Hello All,
I've got an odd situation on my hands, and I'm hoping someone here can
help. I've got DB2 v8.1 Express Edition set up on a Windows 2000 Server
system, and it appears to be working properly: I took all the defaults
during the install, and I can connect to and manipulate it via the
local Control Center.
However, when I attempt to connect from a remote system -- whether it
be a Control Center on another machine or Perl's DBD::DB2 module -- I
get a very odd error:
SQL0901N The SQL statement failed because of a non-severe system erorr.
Subsequent SQL statements can be processed. (Reason "Unsupporte d
function for SPMDB connect".) SQLSTATE=58004
Unfortunately, there is *no* information whatsoever about this error's
"reason" on the web -- the one thing I've seen in all my hunting was
someone saying "call IBM, they'll know." The problem I have is that I
can't do this: since I'm actually just a security researcher trying to
verify some vulnerabilities and grab network captures, I and my company
are in no position to pay for a support license (and sadly, I doubt IBM
will give us a free one, even if we will be trying to help them by
writing Snort signatures to detect these attacks).
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here? Alternately, is there
anyone who would mind occasionally lending me the use of a DB2 database
so that I can test vulnerabilities (unlikely, but it can't hurt to
ask)?
Thanks in advance for whatever you can do.

Did you catalog the remote node and remote database on your client machine?
Does the remote database show up in the Configuration Assistant on the
client?
DB2 comes with a sample database that can be installed using the First Steps
program.
Yes, I've cataloged it, and Perl can actually establish a connection --
the error comes when I attempt to run any SQL statement at all, even
"select * from sample.emp_acct " (I apologize, I could have been more
clear when I posted; I'm trying to beat back a cold, I guess my brain
was a little foggy). As you can probably see from the SQL statement
here, I'm using the sample database from the First Steps tool.
Of course, it could be that I've cataloged it incorrectly somehow --
though I'm not entirely certain how I'd recognize such an error. FYI, I
cataloged the database using the Configuration Assistant tool, by
searching the network for discoverable databases.
Thanks for your help here...hopefull y this clarification will make
getting to the bottom of the a problem a little easier. :-)

Hi everybody,
My problem seems a bit clichè but I could not work around.
Well I read lots of MSDN papers and discussions, but my problem is a bit
different from them. When I tried to run the project in debug mode (by
hitting F5) it gives an error message
"Error while trying to run project: Unable to start debugging on the web
