Or whatever. Same >error message. No comment on the TS stuff, but I'll take a stab at your problem ;-) -874 is a floating point exception. Now I don't know for sure, but I would sure suspect a compatibility problem between informix and that 64 bit version of Unix you are running. Are you running a 64 bit port of informix, or are you trying to run in some sort of 32 bit compatibility mode? The "unknown error message" part may be due to your using ISQL - the version you have may be old enough that it doesn't have the error message for that particular error code. If you installed ISQL after the server, or other tools, you may have overwritten a newer message file with an older copy.
