demo_on onipcshm on_hostname on_servername demo_se seipcpip se_hostname sqlexec archives1 setlitcp archives1.mdah.state.ms.us sqlexec where archives1 is your host name. Have /usr/informix/lib/sqlexecd archives1 running (I have it start on startup and then wait 5 seconds and then start apache, seems to need this elay for whatever reason. You will need the Informix SDK installed on your box, it has the nessessary libs and stuff that php will need. You will need to compile php using --with-informix. I'll email you back in a second with an email sent to me on how to compile it all. Adam On Thu, 3 Oct 2002, Mark Colvin wrote: > I have php 4.1.2 running on a linux 7.2 box.
