Informix Error -810

Reasons / Common Causes

-810 fires when a SQL command file can't be saved — per the official guidance, either the account lacks OS-level write permission in the current directory, or the disk is full.

1. No write permission in the current directory, per the official guidance.
2. A full disk, per the official guidance.

Solutions / Resolution

1. Check operating-system permission to write in the current directory, per the official guidance:

   ls -ld .
   

2. Check that the disk isn't full, per the official guidance:

   df -h .
   

Examples

Checking permission and disk space

$ ls -ld .
drwxr-xr-x  ... someuser someuser  ...  .
$ df -h .
