I have installed Informix Dynamic Server 9.30 on Win 2000. When I try start service by Admin or try run oninit by informix I have the error:

"ERROR: Could not initialize the security subsystem. Please ensure that this account has the necessary privileges and ensure INFORMIXSERVER value exists in the registry and environment."

service started by user informix. The user is member of Administrators and Informix-Admin groups. He has all permissions on every file.

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Informix\OnLine\ol_sam urai\Environment]
"INFORMIXSERVER"="ol_samurai"

Environment variable "INFORMIXSERVER" is initialized as System variable....

Have some ideas?

You should have installed other informix products. Last time i meet the same problem. Later i installed it on a clean system and success.

Hi ,
