Specifically:
- An error occurred while initializing the Profile Registry.
The return value is "-2079391743". Contact your technical service
representative. - An error occurred while setting the registry key "SOFTWARE\Microsoft
\MSDTC\XADLL\C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB\BIN\DB2APP.DLL" to "C:
\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB\BIN\DB2APP.DLL". - One or more errors occurred while committing the changes to the
user "DB2". Create or make any changes to this user manually. - An error occurred while creating the instance "DB2". The return
code is "-1918". Create the instance manually using the command
"db2icrt".
So after some research, here is how to fix it:
- Create DAS user (for example db2admin) via Windows as an Administrator
- Execute "db2admin CREATE /USER:db2admin /PASSWORD:*password*"
- Execute "db2admin SETID db2admin"
- Execute "db2icrt -u db2admin DB2" (where DB2 is the instance name)
- Set System Environment Variable "DB2INSTANCE" to your instance name
- Set System Environment Variable "DB2PATH" to "C:\Program Files\IBM\SQLLIB"
- Reboot your machine
- Follow http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r5/topic/com.ibm.db2.luw.qb.server.doc/doc/t0011930.html to add yourself to DB2ADMNS
- Execute "db2set db2comm=tcpip"
- Start your DB2 instance
