We got a warm spell. Whatever Montreal got as snow we got as rain.
As a result the driveway is an ice-rink.. a tilted ice rink :-(
The effect is the same - can't move.

W.r.t a re-install from scratch. Perhaps a good idea.
If nothing else it will exclude all the dubious scenarios.

I'm just coming out of a serious DB2 9.5 PMR with an ISV. Similar thing:
-440.
Swore they did not play with PATH.. until we found it in the CLI trace.
q.e.d.

Cheers
Serge

I have sent this to the appropriate forum, but no one as replied.

I have now tried this on two servers and two clients. Same results
both times. This is a bug with DB2. Or the different PATH variables
are so complicated that I can't figure them out. And I shouldn't have
to.

I tried re-installing V8.x, but get lots of errors, maybe related to
leftovers from 9.1 and 9.5. I don't have time for all this, it's two
weeks now -- I have a business to run and I have to feed my family.
And I know that SQL Server works . . .

With best wishes and tears in my eyes,

SS

Why would you install software (V9.5) that was just released and has no
fixpacks available yet? Are you from Mars?

Don't forget z/OS in the list... ;-)

And i5/OS too: there it's usualy named as "library list" (and may be you
have to use "/" instead of "." to full qualify names) but it's the same
concept ;-)
(and DB2 for i5/OS is rather "self managing" :-)
