When initiating the database, a critical error message "oninit: Fatal error in initializing ASF with 'ASF_INIT_DATA'" with asfcode '25507' might be encountered. This issue originates from an improper setting in the NETTYPE parameter within the $INFORMIXDIR/etc/$ONCONFIG configuration file. It is frequently caused by copying configuration files between different hardware platforms without modification.
