Error description

• Running "Configure DB2 .NET Data Provider" GUI tool might fail
  to configure the Windows registry correctly.
  
  PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  
  When running the tool called "Configure DB2 .NET Data
  Provider" under any v9 DB2 installation, it should be able to
  pick up newly installed version of Microsoft .NetFramework
  versions.
  
  Currently, if you upgrade version of .NET Framework to a higher
  version, manual steps needs to be taken before the CLR routines
  would work again. Such operation requires to manually edit
  the Windows Registry with regedit to add new string 9.1.2.DEF.2
  with the value DB2COPY1 in
  hkey_local_Machine\software\ibm\db2\installed copies
  
  The objective of this APAR is to remove the dependency of the
  registry and avoid the necessity to manually edit the registry.
  

Local fix

• Manually add the entry using regedit as described above.
  

Problem summary

• This issue will be addressed in version 9.5
  

Problem conclusion

Temporary fix
