Problems installing Informix csdk on linux 11.04 64 bit
Hello, Our configuration is HP 64-bit Ubuntu Linux 11.04, 5.3.5-1ubuntu7.2 I am trying to install the Informix CSDK to connect to our Informix database but am having problems. I downloaded CSDK 3.50.FC4,5DE, untarred in the informix directory. When I run the install script ./ installclientsdk the screen refreshes, there are about 6 blanks lines then I get this message initializing InstallShield Wizard..... Extracting Bundled JRE Then I get the OS prompt. I get the same results when trying to only install the connector. I only want to be able to connect to our Informix 11.x DB. Does anyone know if this is indeed the correct Informix client sdk to use for Ubuntu 64-bit Linux 11.04? Has anyone else run into this problem and/or know how to resolve? Thanks in advance. Joe
Try: installclientsdk -i console Art Art S.

Art. Thanks for the suggestion. I tried -console & -legacy both the the same results.

CSDK 3.50.FC4 is not certified for Ubuntu 10.04. Please try version 3.70.FC3 available at http://www14.software.ibm.com/webapp/download/search.jsp?rs=ifxdl . See CSDK System Requirements at https://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=630&uid=swg27016673 .

Hi Andreas, Version 3.70.FC3 worked for me with this configuration. Thanks for the suggestion!
