ODBC Driver Problems

[g***@nhs.net]

I have just changed PC's and am having difficulty getting my Informix
ODBC Driver to work.

We are running Informix on a Unix box, and using Informix driver v 3.32
32bit which was working without any problems on my old PC (and still
is)

However, on my new PC I am getting the following error:-
The displayed locale and codeset have not been found on the client
machine. Using these locale/codeset will result in a -23101 Unable to
load locale categories error. Please install the locales.

The locales being specified in the driver configuration are
en_US.CP1252, and all ODBC Registry Entries are identical on both my
old and new PC's.

Please Help

sounds like INFORMIXDIR
env var is not set properly.

How can this be?

INFORMIXDIR is set on the Unix Box, and everything is working fine
there

The ODBC settings I am trying to use worked without any problems on the
old PC - just having problems on the new PC

Good. So the problem probably isn't on the Unix box.

Oh - and have you done the same registry setup on the new PC that you
did on the old one? SETNET32 might be the tool you need. I'm not an
expert on ODBC or Windows, so I could be spouting nonsense, but the
message (-23101 - cannot load locale categories) you are getting is
fully consistent with INFORMIXDIR not set. Have you got I-Connect or
ClientSDK installed on the PC? Does it have SETNET32 in the Informix
bin directory? Have you used it?

Windows is a weird system - and the registry confuses the heck out of
me. But I strongly suspect the answer lies there.

Did you run setnet32 on the new pc? Did you test the connections once you
created the datasources? Are you sure INFORMIXDIR is set? What about
ILogin?

Did you try to replace old GLS directory to new one?

And is there any regional difference between old OS and new OS?

Hola, teclea en la maquina unix:

$ env|grep CLIENT_LOCALE

Tienes que poner la misma en el cliente ODBC, en mi caso es:
CLIENT_LOCALE=es_es.8859-1
DB_LOCALE=es_es.8859-1

Seguramente en tu caso será:

CLIENT_LOCALE=en_US.8859-1
DB_LOCALE=en_US.8859-1

saludos.
