Hello Richard..
Now I just tested the all lowercase (sample) and all uppercase (SAMPLE)
name of database
and it works or both the cases.
It showed some strange behaviours..sometime back.
AN hour ago I tried to compile using all lowercases and it didn't find the
database.
then I opted for all Uppercase DATABASE name and it worked...
Hence I would Like to take one of my point back that
Database name should be defined in Uppercase. (wrong >>> either all upper
or all lower)
Thanks for invoking this point...

It was strange to me too. Unlike other databases DB2 requires DB2 Client
to be installed on machine running application server (here: tomcat);
then you have to catalog the (possibly remote) database locally and you
can connect to it using the name it was cataloged as.
