RE: Creating /INFORMIXTMP/.infxdirs...FAILED ...

In Response To: RE: Creating /INFORMIXTMP/.infxdirs...FAILED ... (Logan, David (SST - Adelaide))

Does this goes back to installation ?

How did you install informix - did you use root user id. Was there any RUN_AS_ROOT that were there and you missed out to execute them ?

Check your logs and start from there.

Sunil.

Hi Frank,

Looking at this error message

21:22:50 neterrb.c, line 658, thread 1, proc id 102870, net_init.c, line

323, thread 1, errno=13, error in creating /INFORMIXTMP..

<--------------------

there is an errno = 13 which suggests permissions are incorrect on the

INFORMIXTMP directory, hence the inability to create the .infxdirs as

noted. Possibly because this is being created in the root directory and

perhaps the permissions have been set incorrectly, however this should

be created as part of the installation process. Are the permissions

correct?

drwxrwxr-t 2 informix informix 4096 2006-11-10 08:37 INFORMIXTMP
