The problem lies in the fact that you can't change the media location
on the CD during an upgrade. This is a limitation of all Windows
Installer Based installations. Since you likely used the original CD
to install with - you will need to make sure that the Fixpak 9 CD uses
the same structure as the original CD.
This would typically mean setup.exe is at the root of the installation
CD and all of the cab files and MSI would be under \db2\Windows on the
CD.
This should clear the problem up. When the installer is not using a CD
this issue is irrelevent.
Thanks,
