To test your database connection:

1. From the Windows Start menu, choose

Programs | Informix | Ilogin Demo

The ILogin window appears.

2. From the menu, choose File | Run.

3. Leave the Login Parameters blank. They will default to your server settings previously defined in SetNet32.

4.Make sure a stores database appears in the Stores Database field.

5.Press OK.

6. If the connection is successful and a stores database exists on the server, customer records will be returned.

If the connection is successful and no stores database exists on the server, a message will return stating "No ‘stores’ database is found on the database server."

If the connection is unsuccessful, a series of error messages and numbers will occur. Continue debugging the problem until a successful connection is reached.
