Hiya. I got my C-Isam working great under RH8, but now I am trialling RH9 it doesn't seem to want to play with me any more. Now I have installed it, after each reboot I get: Incorrectly built binary which acceses errno, h_errno or _res directly. Needs to be rebuilt. I suspect that this has something to do with RH deciding to update things in their compiler or kernel something. I do understand that this is an ancient release. The company I am working for is thinking about an upgrade, but is seriously considering moving to a different sort of DB server. That lack of decision means that I am stuck with trying to get this working. Just for the record, I am running this on a multi-processor xeon based platform. I have seen info that suggests this is a known problem(at least it is for more recent versions), but I haven't seen one that talks about a solution or a workaround. Any assistance would be greatly apprectiated. Tah! Googleboy.

Contact IBM/Informix Tech Support and see whether there is anything more recent available that works on RH9. >>I got my C-Isam working great under RH8, but now I am trialling RH9 >>it doesn't seem to want to play with me any more. >> >>Now I have installed it, after each reboot I get: >> >>Incorrectly built binary which acceses errno, h_errno or _res >>directly.
