Re: Error restarting server
Ken,
This sounds strange, but I have had to logout and re-login as Informix to
re-start the DB engine sometimes!
I had a similar problem with -25580 when I was installing OWS. But, since
your DB was running before, I assume that you just have a leftover
memory/process problem.
Of course, restarting the Server (the Unix one) is the "cleanest" way to
reset everything...
