New Comment:
Then the matter is settled. It would have been so cool to have table
in text file where everything is arrange by x and y, just like the
spreadsheet for an example. If everyone use this then we wouldn't have
much need for thousands of database softwares.

Sniper you like me, you really like me :)
I won't open the can of worms that is remove the --with-ibm-db2 option
until I have a more viable solution then what is currently enabled. So
for those of you reading this in the future, worry not (yet)!

Like Mr. Kalowsky said, people should be using
unixODBC anyway with IBM DB2 (if they even suggest that themselves
too, we really should consider removing the not-so-good DB2 support
altogether..?)
Closing this for now. If someone else thinks it's worth
to fix this, feel free to open new report..and donate some money to
Dan. :)

I was going to close this bug until I saw that there is 3 people out of
3 who are able to reproduce this problem. So, I decided to leave this
open unless otherwise is closed by the developer at php.net because
there are other people out there who are still struggling with this and
are not as fortunate.
The reason I'm going to close this bug is because I'm dumping IBM DB2
and make the move to Relexus Linter (DB software in Russia). It became
appearant that it is a better software than IBM DB2 in many ways.
Linter is smaller, use less maintainance, less headache, cost less,
less problem with license, use less memory and work much faster on the
same machine regardless of whether the table in the database is very
large or not.
Good Luck!
Scott

Lost track of time, so sorry about that. What we're going to need is
more people who are experiencing this problem.
In answer to your question, I'm not sure if it is a driver issue or not
because I have not upgraded the AIX nor have I upgraded the DB2 driver
nor have I upgraded the DB2 software. I'm waiting for version 9.1 to
come out and buy it, whew, it's a pretty expensive software.
The only thing changes from that time of version 4.0.6 to 4.2.3 was the
inclusion of the '--with-mcrypt' option to the configure command but
this doesn't seem to be the cause of the problem because they are not
related. We had one other user in this bug report who reported this
problem.
So, go ahead and put this bug in inactive status or something until
someone can step forward with the problem. I don't have a solution to
this problem.
Thanks,
Scott
P.S. I have noticed that PHP have a built-in programming script that
allow PHP to create a formatting and datas into a PDF then generate a
PDF file. Maybe PHP developers can do that similar thing by coming up
with some ideas to create a PHP Database or a PHP CVS file that can act
as a database.
The logic shouldn't be too difficult to come up with and it could help
to depend less on the 3rd party database and instead more on the PHP.
It is just an idea but not a bad idea... I would love to hear about it
one day.
