Errors observed when verifying database connection :
Validate
Content Manager database connection]
1. [ ERROR ] The database
connection failed.
2. [ ERROR ] Content Manager failed to start because
it could not load driver "COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver.
Solution :
The LIBPATH environment variable on AIX (LD_LIBRARY_PATH
on Solaris or Linux) should point to the DB2 lib32 directory.
Verify
that all the DB2 cognos user environment variables are present and pointing to
the DB2 32 bit library files. Cognos 8 does not support 64 bit DB2 library
files.
