Help establishing a DB2 connection in Xpediter

Postby MFFLCrime » Sat Aug 04, 2012 8:51 pm

Hi All,

I am trying to use Xpediter for a DB2 program. I am able to display the source and navigate through it, however, when I execute the first SQL command, the program abends with SQLCODE = -927. I believe it is because I am not able to establish a DB2 connection because the options to specify whether it is a DB2 test, the Plan and DB2 subsystem are not available in the ISPF Xpediter panel.

Is there a way to do this from within the program?

Please help! I have unsuccessfully searched for an answer everywhere.

Thanks

Double-check that there is no DB2 entry on you entry panels. Double-check that there is not a separate menu item for Xpediter/DB2. If nothing then check with your colleagues to see if they can Xpedite a DB2 program. If that fails then ask your Xpediter support - it may be that the DB2 option has not been installed.
The problem I have is that people can explain things quickly but I can only comprehend slowly.

Suggest you talk to your site-support group or some senior around. These set-ups are pretty site-specific and getting a to-the-point help via a Forum is very thin...

Hi All, I was able to resolve my issues in Xpediter and I am now able to debug DB2 programs.

And the problem was? (It may help other people searching for the same reason as you)

My problem was not having the panel with the options to enter whether I was doing a DB2 test and having the ability to enter the Plan and DB2 Subsystem. I learned to avoid having to do this using the BATCH functionality.

Thank you for that. It seems like there may be a setup problem with your installation. Check with your Xpediter support people.
