Troubleshooting
Problem
When applying Db2 V11.5 fix pack for Windows to an existing Db2 Copy, it fails with: "Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid."
There is no problem if the fix pack was installed as a new copy. (When [Install New] is selected in DB2 Setup Launchpad.)
Symptom
The Install log is very short, and contains something like this:
DEBUG: Error 2254: Database: Transform: Cannot update row that doesn't exist. Table: Property
1: 2254 2: 3: Property
Error applying transforms. Verify that the specified transform paths are valid.
