Re: IDS 11.5 on debian 4.0 (amd64) missing libs

I don't know if you fixed it on your system yet, but I had the same problem.
You need to load the 32 bit ncurses.

apt-get install lib32ncurses5

Hi Milan,

A few questions to help further understand the problem.

1. What version (32-bit, 64-bit, Developer Edition, etc.) of IDS 11.5 are you
experiencing this problem with?

2. If you run ldconfig -p, can you find libm.so.6, libc.so.6 and
libncurses.so.5 in the list?

3. If you run the file command on each of those three libraries in /lib, does
their bit type (32- or 64-bit) match the version of IDS you are trying to
install?

If the libraries are all present and their bit types match that of the server
build you are trying to install, you can bypass prerequisite checks by passing
the -disable-checks option to the install script, as in

../installserver -disable-checks

../ids_install -disable-checks

Hope this helps!

Regards,
PJ To

IDS 11.5 on debian 4.0 (amd64) missing libs
Posted by: babel@rr-berlin.de (MILAN BABEL) - Wed, 13 Aug 2008 09:50:28 EDT
Hi,

i have a Problem installing IDS 11.5 on a debian x86_64 System.
I have installed these packages:

- Debian 4.0 (Kernel: 2.6.18, Glibc: 2.3.6) for i686 and x86_64

(EM64T/AMD64). The following packages have to be installed:

libaio1 0.3.106

libgcc 4.1.1

libncurses 5.5

libpam 0.79
But get an error while Checking for Prerequisites ... in Setup that libm.so.6,
libc.so.6 and libncurses.so.5 is missing, they are all in /lib i copied them
to /usr/lib without an effect.

Has anybody an idea?

Restricting particular login for ICONNECT
Posted by: lokeshgupta2@gmail.com (LOKESH GUPTA) - Tue, 05 Aug 2008 07:40:44 EDT
Let me clear my problem by example :

Say loggin "X"

Loggin "X" with password is available to user having the permission OF
UPDATE/DELETE at Informix

Login "X" can log on to Linux server and perform there menu based work that is
controlled by the program.

Iconnect is available at PC with Windows.

Now some smart user can go to the EXCEL and connect to the INFORMIX with
Loggin "X" and can give the query for UPDATE/DELETE.

Now we want to control loggin 'X' to execute any query from EXCEL using
ICONNECT.

Is there any way to control Loggin 'X'.

segmentation fault
Posted by: kirang001@hotmail.com (KIRAN KUMAR) - Thu, 31 Jul 2008 01:30:34 EDT
Hi,

I am facing a strange problem (perhaps strange for me only). I am running IDS
10.UC4 on Suse Linux 9.0 (x86_64). My 4gl version is 7.32.UC3. All my 4gl
problems are successfully getting compiled and executed. The problem is that
at times, the same 4gl program stops executing stating an error message
"Segmentation fault". I have no clues since the same code is getting executed
till that date. The problem is with running the program and not compiling
since it is getting compiled successfully. I tried to copy the 4gl file to
another file name and compile and execute it. It worked!!!!! So, there is a
problem in OS level which is not allowing my 4gl to get executed. Can any one
of you experts, please let me know what tuning has to be done to get my 4gl
getting executed without any interruption as it is scheduled with cron job. If
any more inputs are required from my end, please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

Kiran.

Re: Only have one kio in IDS 11.50 developer editi
Posted by: mars@jsun.com (MARS CHEN) - Mon, 14 Jul 2008 05:00:13 EDT
Dear All...

While I oninit , I got the following messages :

Warning:The IBM IDS Developer Edition license restriction limits
the number of CPUs on this machine to 1 .
the number of CPU VPs has been reset .

Since the kaio run only on cpu vps , so , no matter which number I set
in onconfig,IDS 11.50 developer edition only run one cpu vps(license limits ),
that is why ... onstat -g iov got only one kio ...

Am I correct ?!

Re: Only have one kio in IDS 11.50 developer editi
Posted by: mars@jsun.com (MARS CHEN) - Mon, 14 Jul 2008 02:37:17 EDT
Dear All....

While I oninit the IDS 11.50(developer edition) ... the final result of
cat /proc/slabinfo | greo "kio" would be the following
kioctx 1 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 0 0 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

before oninit ...
kioctx 0 0 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 0 0 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

during the process of oninit ... it starts like :
kioctx 16 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 16 30 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

and then ....
kioctx 8 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 23 30 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

and then ....
kioctx 2 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 96 150 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

and then ....
kioctx 1 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 69 150 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

and finally ...
kioctx 1 20 192 20 1 : tunables 120 60 8: slabdata
kiocb 0 0 128 30 1 : tunables 120 60 8 :slabdata

I've google the "kioctx" .. look like if IDS has n kio threads ,
the kioctx will showes n , in my case , is "1" .... so I think
onstat -g iov has only one kio is something to do with my onconfig ,
or ... it is because IDS 11.50 is developer edition , some restrictions
are in it ~~~

Only have one kio in IDS 11.50 developer edition
Posted by: mars@jsun.com (MARS CHEN) - Mon, 14 Jul 2008 00:05:10 EDT
Dear All...

