DB2 driver filename issue with Server configuration tool

112 Views Asked by At

After installing a DB2 + WAS Liberty profile and the Mobile First server, we are trying to follow the Installing MobileFirst Server administration with the Server Configuration Tool steps.

At step 6, we're attempting to connect to a DB2 (v10.5) running on localhost:50000. After entering the hostname/port values - the message displayed in the panel is: "Invalid driver jar file name."

DB2 V10.5 IBM MobileFirst Platform Server Configuration Tool 7.1.0.00.20150807-0630 IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty Core - v8.5.5.7 IBM WebSphere SDK Java Technology Edition v7.0 for Libery 7.0.9.10

db2jcc4.jar was referenced during installation of the MobileFirst server components. Confirmed db2jcc4.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar exist in the WAS Liberty server profile

Anybody run into this?
Suspecting:

  1. The Server Configuration tool isn't picking up the correct db2 jdbc jar file name .. bug?
  2. The db2 driver jar name is misconfigured in a config file somewhere

Any pointers?

You need to re-enter the DB2 JDBC driver directory in the Server Configuration tool. Scroll down on the scren of the 'Database Settings' panel to have the text field to enter the directory.
