But, a have the following problems: My environment variables: INFORMIXDIR=/opt/informix INFORMIXSERVER=demo_on The oninit command execute this error. [informix@cminfo informix]$ oninit -i This action will initialize Informix Dynamic Server; any existing Informix Dynamic Server databases will NOT be accessible - Do you wish to continue (y/n)? y 20:16:45 shmget: [38]: key 52564801: operating system error 20:16:45 mt_shm_init: can't create resident segment oninit: Fatal error in shared memory creation When I try to connect in demo_on DATABASE with dbaccess the following error occurs. 25588: The appl process cannot connect to Dynamic server demo_on.No such file or directory Have anybody the solution of this problem ?

Either your kernel has configuration problems (what are you using?), or you should try setting the shared memory non-resident. Have you set up sqlhosts correctly? /etc/services? $ONCONFIG? And you do realize that you only ever use 'oninit -i' the first time you bring up a database system; thereafter, you use just 'oninit' unless you want to destroy your databases. Finally, I usually use onmonitor to bring up a system for the first time; it allows me to (and forces me to) check the settings in $ONCONFIG. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.95 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
