FP2 Vista cannot configure default instance

Hi,

On Vista 64-bit, I am in the administrators' group + DB2ADMNS.

FP2 was applied on FP1 and went fine, except that I got a message that
DB2COPY1 cannot be updated (right access denied ???). I don't get it. After
that, I cancelled, and setup was successful.

I have also tried to set the already default copy as default copy
(Start->programs ... -Set-up tools -Default DB2 ....) and get the same
error.

Any tricky thing to do on Vista to solve this pb ?

Thanks,

Jean-Marc

If you can, replace Vista with XP. I did an installation routine for
DB2 9.1 last year and it gave me all kinds of headaches. The reason
for this is that you usually work as a "reduced" administrator and
can't change your own files you installed just a minute ago.

However, you can run programs explicitly as full administrator; for
instance, by right clicking on the icon, or by pressing shift+return
while entering the command in the start menu. (I dumped Vista after I
finished writing the routine, so I'm not sure about the details now.)

Hi,

Thanks for your help and explanation.

Vista is really a mess, I fully agree, and I deactivated user control to
avoid clicking all the time on actions. But as far as I remember, I did not
get the issue with FP1, but I may have installed directly from FP1 code.I
can't unfortunately come back to XP 64 bit :-(.

Thanks again,

JM

As far as I remember my install routine was for FP2. So maybe it will
help if you remove FP1 first, then install FP2.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
