I'm having some trouble getting a JDBC connection to my DB2 database from within Eclipse.

I am using:
- Eclipse Galileo 3.5.1
- DB2 9.5.2
- JDBC 3.0
- type 4 driver (com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver)
- Windows XP

Files db2jcc.jar, sqlj.zip, and db2jcc_license_cu.jar are listed under Referenced Libraries in the project.

This is my code:
try {
this.connection = DriverManager.getConnection(this.url, this.login, this.password);
}
catch (SQLException sql_excp) {
String msg = "Encountered SQLException on connect to url " + this.url + "."; //$NON-NLS-1$ //$NON-NLS-2$
this.logger.logp(Level.SEVERE, this.CLASS_NAME, METHOD_NAME, msg, sql_excp);
System.exit(16);
}

The database, Resume, exists in DB2 and I can query it with the DB2 Command Editor. The following two lines exist in my services file in Windows:
db2j_DB2 55000/tcp
db2c_DB2 50000/tcp


The error is:
4-Feb-2010 9:54:36 AM com.foo.resume2010.References connectToDatabase()
SEVERE: Encountered SQLException on connect to url jdbc:db2://server:50000/Resume.

This is my first time setting up DB2/JDBC/Eclipse on a computer in several years. This version of DB2 has some apparent changes to DB2 Version 8, which is what I was using previously. I've gone through the DB2 manuals but can't find my mistake there.

Can anyone see what I've done wrong?

I created a small test program based on your code snippet, and I was
able to connect to a DB2 v9.5 server without any problem. Of course I
had to add the following code ahead of the try/catch block containing
the getConnection:

try {
Class.forName("com.ibm.db2.jcc.DB2Driver").newInstance();
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}

The error message indicates a problem connecting to "server" at port
50000, so please check your connection URL.

You were absolutely right: it was the URL.

I was using:
db2:jdbc://server:50000/Resume

I thought, from the example I'd seen, that I had to use the literal 'server' but what I actually needed was a specific server name. Since my database is on the same computer as my Eclipse environment, I changed the URL to:

db2:jdbc://localhost:50000/Resume

Now everything works fine! Thanks VERY much for clearing that up!
