Try this again I apparently found a keyboard shortcut to send the message in hotmail......
Trying to set up a connection to a remote DB2 server in perl to query some data. Followed the directions here:http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?rs=71&uid=swg21297335 Then searching the web I came up with this chunk of code: use warnings;use strict;use DBI;use DBD::DB2; print("Operating System = ",$^O,"\n");print("Perl Binary = ",$^X,"\n");print("Perl Version = ",$],"\n");print("DBI Version = ",$DBI::VERSION,"\n");print("DBD::DB2 Version = ",$DBD::DB2::VERSION,"\n\n");print("env = ",$ENV{ DB2INSTANCE},"\n"); my @driver_names = DBI->available_drivers;print(join("\n",@driver_names),"\n"); print("I am here\n"); my @dataSources = DBI->data_sources('DB2');print(@dataSources,"\n"); print("I am there\n"); exit(0); When I run this I get a popup that says the "Perl interpreter has stopped working" and a button to close the program. on the console I get:Operating System = MSWin32Perl Binary = c:\strawberry\perl\bin\perl.exePerl Version = 5.018001DBI Version = 1.631DBD::DB2 Version = 1.85 env = DB2ADODB2DBMExamplePFileGoferODBCPgProxySQLiteSpongemysqlI am here So the failure is when I try and get the DB2 data sources... Just have no idea even where to start looking for the issue since there is no error message. Is there a log file with more information on what might have died?