I've a IDS 11.50 developer edition in RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 ,
I've fdisk /dev/sda for partition and then
edit /etc/udev/rules.d/60-raw.rules , the ls -l
showes it is a raw devices ( "c" is the first flag in ls -l /dev/raw/raw1
....",
I have 3 chunk built with 3 raw devices , root dbspace use raw1 ,
dbspace1 use chunk2 and chunk3 , after oninit , onstat -g iov
showes one kio ... but only one !!!!!

What can I do to get more kio in onstat -g iov ?!
it is because IDS 11.50 is developer edition ?! or what have I missed !?

I also noticed that : cat /proc/slabinfo | grep "ko"
showes :

kioctx　1　20　192　20
　1　:tunables　120　60 ...
kiocb　　0 　0 .....

it is because OS's factor so that IDS 11.50 just can have one KIO ?!
or something wrong with my onconfig ?!

Any comments are welcomed !!!~~

Unpacking Latest ClientSDK On Ubuntu/Debian
Posted by: cnorton@town.arlington.ma.us (CHARLES NORTON) - Wed, 25 Jun 2008 14:25:30 EDT
My workstation and a test system run Ubuntu, which is Debian (dpkg) based.
I've checked with IBM support to find the current Linux Client SDK is
RPM-based. Other than using alien, has anyone encountered the need to install
the Client SDK on a Debian-based system, and would you billing to post your
solution here?

Thanks.

ISM life cycle management help
Posted by: lisa.nelson@agedwards.com (LISA NELSON) - Tue, 29 Apr 2008 12:08:40 EDT
I have migrated 3 servers from Informix 7. to 10.00.FC7, Sun to Linux SUSE 9
and from logging to /dev/null to using ISM to do onbar backups.

The backups, using ISM and ONBAR are working on all 3 servers just fine, but
since I am not familiar with ISM administration, I am wondering how to manage
the backup files and keep their integrity for use as a restore if needed..

I am using the "file" type media to backup to 2 seperate directories;
/backup/ISM/dbspaces and /backup/ISM/logfiles .

At first I had planned to tar up the files after onbar completion and store
them in another area for filesytem backup, but I found that I had to leave the
"volume" file in place or it corrupts the setup and the backup no longer
works. I have read that the "volume" file stores all the information about the
backups, so I figured it needed to stay with each nightly set of backup files.

I started looking at administrating the backups through nsradmin -c -- but I
am so not a storage tech, so the screens are confusing to me.

If anyone has a strategy and/or scripts that would help me figure out how to
manage the backup files so that we could safely know that we could test a
restore, I would appreciate any information offered.

I have figured out a lot about how ISM works, but I have a feeling there is
part of the puzzle that I am missing - or I am making it way too hard.

Thanks in advance;

Error con CONTROL-C (INTERRUPT)
Posted by: cuge@ceride.gov.ar (MARIA EUGENIA KALBERMATTEN) - Wed, 23 Apr 2008 07:18:43 EDT
I'm running applications in INFORMIX-4GL Version 7.30.UC5 on Linux
version 2.6.24.4-64.fc8 (mockbuild@xenbuilder2.fedora.redhat.com) (gcc version
4.1.2 20070925 (Red Hat 4.1.2-33)) and I have the following objection:
In data entry through a INPUT, hit CTRL-C and working properly as I
interrupted. That is canceled correctly. But after being in the same
application I do not interpret the CTRL-C again. It is as if only interprets
it once.
The same thing happens in a query. I interrupt a constructive and then I can
not I get back to interrupt the next.
With the ACCEPT (esc) pass me the same thing. But this so I could settle in
redefining OPTIONS key ACCEPT assigned to another key (eg F9).
As I do the same with the INTERRUPT?
Well I hope some help or comment
Thank you

Delete Key Problem in Forms Informix SE
Posted by: dabeeler@ci.gatlinburg.tn.us (DAVID BEELER) - Tue, 08 Apr 2008 22:48:42 EDT
We are migrating our Informix database from a Unixware platform to Linux RHEL5
platform. We are using Informix SE with INFORMIXTERM=terminfo using vt220 as
term. The problem is that when in a form the delete will only abort out one
time. To make it work again you have to get out of the form and come back in.
The delete key aborts correctly when in dbaccess. I have tried everything I
can think of to no avail. Any suggestions for the fix to the problem will be
appreciated.

Thanks,
David Beeler

Re: Re: odbc test connection
Posted by: licort@yahoo.com (Liliana) - Mon, 03 Mar 2008 16:11:07 EST
The following e-mail was sent to you via Linux-Informix Forum from Liliana (licort@yahoo.com) at IP address 200.1.81.99 (c200181-99.bvc.com.co).



Re: Re: odbc test connection

I have disadvantages in connecting a client sdk v.2.9 to informix ids 10 in Linux redhat. When I test connection ODBC does not pass. My server has two cards of network and I have tried to connect from another Linux and he is connected well by the direction of the second card of network, but in Windows he is not connected by any.

In my file /etc/hosts
200.1.94.210 tebubk

In my file /etc/services
tebubk_sox 20002/tcp


In my file /opt/informix/etc/sqlhosts
tebubk onipcshm on_tebubk on_tebubk
tebubk_sox onsoctcp tebubk tebubk_sox

When attempt to test connection ODBC I get the following error:

Test connection was not successful.[informix][informix ODBC driver][informix]system error occurred in network function.

This connection I have tried it forming the first card of network and works in Windows, but in Linux it is not connected by the first card of network so that the 2 servers are in different segment from network.

Somebody has some idea of the subject.
