I have a java client that runs on Unix, and makes connection to db2. The program works fine in java1.5, but it failed to get a connection in java1.6.

Here is the error message.

java.sql.SQLException: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: db2jdbc (A file or directory in the path name does not exist.)
at COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver.<init>(Unknown Source)

Thank you

check classpath to point to driver file

The cause of the issue is the db2 native client libraries are not available to the JVM.

The solution is to use db2 universal driver which does not need native client libraries.
