Hi, I am trying to connect from a asp.net application to iSeries DB2 UDB. Although I can connect easily specifying the connection parameters manually like

DataSource=10.1.1.2;userid=mike;password=test123;L ibraryList=test,*USRLIBL;DefaultCollection=TEST;Co nnectionTimeout=60;" providerName="IBM.Data.DB2.iSeries"

But whenever I try to bind any datasource inside my application lets say a SQL data source with a new connection then I get a communication error.

Error [08001] [IBM] SQL30081N. A communication error has been detected. Communication API being used 'SOCKETS'. Location where the error was detected "10.1.1.2". Communication function detecting the error "connect". Protocol specific error code "10061".

Please help guys as I have to connect all my gridviews inside my application and manually doing that would take ages.

10061 means connection refused
see infocenter for details

Hi, thanks for the reply. I know its a connection refused error. But I am able to connect manually throught code. However just when I try to connect the datasource by configuring a connection visually then this problem comes
Also where is the infocenter ? We have access to window session(green screen) and I Series navigator atm.

Hey ASP_Crazy_guy, hopefully you found the answer despite the LUW response to an iSeries question (NOT the same animal - as I'm sure you know).

If you did get the answer, can you post it?
