lwilcox,

Is this a new problem or have you never been able to connect to DB2?

Could you give me particulars of the DB2 version and driver you are using?

Best,
Brian.

did you attach driver to your database?

Yes I did.
Here are my jar files: db2jcc.jar, db2jcc_javax.jar, db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar.
This is my driver class: com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver.

This is a new problem for me. I was able to connect to DB2 before. This happened after I installed a MyEclipse_M2 version. Then I reinstalled the MyEclipse_M1 version, thought that the probem will go away. Anyway, there is something missing here that I couldn’t figure it out yet.
Please refer to the previous posting for information on my system: DB2 Errors with MyEclipse Database Explorer.

Any suggestion?

Thanks,
Lien

Lien,

Sorry for the delay in responding – I seem to have missed this post.
We have not changed anything in this regardin since M1, so it is unlikely that a MyEclispe upgrade will have caused the issue, perhaps you changed your system / database configuration in some way.

Could you try using the COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver in db2java.zip (part of the DB2 distribution). What OS are you using?

Best,
Brian.
