The file citoxmsg.pam is missing from the directory $INFORMIXDIR/msg. If this error occurs, please note all circumstances and contact Technical Support at tsmail@us.ibm.com. Typically it means one of the following: - There's something wrong with your installation (there was a version a few years ago that put the citoxmsg.pam file in the wrong subdir). - The INFORMIXDIR environment variable is unset or set incorrectly. (Often happens in cron scripts.) - You are trying to run an esql/c program on a machine that has neither iConnect nor iCSDK installed. If you've checked all that out, then call tech support as suggested in the error message text. Art S. Kagel
