Need help troubleshooting install of DServer

Date: Tue, 13 Oct 1998 14:08:15 -0700 Message-ID: <MPG.108d6116c214dd38989680@sanfrancisco01.news.internex.net> X-Newsreader: MicroPlanet Gravity v2.10 I downloaded the DServer under the TNT program and am having trouble getting the database to come "online". My setup is WinNT 4.0WS SP3 - standalone - no domain controller - server and client to execute on the same system. Install used default values or values offered by the install - install routine gave no error messages - but did not update etc/services (please confirm that the entry should be "turbo 1526/tcp"). The NT services are all "Started". In IECC, I can connect (log in as Informix) to the database, but I cannot change the mode to online. I get an Informix Neighborhood warning: "An internal exception occurred on the server. Specific information about the exception is unknown." The D:\\IFMXDATA\\ol_azure\\rootdbs_dat.000 file has a filesize of 0K. If I try to create a new database in IECC, I get an SQL error -908 referencing isqct03a.dll. I am getting no information in any of the log files. Any suggestions on how to proceed? Have I missed a step? Thanks in advance, Gerald FWIW, here is the info that I get out of IECC: DATABASE SERVER HOST INFORMATION REPORT: ---------------------------------------- Host Name: AZURE Processor Type: INTEL PENTIUM Number of configured processors: 1 Number of online processors: 1 OS Version: Windows NT 4.0 (Build 1381 Service Pack 3) Physical Memory: Total 127 MB Free 58 MB Paging Memory: Total 161 MB Free 0 MB All Known Drives: A:\\: REMOVABLE C:\\: FIXED 2254 MB Free 241 MB Total D:\\: FIXED 2001 MB Free 241 MB Total E:\\: CD ROM Environment Variables: CLIENT_LOCALE=EN_US.CP1252COMPUTERNAME=AZURE ComSpec=C:\\WINNT\\system32\\cmd.exe CONTINUOUS_LOG=0 DBLANG=EN_US.CP1252 DB_LOCALE=EN_US.8859-1 INFORMIXDIR=D:\\DevFiles\\Informix INFORMIXSERVER=ol_azure INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=\\\\AZURENUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS=1 ONCONFIG=ONCONFIG.ol_azureOS=Windows_NT Os2LibPath=C:\\WINNT\\system32\\os2\\dll; OSAGENT_PORT=14016 Path=C:\\WINNT\\system32;C:\\WINNT;D:\\DevFiles\\Informix\\bin PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=x86 PROCESSOR_IDENTIFIER=x86 Family 5 Model 4 Stepping 4, GenuineIntel PROCESSOR_LEVEL=5 PROCESSOR_REVISION=0404 REGMACHINE=\\\\AZURE SERVER_LOCALE=EN_US.CP1252 SystemDrive=C: SystemRoot=C:\\WINNT USERPROFILE=C:\\WINNT\\Profiles\\informix windir=C:\\WINNT DATABASE SERVER INFORMATION REPORT: ----------------------------------- #************************************************************************ ** # # INFORMIX SOFTWARE, INC. # # Title: onconfig.std # Description: Informix Dynamic Server Configuration Parameters # #************************************************************************ ** # Root Dbspace Configuration ROOTNAME rootdbs # Root dbspace name ROOTPATH D:\\IFMXDATA\\ol_azure\\rootdbs_dat.000 # Path for devicecontaining root dbspace ROOTOFFSET 0 # Offset of root dbspace into device (Kbytes) ROOTSIZE 30720 # Size of root dbspace (Kbytes) # Disk Mirroring Configuration Parameters MIRROR 0 # Mirroring flag (Yes = 1, No = 0) MIRRORPATH C:\\IFMXDATA\\ol_azure\\rootdbs_mirr.000 # Path for device containing mirrored root MIRROROFFSET 0 # Offset into mirrored device (Kbytes) # Physical Log Configuration PHYSDBS rootdbs # Location (dbspace) of physical log PHYSFILE 2000 # Physical log file size (Kbytes) # Logical Log Configuration LOGFILES 10 # Number of logical log files LOGSIZE 500 # Logical log size (Kbytes)LOG_BACKUP_MODE MANUAL # Logical log backup mode (MANUAL, CONT) # Diagnostics MSGPATH D:\\DevFiles\\Informix\\ol_azure.log # System message log file path CONSOLE D:\\DevFiles\\Informix\\conol_azure.log # System console message path ALARMPROGRAM # Alarm program path # System Diagnostic Script. # SYSALARMPROGRAM - Full path of the system diagnostic script (e.g. # c:\\informix\\etc\\evidence.bat.)
