Informix Universal Server Initialization error

Hi all, I have just installed IUS 9 on Solaris 2.7 and copied onconfig.std to onconfig.new and modified it In sqlhosts I added "sundpd10 ontlitcp sundpd10 unisrvr" where sundpd10 is dbname and hostname Also added "unisrvr 1526/tcp informix" in /etc/services My .profile is: INFORMIXDIR=/informixexport INFORMIXDIR INFORMIXSERVER=sundpd10export INFORMIXSERVER ONCONFIG=onconfig.newexport ONCONFIG INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=/informix/etc/sqlhostsexport INFORMIXSQLHOSTS PATH=$INFORMIXDIR/bin:$PATHexport PATH When I run oninit or oninit -i, I get: "oninit: Cannot open chunk '/informix/etc/rootdb'. errno = 2 oninit: Fatal error in shared memory initialization" Is there something I am missing? Maybe I should increase semaphores+shared memory in /etc/system? current values are: (RAM is 64M) set shmsys: shminfo_shmmax = 209715200 set shmsys: shminfo_shmseg = 50 set semsys: seminfo_semmns = 1750 set semsys: seminfo_semmni = 100 set semsys: seminfo_semmns =256 set semsys: seminfo_semmsl =64 set shmsys: shminfo_shmmni =200 set shmsys: shminfo_shmseg =64 Thanks in advance.

Does /informix/etc/rootdb exist with the correct permissions???
