How to install

Troubleshooting common issues

• Driver not showing in ODBC list - On Windows, run ODBC Administrator matching your app’s bitness (C:WindowsSystem32odbcad32.exe for 64‑bit, C:WindowsSysWOW64odbcad32.exe for 32‑bit). Re‑run install as admin if missing.
• “SQL30081N” or network errors - Verify host, port, database name, and that the Db2 server is reachable. Check firewall rules and SSL/TLS settings if enabled.
• “Driver not found” at runtime - Add clidriver/bin (Windows) or clidriver/lib[64] (Linux) to PATH/LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Restart apps and services after changes.
• 32‑bit/64‑bit mismatch - The ibm db2 odbc driver must match the application bitness, not the OS. Install both variants if you run both app types.
• Authentication failures - Confirm user permissions on the Db2 server. If using LDAP/Kerberos, validate credentials and client configuration.
• Uninstall/reinstall - Remove the existing Db2 client or IBM Data Server Driver package, reboot, then reinstall the ThinkPad 600-600E UltraslimBay DVD Drive cleanly.

FAQ

What is the ibm db2 odbc driver used for?
It enables ODBC‑compliant applications to connect to IBM Db2 databases for querying, reporting, and integration tasks.
