Hello folks at OpenSource@xxxxxxxxxxxx<mailto:OpenSource@xxxxxxxxxxxx> –
I am attempting to install the “IBM Data Server Driver” on Centos7 Linux to connect to an iSeries DB2 server from the Linux instance, in order to use the Python driver.
I installed the dsdriver from here:
https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21385217
And I am following the installation instructions here:
https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSEPGG_9.5.0/com.ibm.swg.im.dbclient.install.doc/doc/c0023452.html
We are stopped on the step of “Testing client-to-server communications using CLPPlus”
Below, I’ve included the output from CLPPlus during the connection attempt, and a sanitized copy of my “db2dsdriver.cfg”, where the actual username has been replaced with “username” and the actual host has been replaced with “example.com”.
The issue may be that the proper service is not running on port 50001 on the iSeries. Can anyone help by telling us what service does this dsdriver connect to, and what port does the service normally run on?
