Problem description: | |
If the file command is not available, db2setup will fail with an unclear message. You can verify if the package containing the file command is available by running command below: # rpm -qf /usr/bin/file file-5.04-6.el6.x86_64 e.g. running db2setup to open the Launchpad shows the following message: "This launchpad is not intended to run on the current platform. Check the product documentation or contact your vendor for more information about supported platforms." After applying the efix, a more valid error message will be displayed: DBI1062E A file set or package name "file" is missing. Explanation: The above file set or package must be installed before using this command. User response: Install the file set or package and then reissue this command. | |
