Hi
I create two system users on windows XP.
When I try to connect to database as one of these users(or user informix) -with ILogin Demo (from Client SDK 2.81) it works fine.
But when I try connect from Borland C++ builder (with using IDAC-Informix
Data Access Components) it works only when I connect as user "informix".
When I try to connect as some other user I got an error "951 Incorrect pasword or user XY is not known on the database server.

I dont understand why it works with ILogin Demo but not with Borland C++.

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

You must grant permissions into Informix for new user.
Run dbaccess, then Query--->New, and run grant connect to username;

I granted permissions fot new users at the begining , after ILogin demo got me an error.
After that ILogin could connect but not my application in C++ Builder.
I also checked sysusers table in my database and there are permissions for my users. (first has connect permission , second has resource permission).

Hi,
run you setnet32 and defined new user ?
Please remember that the new user should not belong to a domain, should be local.

Gustavo.

Now I ran my Setnet32 and defined new user than apply, than defined second user than apply than make default server.
But C++ Builder always get an error: 951 Incorrect pasword or user XY is not known on the database server

My users are local, on the same machine as informix server.

Hi,
Please take one user to Informix-Admin group, then test connect.

Gustavo.

I change the users account type from Limited to Administrator, then I add users to Informix-Admin group and suddenly I can connect do database
But then I change user account type back to Limited and remove user from Informix-Admin group and I can still connect to databse.
Strange but it works now.

Thank you
