[-- Attachment #1 --] Alas, Informix doesn't have a native FreeBSD port of their esql/c product. However, we recently went through a database selection process and our Informix sales guys managed to get approval for the port (just esql/c, not the entire database) to be done. We ultimately went with another database so I don't know the status of the port, but if they went ahead it would be nearing completion. (And if they didn't, I don't imagine it would be too difficult to get the project going again). I suggest contacting your friendly Informix sales rep and see what they can do for you. -- Dave ----- Original Message ----- From: Rich To: freebsd stable Sent: Monday, July 17, 2000 12:06 PM Subject: Maybe someone here has a solution? Most of our machines in this office run FreeBSD-3.x or 4.x and I need to write an application that selects certain info from an Informix database and displays the results in HTML. The Informix DB is on a SCO OpenServer 5.x boxen ... I can very easily use APACHE/Mod_Perl + ESQL/C to write this application ... but I can't find any info on using esql/c on a freebsd box or even something similar that I can use. Anyone have any idea's or suggestions for th ebest solution? -thanks Rich [-- Attachment #2 --] <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type> <META content="MSHTML 5.00.2722.2800" name=GENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Alas, Informix doesn't have a native FreeBSD port of their esql/c product.
