apache (1.x.x) and had upgraded the Slackware distribution of PHP to 4.3.4. I finally gave up and removed both the Apache and PHP packages and configured httpd-2.0.48 and PHP 4.3.4 like this: HTTPD: configure --enable-so --enable-ssl --enable-modules=most PHP: configure --with-tidy --with-phplib --with-mysql=/usr --with-informix --with-java --with-java --with-openssl --with-zend --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs I also followed Johnathan Leffler's guideline for onconfig, sqlhosts, and /etc/services and wound up with this in onconfig: DBSERVERNAME fubar_a # Name of default database server DBSERVERALIASES fubar_shm # Name of network database server DBSERVERALIASES fubar_str # Name of network database server DBSERVERALIASES fubar_anet # Name of network database server with this in sqlhosts: fubar_a onsoctcp fubar fubar_a fubar_shm olipcshm fubar fubar_shm fubar_str olipcstr fubar fubar_str fubar_anet onsoctcp fubar fubar_anet and with this in /etc/services # IBM Informix Software fubar_a 1625/tcp # IBM Informix 7.x engine shared fubar_anet 1725/tcp # IBM Informix 7.x engine network Yes, I know that fubar_a and fubar_anet are only network connections -- but, the blasted thing works with both Apache and command line PHP, so I don't give a hoot! All's well that ends. Thanks again to all.
