Re: [udig-devel] Logging in uDig, DB2 JDBC driver setup

When attempting to connect to a DB2 for z/OS database, the connection

Is there anyplace to look for error messages?
The Help menu submit error log has it; as does the about box. The online
help has details...

Log messages are usually enabled via the Eclipse tracing mechanism...
here are docs for wms:

I am not sure what the right entries are for DB2....internally for this
stuff we kick the Java logging when the plugin starts up.
I tried to turn on Java logging by modifying
udig\eclipse\jre\lib\logging.properties but don't get any logging output.
Also, the first time after uDig is installed and a DB2 layer is
selected, a dialog is displayed to select the location of the DB2 JDBC
driver files. How does uDig know that this is the first time?
I think it checks to see if it has preference settings for the DB2 plugin.
To run with DB2 for z/OS, a different license file is required but one
doesn't get a second chance to specify the JDBC driver files. I
manually copied the file to the appropriate place in the uDig install
subdirectory but don't know if this solved the problem since I still
can't connect.
You can go into the preference page for DB2 and choose different drivers
later.
Can I ask what version you are using today David?
