You mean Informix C-ISAM?

Ask IBM. They supply the product, so they should be able to offer support for it too.

In general, all HP-UX Itanium servers include the Aries emulator, which can run PA-RISC HP-UX binaries on Itanium. Of course, if you can get native Itanium versions, it will run faster. And you cannot use a PA-RISC library with a native Itanium program or vice versa.

hi,

thx for your answer. My application admin need c-isam library, in the other server that run on PARISC platform, they use it. I have already copy these libraro to itanium server, but application admin told me that still failed. hmmm...

Hello,

Vendor (IBM) must provide support
for the product. If they do not, then you
are simply not getting value for your money,

Here are the IBM Informix releases
supported on HP-UX servers:

http://www-01.ibm.com/software/info/integrity/index.jsp

Informix C-ISAM 7.25.UC2 is listed as
supported version.

On the other hand, HP ISV page shows version
7.26.UC3 as supported:

https://h20299.www2.hp.com/CustomerTool/isv_status.aspx?st=anltr&qry=i

Make sure you follow the vendor's
installation requirements!

Also, you did not specify what kind of
errors you are getting. It is difficult
to answer the incomplete question.

Cheers,

hi,

we have no deal with IBM so we don't have support from them.
i just copy this library from my system run hp-ux 11.11 to new system run hp-ux 11.31, and got this error (got from application team)

/usr/include/isam.h:44:21: error: decimal.h: No such file or directory

>/usr/include/isam.h:44:21: error: decimal.h: No such file or directory

It appears you also need to copy decimal.h, etc.

how about these errors:

smdapp@smedpapp4:~
501 #> gcc teskus.c -o tes -lisam
ld: Mismatched ABI (not an ELF file) for -lisam, found /usr/local/lib/gcc/ia64-hp-hpux11.31/4.2.3/../../../libisam.a
Fatal error.
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

This is says you have a PA32 lib, not an IPF library.

"This is says you have a PA32 lib, not an IPF library."
what does it mean? what should i do ?

>what does it mean? what should I do?

You are trying to mix a PA library with an Integrity application.

You could purchase or build your own Integrity version of c-isam.

Or you will have to build your application on a PA system (or use XPADE) and run it under Aries on your Integrity system.
