Hi Joe;
I'd encourage you to use the DB2 type 4 driver (db2cc.jar - don't forget
the license file too). We have had no issues with setup/config.
I have had a number of issues with db2java.zip, but got around most of
them by renaming the db2java.zip file to db2java.jar. This seems to make
alot of apps (including BIRT and Tomcat) much happier.

Pete, does db2cc.jar require any processes to be running on the DB2
server like the .Net driver does?

I am answering my own post. I copied the sole jar file to the BIRT jdbc
driver folder in eclipse. Then I restarted eclipse. Even though I see
all the other drivers from the db2java.zip file -- which no longer is
linked to the BIRT plugin, the type 4 driver now works. The dataset
preview displays the sql results. The simple, tabular report, however,
does not show the results. The dataset is bound to the report table. Is
there a log file I can check?
