i am newbee to this informix and i got lot of problems with my informix on solaris server , for every comman i give it gives the following error message

> check_version

Usage: check_version [csdk|conn]

check_version tells the user if they have installed an older version
of the given product over a newer one. $INFORMIXDIR must be set to the
product being checked.

Options:
csdk checks for ClientSDK
conn checks for Informix-Connect

so how to set the INFORMIXDIR ?? what file are to be edited in solaris environment ??

i would be greatfull if any info regarding this problem
cheers ,

HI,

You need the following environment variables:

INFORMIXDIR=path of Ibm-Informix has been installed.
ONCONFIG=$INFORMIXDIR/etc/name of onconfig file.
INFORMIXSERVER=name of you instance.
INFORMIXSQLHOSTS=name of sqlhosts file.
PATH=$INFORMIXDIR/bin:$PATH
