LYCIA


Problem

On attempt to launch a Lycia app, the following exception is thrown:


“The error code (-1829) was received. Cannot open file citoxmsg.pam. The file citoxmsg.pam is missing from the directory $INFORMIXDIR/msg”

Solution

The issue is caused by the INFORMIXDIR variable having the wrong value. INFORMIXDIR should point to Informix dir: INFORMIXDIR=C:\Querix\Informix Client-SDK
