Informix
If you want to run the tutorials with an Informix database, complete the instructions below.
- 1. If you have not already done so, set database-specific environment variables:
- C Shell:
setenv INFORMIXDIR
informix_directory
- Bourne/Korn Shell:
INFORMIXDIR=
informix_director
y
-
export INFORMIXDIR
-
- where
informix_directory
is the directory containing the etc/sqlhosts
file.
- 2. Since tutorials require data from a database, as well as dynamic SQL and stored procedures to manipulate the data, you will have to load a set of tables which are supplied with the Sapphire/Web distribution. Unless you have an "sa" account on the database, your database administrator will have to perform this step.
At the command line, type:
$SAPPHIRE/bin/build_pubs2_inf server
-
server:
the server where the pubs2
database is to be imported
- Note: If you already have a database called
pubs2
, you will need to remove it before running these scripts.
- 3. To load the tutorial's DSQL Objects into the correct location, type the following at the command line:
$SAPPHIRE/bin/install_db server owner I
-
server:
the server where the imported pubs2
database is located.
-
owner:
the username of the owner of the pubs2
database.
-
I:
Vendor Type should always be I
for Informix.
- 4. Copy the DSQL Objects into your DSQLDIR by typing:
cp $SAPPHIRE/tutorials/dsql/* $HOME/dsql
- 5. Finally, grant connect privileges to all potential users of the
pubs2
database.
