I am a new user of eclipse BIRT version 2.0.1. I am having trouble with
creating a JDBC datasource with DB2 driver. I followed the installation
procedure -

-----------------------------------------------------------
JDBC Drivers
You will likely want to use your own JDBC driver with BIRT. Use the data
source editor’s JDBC driver management wizard. To start the wizard, open a
BIRT report design, go to the Data Explorer view, right click on “Data
Sources” and select “New Data Source”. Choose “JDBC Data Source” and click
“Next”. In the next dialog, choose “Manage Drivers…” to bring up the
“Manage JDBC Drivers” dialog.

In the “JAR Files” tab, click on “Add…” to add the JAR file required by
your JDBC driver. Then go to the “Driver” tab to confirm that the list of
drivers includes the new drivers added. You may also want to assign a
display name and URL template for the new drivers in this tab.
------------------------------------------------------------ -----------

However I am getting the following error whe I test connection -

Cannot create instance of JDBC Driver class COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver

I have added the db2java.zip in classpath. The database I am trying to
connect id DB2 version 7 on OS 390.

Please let me know if there is something I am missing. Any assistance in
the matter is welcome.

Thanks.
