SQL database readonly error on Windows 7

24 New Member
Hi,

I am facing a strange problem. I have installed a program on windows 7, my installation has a sql database. The program is installed properly. But when i run the program and try to save any data in the database i get an error "Database read-only". How to manage this situation on windows 7 or vista.

Any help will be highly appreciated.


Regards,
Prasad Parik

Did you copied your database from somewhere else? If so, look for the db, right click, uncheck 'Read-only' and grant security permission to 'Everyone' with Full Control.

Then try running your installed program as Administrator, right click, choose 'Run as', then login to the administrator account.

Has anyone setup DB2 8.1 (fix patch 7) on Windows 2000 to be a DRDA server? I want to have an iSeries with OS400 V5R2 act as a DRDA client to an 8.1 DB2 UDB database hosted on Windows and so it can access the data stored on the windows database. What are the steps to set this up? Also, is this the best way to go about accessing a windows db2 8.1 database from an application running on os400 v5R2 release?

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
