Problem(Abstract)
You see errors like these on Windows when running ontape, oninit, starts, net start and so on as user informix:
Only member of IXDBSA group (Informix-Admin, by default) can start IBM Informix Dynamic Server.
Dynamic Server failed to start in Recovery Mode. Check Event Log for errors.
System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied.
Symptom
- Only member of IXDBSA group (Informix-Admin, by default) can start IBM Informix Dynamic Server.
- Dynamic Server failed to start in Recovery Mode. Check Event Log for errors.
- System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied.
Cause
The behavior you are seeing is caused by one of these:
- Windows User Account Controls (UAC) component is enabled
- Lack of rights for user informix
- The user is not part of the IXDBSA group (Informix-Admin, by default)
Resolving the problem
- Always open your command windows with the "Run As Administrator" functionality.
- Disable the UAC component:
