Cannot connect linux client to informix server

[wpf...@gmail.com]

I'm trying to get a linux pc to connect to an informix server. The server is running 2.81.uc2 and I've tried the following version of the sdk driver.

Version 3.70.FC8DE - SDK linux driver 64 bit
Version 4.10.FC6DE - SDK linux driver 64 bit
Version 4.10.UC6DE - SDK linux driver 32 bit - after this failed as well I went back to the 64 bit.

All of these produce the same error below from isql -v ecspro

[S1000][unixODBC][Informix][Informix ODBC Driver][Informix]Database not found or no system permission. sqlerrm(systables)
[ISQL]ERROR: Could not SQLConnecct


If I run the dbaccess program and try and connect to the database it looks like it connects, if I use the wrong username or password I get "951: Incorrect password or user ddd is not known on the database server." but the correct login/password nets me a connected at the bottom of the screen.

When I attempt to select a database I get:

329: Database not found or no system permission.
2: No such file or directory

Here are the relevant files, I think.

Most tutorials I've seen on installing informix drivers use just /opt/informix but the installer defaults to /opt/IBM/informix which is what I used.





Any help will be greatly appreciated, not in the here is my first born type of appreciation but appreciated none the less.


If you reply and I don't respond right away it's probably because I've managed to make reality go away for a while by judicial application of force from my skull to the nearest concrete wall.

You are using informix SE so:

before you start the sqlexecd daemon set DBPATH to the path where your database resides. That is where the <database>.dbs directory resides.
example if stores7.dbs is in
/data/
then
export DBPATH=/data/

if you have more directorys like /data/ separate them with a :
ex
export DBPATH=/data/:/data1/


Hope it helps
