Connection to DB2 mainframe

Question

User-1330949981 posted

Hi,

I have a ASP.NET webapp to test my connection to a DB2 Mainframe.

When I run the webapp from Visual Studio everything is fine and I get the data from the DB2.
But when I run the webapp from IIS, then I get the following error: The 'IBMDADB2' provider is not registered on the local machine. 

This is my connectionstring: 

Provider=IBMDADB2;Database=XXXXXXXXXXXXXX;HOSTNAME=XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX;PROTOCOL=TCPIP;PORT=446;uid=id;pwd=pass;

Kind Regards

Vandeput

It's Windows Server 2008, so there is no ASPNET account.

But I added the application pool user to there groups, but still the same error.
