I have just successfully installed DB2 8.2 under SLES8.2 and when
trying to create a new database I get the following error:


db2inst1@pjbrlnx:~> db2start
SQL6036N START or STOP DATABASE MANAGER command is already in
progress.
db2inst1@pjbrlnx:~> db2 create db lnxkaka on /ges
SQL1032N No start database manager command was issued. SQLSTATE=57019
db2inst1@pjbrlnx:~>


What is this about ??? Yes, I know the dbm must be started and I always
re-issue once again the db2start command but then again the most I
execute the db2 create command, the most it says no start database
command was issued with no further details. I have tried restarting db2 and even the whole computer but it makes no difference.


Help, please !!

some process is present that should not or another process is missing
first try ipclean to kill all processes
try ps -ef |grep db2sys and kill these processes
try db2start ..
finally : logon as root : cd /..db2../instance/db2iupdt instance and check that no error is reflected..
