DataDeploy Setup

Hi

I am trying to set up datadeploy (5.2.1) with TS 5.0.1 for MetaData only to a DB2 database. In the iwddd.log I get a series of messages showing the correct config, base tabel names, filelist etc. then it shows this: ERROR: Unable to determine operation mode.

1. Does anyone know what that error message means?

2. Does anyone have simple instructions for what needs to be set up for DD for metadata and is willing to share them?

Many thanks for any help....

looks like something is missing in your config file. take a look at the some of the simple examples of a DD config file in ddhome/conf or in the DD Admin Guide. If you still can't figure it out, post your DD config file to the forum....

I attach the current mdc_dd.cfg file - but it has been changed several times atttempting to get it to work - so may be quite wide of the mark! Thanks for any guidance you can give.

I have gone back to basics and generated the system default using mdc_ddcfg.template and database.xml. It generated a new mdc_dd.cfg file which looks more hopeful. It now gets as far as trying to connect to DB2. It fails with these errors (which we are now investigating - probably to do with the DB2 subsystem setup for JDBC)

This error indicates that the JDBC driver for DB2 under ddhome/lib isn't the right one for your DB2 version.

I just ran into the same issue and apparently the JDBC driver that ships with Data Deploy 5.5.2 is not compatible with DB2 v. 7.2. To fix the compatibility issue I put a copy of the JDBC driver that ships with DB2 in the data deploy directories. I replaced dd-home\lib\db2java_71_nt.zip and dd-home\httpd\webapps\ddui\web-inf\lib\db2java_71_nt.jar with db2java.zip. This appears to have fixed my connection issues.
