Re: Urgent: IRIX ESQL/C <--> Linux SE

I'm running bash on both IRIX and Linux. Anyway, the -957 problem seems to have gone, since I'm now getting most frequently the following one: database.majorErrorCode = -461 ---> Cannot open file 'sql.iem'. database.minorErrorCode = 134 ---> Cannot open file 'isam.iem'. I think I will need some sort of reinstallation! However any suggestion is always well accepted!
