Path length bug in ibm.csdk.4.50.FC10.WIN x64

Hello I recently started testing the 64 bits driver and I am having some problems. Tried 4.10.FC14 and 4.50.FC10. If I run C:\\Program Files\\IBM Informix Client-SDK\\bin\\ConnectTest.exe and perform some query it works as expected. Now If I copy ConnectTest.exe to some folder with a total path length longer than 62 characters it Fails. If I shorten that path so it is below 62 characters it works. The problem isn't in ConnectTest.exe, I found the issue in my own applications too but it helps testing the issue. So it seems at the driver level. It took a while to find this out because the message I was getting was "The connection has been disabled." / "ERROR [08S01] [Informix][Informix ODBC Driver]Communication link failure." Also the error does not throw when establishing the connection, instead it appears when trying to run a query. Once I moved to a shorter path the problem went away. Can anyone reproduce this? Is there a workaround besides moving to a shorter path? Regards ------------------------------ Fabel Fabel ------------------------------
