    Hello there,

    i can´t find the download in the Fix Central for the Linux 64bit Version?

    Which Ubuntu LTS version is certified ? 18.04 LTS already ?

    Hi Marc,

    you won't find anymore the Informix Editions we used to donwload, i.e Express Edition, Workgroup Edition, Enterprise Edition etc...

    The install processs has been changed for good: in the usual IBM download areas, you will only find the Developer Edition which is now the BASE binary for Informix install. After you install the DeveloperEdition binary, you will install and run your license file, which will transform Developer Edition into YOUR edition, which is described in your license file.
     I know you can find your license file in Software access, not sure about any other place. Hopefully someone will complete my answer for your particular case. @Milind ?
    The new install process is great because it greatly simplifies the procedure.
    As per Ubuntu certification, I can see Ubuntu 17.10 ( see in https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27013343#linux)
    Probably worth giving a try with 18: generally issues with libraries will occur more at install time than at runtime.
    I know some people in this form are Ubuntu fans, and may look at this message with more accurate findings.
    All the best! 1'.10 is a great brew!

    Hi Marc,

    14.10 is a new main release and not available on fix central until there´s a fix for that version. 

    With 14.10 IBM changed  the installation method. You can find a description here: 
    https://www.cursor-distribution.de/en/ibm-software/informix-software/informix-media-download

    You can download the developer edition at trials: https://www.ibm.com/products/informix/editions?mhq=informix&mhsrc=ibmsearch_p
    But you need your edition installer from your business partner or distributor.

    Here you find the latest informations about the plattform availability:

    Cheers
    Erik

    The answers already given are correct.  If you want more information on how the installer works, check the Library area of this community. There is a video on the new installation mechanism. In addition, if you are in the US, my North America Roadshow is starting soon which has a section, in detail, on how the installer works.  Please register for the session closest to you. I'm also presenting the same material in the monthly IIUG webcast on July 8.

    Thank you everyone for your support.

    In the meantime i got the workgroud edition license file and the Ids-14.10 install package.

    But i am wondering.. where is the E/SQL support and the CSDK? Isn´t it inside the installer anymore ?

    You are correct, the CSDK is no longer part of the IBM Informix v.14.10 binary. It is a separate download and install. This allows us to decrease the binary size and separate the products so each can be revised independent of the other.  You can find the CSDK downloads here:  https://www-01.ibm.com/marketing/iwm/iwm/web/pickUrxNew.do?source=ifxdl
