O/S: HP-UX 10.20 D 9000/829; Informix: OnLine 5.08 Our /usr/informix_508 directory has been wiped off by the system admin = then restored from tape. But after the restore, when I run 'tbstat -' = as 'informix', I am getting following error: /usr/informix_508/bin/tbstat: Setuid execution not allowed RSAM Version 5.08.UC1 -- On-Line -- Up 01:57:21 -- 816 Kbytes When I run 'tbstat -' under my own login id, I am getting following = messages: /usr/informix_508/bin/tbstat: Setuid execution not allowed tbstat: shared memory not initialized Under these circumstances, the INFORMIXDIR, PATH, TBCONFIG are exactly = the same. Why on one session it said online, but other session, it said = 'shared mem not initalized'? For the Setuid error, I have compared all files permission with the = 'onlinefiles', and there is no difference. Besides reinstalling all the = Ifmx products, is there any other way to tackle this problem? Thank you.
