If this is the issue you might set the following in your session before initializing Informix, we had a similar issue.

export IFMX_UNDOC_B168163

Hi,

the check on language settings (CLIENT_LOCALE, DB_LOCALE) is more strict in
IDS9.40FC9 (I think it started with FC7).
If DB_LOCALE doesn't match the server setting the connection is refused.

Example:
If you run IDS on a UNIX box, the DB_LOCALE will probably be ISO 8859-1
(default). With older IDS version a (windows) client with
CLIENT_LOCALE=de_DE.1252 , DB_LOCALE=de_DE.1252 could connect to the server.
With IDS9.40FC9 that connection is not allowed.
The client must set DB_LOCALE to the correct value (en_us.819 for ISO 8859-1).
If you are using special characters you have to check if they are on the same
place (value) in the client (windows codepage) and server (iso codepage),
otherwise NOW a conversion will take place which wasn't done before.

Regards
Andreas Kutsche
