Db2 Driver For Java - forfree-mondo80’s blog

JDBC Drivers. DB2 UDB provides for JDBC connectivity through a number of Java classes and interfaces that implement the JDBC specification. The implementation is.

Back to top. Java access methods to DB2. DB2 has a rich support for the J2EE programming model, allowing applications developers to access DB2.

Listed below are connection examples for three common JDBC drivers for IBM DB2:

IBM DB2 Universal Driver Type 4

DRIVER CLASS: com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver

DRIVER LOCATION: db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar

Both of these jars must be included

JDBC URL FORMAT: jdbc:db2:// : /

IBM DB2 Universal Driver Type 2

In order to be able to use the DB2 App driver, certain software

must be installed on your machine. This usually entails installing

the IBM DB2 Client software. See IBM s site for more information.

DRIVER CLASS: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver

DRIVER LOCATION: To use the App driver, the DB2 client software should be installed on your machine. The name

of the file that contains the DB2 App driver is usually db2java.zip. However, this may change depending on the version

of the client software that is installed. Usually, the DB2 client software is installed in the SQLLIB directory. For example,

if you are using Windows, the following may be the location of the db2java.zip file: c: SQLLIB java12 db2java.zip

DRIVER CLASS: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.net.DB2Driver

DRIVER LOCATION: The DB2 Net drivers can be obtained by installing the DB2 client software from IBM. Depending

on the version of the client software, the net drivers are usually contained in the db2java.zip file. For example,

if using Windows, the following may be the location of the db2java.zip file that contains the drivers: c: SQLLIB java12 db2java.zip

JDBC URL FORMAT: jdbc:db2://:/

The default port for IBM DB2 is many times one of the following: 446, 6789, or 50000. Usually, if the default port is being used

by the database server, the : value of the JDBC url can be omitted.

jdbc:db2://neptune.acme.com:6789/test

This week s book giveaway is in the Android forum.

We re giving away four copies of Murach s Android Programming and have Joel Murach on-line.

Win a copy of Murach s Android Programming this week in the Android forum.

I m using jdk 1.6 on my local machine as well as the Linux server. And the db2 version is 8.2.6.

But when I run the code on the server it gives me a driver excpetion

java.lang.AbstractMethodError: com.ibm.db2.jcc.b.ad.isClosed Z

How did you declare PreparedStatement and Connection objects in your code.

Did you use java.sql interface, or ibm specific like com.ibmConnection classes.

getting a CLOB value as a String object

The IBM WS AdminServer service terminated with service-specific error 10.

DB2 JDBC Driver and URL Information

Where can I find the redistributable version of the IBM DB2 Type 4 driver. I suppose this is the driver I would use to connect from a Java app on windows to DB2 on.

Driver Exception ---- java.lang.AbstractMethodError: com.ibm.db2.jcc.b.ad.isClosed() (JDBC and Relational Databases forum at Coderanch)

I m using jdk 1.6 on my local machine as well as the Linux server. And the db2 version is 8.2.6. But when I run the code on the server it gives me a driver excpetion.

Type 2 driver is used when you have the Data server client installed in you machine. If you are running DB2 server in the same client machine, you can you Type 2 server.
