Native JDBC Driver for v5r3

[Keith.McCully@xxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi,


Just taken delivery of new iSeries with OS v5r3 & JVM 1.4.2. Previously, 
had OS v4r3 & JVM 1.1.7 and JDBC worked ok.

Since both my programs and data are on the iSeries, I've followed IBM's 
recommendation and opted for the "Native" JDBC driver.

So far I have the following:

1. Added /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/jt400/lib/jt400Native.jar to my classpath 
(as my OS > v5r1)
2. Class.forName("com.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver")
3.Use DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:db2:*local", properties)for the 
connection.

Points 2 & 3 are unchanged from the previous version that worked, only the 
classpath has changed.

Compiled and tested in Qshell. Compiles ok but get runtime error message 
when attempts to establish connection:

Caught exception: INTERNAL ERROR:  Creation of DB2Driver object for 
registering with DriverManager failed. 

Any help or suggestions would be appreciated,

Keith
