TransactionScope won't work with DB2 provider
- by Florin
Hi Everyone,
I've been trying to use TransactionScope with a DB2 database (using DB2 .Net provider v 9.0.0.2 and c# 2.0) which SHOULD be supported according to IBM.
I have tried all the advice i could find on the IBM forums (such as here) to no avail.
I have enabled XA transactions on my XP Sp2 machine, tried also from a Win 2003 Server machine but i consistently get the infamous error:
ERROR [58005] [IBM][DB2/NT] SQL0998N Error occurred during
transaction or heuristic processing.
Reason Code = "16". Subcode =
"2-80004005". SQLSTATE=58005
The windows event log says:
The XA Transaction Manager attempted to load the XA resource
manager DLL. The call to LOADLIBRARY
for the XA resource manager DLL
failed:
DLL=C:\APPS\IBM\DB2v95fp2\SQLLIB\BIN\DB2APP.DLL
File=d:\comxp_sp2\com\com1x\dtc\dtc\xatm\src\xarmconn.cpp
Line=2467.
Also, granted the NETWORK SERVICE user full rights to the folder and dll.
Here's the MSDTC startup message
MS DTC started with the following
settings:
Security Configuration (OFF = 0 and
ON = 1):
Network Administration of Transactions = 0,
Network Clients = 0,
Inbound Distributed Transactions using Native MSDTC Protocol = 0,
Outbound Distributed Transactions using Native MSDTC
Protocol = 0,
Transaction Internet Protocol (TIP) = 0,
XA Transactions = 1
Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Florin
