php/Informix

I have a Solaris machine running Informix and a Linux machine with the
Informix SDK installed. I've been running php scripts for a couple months
now on the Linux box that connect to Informix and do various
queries/updates.

Recently (with no apparent changes to anything of course) these scripts
started failing. They're unable to connect to Informix, and the error
message is "Unable to load locale categories."

I'm looking for tips, hints, or whole answers as to what this means??

Thanks,

I copy-pasted "Unable to load locale categories", added php and informix to
the query and hit that google search button.
Plenty of hits. You are not the first apparantly, and this question probably
was answered too, judging by the number of hits.
Gluck!

Hi, I am sure if anyone can help me, you guys can! I am an Informix Developer, moving to Oracle 8i and later databases. I am struggling to find the Oracle equivelant to many of the useful Informix features that I have come to rely upon.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
