    db2 connect

    I have just installed db2 connect v8.1 (personal edition) on my PC - and
    reinstalled DB2 Application development client (again v8.1 FP4). When trying
    to use this to connect via CLI to an AS/400 (which is set up correctly
    according to the 'DB2 Version 8 Connectivity Cheat sheet' by Raul F Chong) I
    get an error message from db2licm.exe telling me that 'The procedure entry
    point sqlofgets could not be located in the dynamic link library
    DB2SYS.dll'.

    Does anyone know what this means - or how to fix it please ?

      Sounds like some part of the install didn't complete successfully. Post
      error msg #.

      Also, is it possible that the A/D client is at fp4, but DB2 Connect is not?

          Larry,

          I didn't get any error messages during the install. The first thing I get
          when trying to 'connect' is a window (with 'db2bp.exe - Entry Point not
          found' header and the error message as listed below (no error message no).
          When I OK that (only option), I get
          SQL8002N Connect processing failed; a valid product license was not found.
          SQLSTATE=42968

          This is exactly the same message I was getting when trying to connect to an
          AS/400 before installing DB2 connect.

          Wrt versions, I downloaded db2 connect from an IBM web site - but am having
          some difficulty now finding where I got it from (part of the PWD site I
          think). Can I tell somehow what version I have ?

          Regards

          Steve

              Not sure of exactly what to make of this. The "Entry Point Not Found"
              sounds like something didn't install completely. But I believe the
              sql8002n means that a try-and-buy license expired. You may need to open
              a PMR unless someone else has any suggestions.

                  Re: db2 connect

                  Larry (and all)

                  I have got this resolved via a PMR now. The basic problem was that I assumed
                  I needed to install DB2 Connect aswell as the FP4 version of the App Dev
                  Client - whereas all I really needed to do was a custom install using the
                  DB2 COnnect v8.1 FP4 software - making sure I included all of the client
                  apps I wanted.

                  Thanks for your help.

                  Regards
                  Steve
