Problems accessing a DB2 database
What kind of problem are you having accessing your DB2 database?
- SQL0567N "DB2ADMIN" is not a valid authorization ID. SQLSTATE=42602.
- SQL0805N Package "package name" was not found.
- SQL0805N Package "NULLID.SQLLC300" was not found. SQLSTATE=51002.
- SQLException, with ErrorCode -99,999 and SQLState 58004, with Java "StaleConnectionException: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception... [IBM][CLI Driver] CLI0119E Unexpected system failure. SQLSTATE=58004" using WAS40-type data source.
- Error message java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException: com.ibm.ws.exception.WsException... DSRA0023E: The DataSource implementation class "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2XADataSource" could not be found. when trying to access a DB2 database
- CLI0119E System error. SQLSTATE=58004 - DSRA8100 : Unable to get a XAconnection, or DSRA0011E: Exception: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception... [IBM][CLI Driver] CLI0119E Unexpected system failure. SQLSTATE=58004.
- COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception... [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0911N The current transaction has been rolled back because of a deadlock or timeout. Reason code "2". SQLSTATE=40001.
- "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource" could not be found for data source (data_source).
SQL0567N "DB2ADMIN " is not a valid authorization ID. SQLSTATE=42602
If you encounter this error when attempting to access a DB2 Universal Database (UDB):
- Verify that your user name and password in the data source properties page in the administrative console are correct.
- Ensure that the user ID and password do not contain blank characters before, in between, or after.
SQL0805N Package package-name was not found
Possible reasons for these exceptions:
- If the package name is NULLID.SQLLC300, see SQL0805N Package "NULLID.SQLLC300" was not found. SQLSTATE=51002. for the reason.
- You are attempting to use an XA-enabled JDBC driver on a DB2 database that is not XA-ready.
To correct the problem on a DB2 Universal Database (UDB), run this one-time procedure, using the db2cmd interface while connected to the database in question:
- DB2 bind @db2ubind.lst blocking all grant public
- DB2 bind @db2cli.lst blocking all grant public
The db2ubind.lst and db2cli.lst files are in the bnd directory of your DB2 installation root. Run the commands from that directory.
SQL0805N Package "NULLID.SQLLC300" was not found. SQLSTATE=51002
This error can occur because:
- The underlying database was dropped and recreated.
- DB2 was ugpraded and its packages are not rebound correctly.
To resolve this problem, rebind the DB2 packages by running the db2cli.lst script found in the bnd directory. For example: db2>@db2cli.lst.
SQLException, with ErrorCode -99,999 and SQLState 58004, with Java "StaleConnectionException: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception... [IBM][CLI Driver] CLI0119E Unexpected system failure. SQLSTATE=58004", when using WAS40-type data source
An unexpected system failure usually occurs when running in XA mode two-phase(commit). Among the many possible causes are:
- An invalid username or password was provided.
- The database name is incorrect.
- Some DB2 packages are corrupted.
To determine whether you have a user name or password problem, look in the db2diag.log file to view the actual error message and SQL code. A message like the following example, with an SQLCODE of -1403, indicates an invalid user ID or password
2002-07-26-14.19.32.762905 Instance:db2inst1 Node:000 PID:9086(java) Appid:*LOCAL.db2inst1.020726191932 XA DTP Support sqlxa_open Probe:101 DIA4701E Database "POLICY2" could not be opened for distributed transaction processing. String Title: XA Interface SQLCA PID:9086 Node:000 SQLCODE = -1403To resolve these problems:
- Correct your user name and password. If you specify your password on the GUI for the data source, ensure that the user name and password you specify on the bean are correct. The user name and password you specify on the bean overwrite whatever you specify when creating the data source.
- Use the correct database name.
- Rebind the packages (in the bnd directory) as follows
db2connect to dbname c:\SQLLIB\bnd>DB2 bind @db2ubind.lst blocking all grant public c:\SQLLIB\bnd>DB2 bind @db2cli.lst blocking all grant public- Ensure that the \WebSphere\AppServer\properties\wsj2cdpm.properties file has the right user ID and password.
Error message java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException: com.ibm.ws.exception.WsException... DSRA0023E: The DataSource implementation class "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2XADataSource" could not be found. when trying to access a DB2 database
One possible reason for this exception is that a user is attempting to use a JDBC 2.0 DataSource, but DB2 is not JDBC 2.0-enabled. This situation frequently happens with new installations of DB2 because DB2 provides separate drivers for JDBC 1.X and 2.0, with the same physical file name. By default, the JDBC 1.X driver is on the class path.
