[Mono-devel-list] IBM DB2 db2_36.so problem

[Pablo Cardona]

Thanks for your answer, I've installed DB2 Runtime Clients V8.1 and
now I have the libdb2.so library, I've made the /sbin/ldconfig and
renamed libdb2.so to libdb2_36.so to match it with the not found
error, and it seems that the cli works properly, but another exception
has come:

Unhandled Exception: IBM.Data.DB2.DB2Exception: No error information
in <0x000a5> IBM.Data.DB2.DB2ClientUtils:DB2CheckReturn (Int16 sqlRet,

Could it be because the db2 version of the remote db is 7.x and the
db2 I'm using is 8.1??

Thanks for the help.

Pablo.
