DB2 is not configured properly
A failure might occur during DB2® database configuration. Understand the probable causes of the problem and follow the steps to troubleshoot.
Note: Before you configure the database, be sure that the environment
variable DB2COMM is not set.
One of the following reasons might be the cause of a failure that
occurs during database configuration:
- The user ID was not set up correctly.
- The permissions for the user ID are not correct.
- Remnants of a previous database (database or table space directories) with the name you specified for the database are present on the system.
- There is not enough space in the location you specified.
- The location is not accessible.
Check to see whether there are problems with any of these items,
and then try to configure again after you fix the problem.
Note: If
you use the Configuration Tool to configure and
configuration fails, the Configuration Tool does
some cleanup. This cleanup can sometimes fix the problem. If you do
not find any of the problems in the list, try configuring again.
