Informix Error -9065: Memory allocation has failed.

Reasons / Common Causes

-9065 fires when ACEGO is unable to allocate memory to hold a row, a line, or an SQL data structure — per the official guidance.

1. A near-exhausted memory budget, per the official guidance — the space needed is not, as the message text suggests, directly related to the size of the report specification; the report typically lacks only a few thousand bytes, at most, to run.

Solutions / Resolution

1. Free up system memory before rerunning the report, per the official guidance's implication — the report is close to running successfully.
2. If the problem persists, contact IBM Informix Technical Support.

Diagnostic Checks

1. Check system memory availability, and rerun once more memory is free.

ACEGO failed to allocate memory for a row, line, or SQL structure, typically needing only a small additional amount — free up memory and rerun.
