UnsatisfiedLinkError: SQLConnect

[P P B Bhatia]

What caused java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: SQLConnect exception when trying to use DB2 Datasource to connect from WSAD to DB2 database? I have db2java.zip in server classpath but NO DB2 client installed on my locally.

It is missing the native libraries which come with the db2 client. The new drivers packaged in db2jcc.jar conatin a type 4 driver which you can use without a db2 client installed.
