I want to install DB2 UDW in my machine for learning purpose but I am having a hard time configuring the local instance. Any help would be highly appreciated.
I installed DB2 express edition -c . I have selected all the default choices. I am trying to connect using IBM data Studio 4.1, In the "DB2 first Steps" GUI I have chosen to create SAMPLE Database. I am getting the below error
Creating database "SAMPLE" on path "C:"... Existing "SAMPLE" database found... The "-force" option was not specified... Attempt to create the database "SAMPLE" failed 'db2sampl' processing complete.
I tried connecting from Data Studio using the following options
Database- SAMPLE Port- 50000 host - localhost
Error I am getting
Explanation: An attempt was made to access a database that was not found, has not been started, or does not support transactions. User response: Ensure that the specified database name exists in the system database directory. If the database name does not exist in the system database directory, either the database does not exist or the database name has not been cataloged. If needed, issue a db2start command and then resubmit the current command. SQL4499N A fatal error occurred that resulted in a disconnect from the data source. SQLSTATE: 08004
Problem is I am having zero knowledge in DB2. If I need to run db2start command from where I should run this? Please help
