Error When Starting IDS

Why Trust Us

Question:
I just installed IDS 7.31.uc5 on HPUX 11. When I try starting it up (oninit -iy) I get the following error:

unable to open input file 's'unable to open input file 'c'

The dump file also states a kaio error:

Can't open /dev/asyncFile: kaio.c Line: 2121

How do I resolve these errors?

Answer:
Looks like the install was done incorrectly. Somehow, oninit is receiving the parameters “s” and “c”, which are meaningless. Reinstall Informix. If that doesn’t work, call Informix support.