To confirm this problem:
- On Windows systems, look for the inuse file in the java12 directory in your DB2 installation root. If the file missing, you are using the JDBC 1.x driver.
- On UNIX systems, check the class path for your data source. If the class path does not point to the db2java.zip file in the java12 directory, you are using the JDBC 1.x driver.
To correct this problem:
- On Windows systems, stop DB2. Run the usejdbc2.bat file from the java12 directory in your DB2 instalation root. Run this file from a command line to verify that it completes successfully.
- On UNIX systems, change the class path for your data source to point to the db2java.zip file in the java12 directory of your DB2 installation root.
CLI0119E System error. SQLSTATE=58004 - DSRA8100 : Unable to get a XAconnection or DSRA0011E: Exception: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception... [IBM][CLI Driver] CLI0119E Unexpected system failure. SQLSTATE=5800
If you encounter this error when attempting to access a DB2 Universal Database (UDB) data source:
- Check your user name and password custom properties in the data source properties page in the administrative console. Verify that they are correct.
- Ensure the user ID and password do not contain any blank characters, before, in between, or after.
- Check that the WAS.policy file exists for the application, for example, D:\WebSphere\AppServer\installedApps\markSection.ear\META-INF\was.policy.
- View the entire exception listing for an underlying SQL error, and look it up using the DBM vendor message reference.
If you encounter this error while running DB2 on Red Hat Linux, the max queues system wide parameter is too low to support DB2 while it acquires the necessary resources to complete the transaction. When this problem exists, the exceptions J2CA0046E and DSRA0010E can precede the exception DSRA8100E.
To correct this problem, edit the /proc/sys/kernal/msgmni file to increase the value of the max queues system wide parameter to a value greater than 128.
COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0911N The current transaction has been rolled back because of a deadlock or timeout. Reason code "2". SQLSTATE=40001
This problem is probably an application-caused DB2 deadlock, particularly if you see an error similar to the following when accessing a DB2 data source
ERROR CODE: -911 COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver][DB2/NT] SQL0911N The current transaction has been rolled back because of a deadlock or timeout. Reason code "2". SQLSTATE=40001To diagnose the problem:
- Execute these DB2 commands:
- db2 update monitor switches using LOCK ON
- db2 get snapshot for LOCKS on dbName >
The directory_name\lock_snapshot.log now has the DB2 lock information.
- Turn off the lock monitor by executing: db2 update monitor switches using LOCK OFF
To verify that you have a deadlock:
- Look for an application handle that has a lock-wait status, and then look for the ID of the agent holding lock to verify the ID of the agent.
- Go to that handle to verify it has a lock-wait status, and the ID of the agent holding the lock for it. If it is the same agent ID as the previous one, then you know that you have a circular lock (deadlock).
To resolve the problem...
- Examine your application and use a less restrictive isolation level if no concurrency access is needed.
- Use caution when changing the accessIntent value to move to a lower isolation level. This change can result in data integrity problems.
- For DB2/UDB Version 7.2 and earlier releases, you can set the DB2_RR_TO_RS flag from the DB2 command line window to eliminate unnecessary deadlocks, such as when the accessIntent defined on the bean method is too restrictive, for example, PessimisticUpdate. The DB@_RR_TO_RS setting has two impacts...
- If RR is your chosen isolation level, it is effectively downgraded to RS.
- If you choose another isolation level, and the DB2_RR_TO_RS setting is on, a scan skips over rows that are deleted but not committed, even though the row might qualify for the scan. The skipping behavior affects the RR, Read Stability (RS), and Cursor Stability (CS) isolation levels.
For example, consider the scenario where transaction A deletes the row with column1=10 and transaction B does a scan where column1>8 and column1<12. With DB2_RR_TO_RS off, transaction B waits for transaction A to commit or rollback. If transaction A rolls back, the row with column1=10 is included in the result set of the transaction B query. With DB2_RR_TO_RS on, transaction B does not wait for transaction A to commit or rollback. Transaction B immediately receives query results that do not include the deleted row. Setting DB2_RR_TO_RS effectively changes locking behavior, thus avoiding deadlocks.
"COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource" could not be found for data source ([data-source-name])"
This error usually occurs when the class path of the DB2 JDBC driver is set correctly to ${DB2_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH}/db2java.zip but the environment variable DB2_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH is not set.
To confirm this problem...
- Go to the Manage WebSphere Variables panel.
- Select Environment to verify that there is no entry for the variable DB2_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH.
To correct this problem: Add the variable DB2_JDBC_DRIVER_PATH with value equal to the directory path containing the db2java.zip file.
