what is the path to the informix 9.3 engine
Joseph Dixon asked what path to use for SQLEXEC for old i4gl and isql with an IDS 9.3 engine. John Carlson suggested the bin directory and John Fahey said lib/sqlrm on 9.21. Jonathan Leffler said there is none: sqlrm is not shipped with IDS 9.x, so he recommended upgrading to newer i4gl and isql (7.32).

I am trying to set the environment variable for SQLEXEC for an old informix program "i4gl" and "isql". The SQLEXEC environment variable needs to know the path name of the informix 9.3 engine

There isn't one. You need to upgrade to new i4gl and isql (7.32 recommended). If you had a 7.x server, there would have been a relay module, sqlrm, which you could have used. That is not distributed with IDS 9.x. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@us.ibm.com) STSM, Informix Database Engineering, IBM Data Management 4100 Bohannon Drive, Menlo Park, CA 94025 Tel: +1 650-926-6921 Tie-Line: 630-6921 "I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it!" |---------+----------------------------> | | "JOSEPH DIXON" | | | <jdixon@servnu.co| | | m> | | | Sent by: | | | forum.subscriber@| | | iiug.org | | | | | | | | | 06/17/2003 07:58 | | | AM | | | | |---------+----------------------------> >------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------| | | | To: ids@iiug.org | | cc: | | Subject: what is the path to the informix 9.3 engine [1374] | | | >------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------| I am trying to set the environment variable for SQLEXEC for an old informix program "i4gl" and "isql".
