Following are the steps I performed for connecting to DB2 from PERL I downloaded DBD-DB2.zip from the following
http://www.activestate.com/PPMPackages/zips/6xx-builds-only/ Then I extracted the zip to lib directory. The I did a ppm install DB2.ppd in the directory where DB2.ppd is lying. When I execute use DBI; @driver_names = DBI->available_drivers; it gives DB2 as a driver. Then I tried connecting to the database with the following string $dsn= "DBI:DB2:database=DEVDAS01;host=DB2InstalledServer;port=50000"; $user = "me"; $password = "mypass"; $dbh = DBI->connect($dsn, $user, $password, { RaiseError => 1, AutoCommit => 0 }); it returns an error "DBI->connect(database=DEVDAS01;host=DB2InstalledServer;port=50000) failed: [IBM][CLI Driver] CLI0124E Invalid argument value. SQLSTATE=HY009 at available_DB.pl line 9" Can anyone help me know what went wrong?
