Informix connection error 9293

Post by itsrb » 30 Sep 2010, 16:56

Upgrading(attempting) to 5.2(SP2) from 4.1. Cannot connect to Informix database.

Environment: Windows XP SP3

SQL.INI entries:

[win32client]
clientname=Win32User
clientruntimedir="c:\program files\unify"

[win32client.dll]
comdll=sqlifx32

No other sql.ini or sqlifx32 files are present on the system.

System path:

C:\Program Files\Unify;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\bin\NOTES\;C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Common\3.5\bin\NOTES\DATA\;C:\Program Files\HEAT\;C:\INFORMIX\BIN

SetNet32 version: 7.20 (also have attempted version 2.90)

Error (IDE or EXE):

9293 GCI NDL Cannot load any communication DLLs, network may not be installed

Reason: This error is currently undocumented.

Remedy: Contact your local Gupta Technologies, LLC certified technical
support center for assistance.

----------------------------------------------------

After the initial installation, the system path was set to:

C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2\axis2c\lib;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;C:\Program Files\Gupta\Team Developer 2005.1;C:\Centura\Dbcnvt;C:\Centura\Samples;C:\Centura;C:\orant\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Lenovo;C:\INFORMIX\BIN

Obviously the 5.1 version would not function at that point. Once the entries of 5.2 were removed, the 5.1 version was
again functional.

Hi.

I connect with Informix with no problem.

When I was evaluating TD5.1, I had to change my iconnect(setnet) to a newer (see attachment).

I just had success to connect after using the new iconnect.

If you don't have success, I send you my sql.ini

My best regards.

I would prefer not to change the SetNet version(specifically considering in the published TD5.2 documentation, it references the same version that I am using)....I would consider this only as a last option. That would be great if you could send your sql.ini and also perhaps your system path? Question - do you have other versions of TD installed as I do?

Thanks for your feedback.

Hello,
[win32client]
clientname=Win32User
clientruntimedir="c:\program files\unify"
Your clientruntimedir must point to the location of the TD Informix router and other TD DLLs. In other words, from your PATH, it must point to C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2.

Please change your sql.ini clientruntimedir to see if that's the cause of the problem.

If it doesn't, please use Dependency Walker (https://www.dependencywalker.com) to find if there are any dependent DLLs missing in your system for the connection to work.

Hope this helps,

I have actually tried that, among several other things, without success. In your scenario, i believe it does not find the sqlifx32.dll file.

Path:
C:\Program Files\Unify;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2\axis2c\lib;C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;C:\orant\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Lenovo;C:\INFORMIX\BIN

Sql.ini:
[win32client]
clientname=Win32User
clientruntimedir="C:\Program Files\unify\Team Developer 5.2\"

[win32client.dll]
comdll=sqlifx32

(there are no other sql.ini/sqlifx32.dll files)

Error - 9293 Cannot Load Any Comm DLLs

I believe that the sqlifx32.dll is not being found.
I just did a start/run... of sqlifx32.dll and up popped my PE Explorer pgm. (http://www.heaventools.com) for looking at DLLs, proving that file's in my PATH. Maybe try that running that yourself and see what happens.

This folder: C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2;
should be right where it lives. Isn't it there in that folder for you?

I see a diff. in my INI:
clientruntimedir="C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2"
I have that entry without a final backslash, as you show you have.

Last, don't know why I suggest this, but add: comdll=sqlws32
to [win32client.dll] after the other comdll= you have. sqlws32 (SQLBase I know needs to be last, if listed. Perhaps it's also required to have that entry?)

Yes - the sqlifx32.dll is in the correct folder (see attached). No other sqlifx32.dll files exist.

1) i removed the "\" from the end of the clientruntime variable. (i had actually tried this before).

[win32client]
clientname=Win32User
clientruntimedir="C:\Program Files\Unify\Team Developer 5.2"

2) i added the sqlws32 entry.

[win32client.dll]
comdll=sqlifx32
comdll=sqlws32

[infogtwy]
remotedbname=crstsm6,DATABASE crstst_m6, -sreserve_soc_m6_tst -hu7mtst.motel6.com -vreserve_soc_m6_tst

So with this entry, I get a 9268 - cannot connect error. If I remove it, then i am back to the 9293 - cannot load dll error.

I still believe that for some reason, it does not recognize the sqlifx32 entry.
