Python is installed in /usr/local/Python-1.5.2 Zope is installed in /usr/local/zope/2-1-2/ I would like to get data on my browser from DB2(Database) trough this linux box. Is there an adapter for this database? Is the ODBC Adapter right for this situation? Thanks in advance for Your help

I looked into using UDB5.2 (DB2 on NT). The big difference between what we are doing and you is the NT vs. Linux issue. <sarcasm on> I'm sure that wont effect the value of this comment at all </sarcasm off> There is no direct DB2 connector that I have found. We went the route of using the ODBC connections. I was only testing the ability to get to some databases for Zope testing purposes. The overall project that this was to be for was put on hold by the client so I can not speak to what kind of volume could have been piped through the connection. I ran into an interesting issue getting the connection through the ODBC up and running. I loaded the UDB5 client and cataloged the databases that I wanted to hit on the local client. I then installed the ODBC components. I then defined a connection through Zope and created a method to grab some data. I spent the better part of the day trying to get Zope to talk to the database. Absolutely no luck. ... and I tried everything in the book including the reboots that NT needs (sort of like giving treats to your dog. ... it gives NT a chance at a change of pace ... then it will work happily for you until it feels it is time for another break) I left late that evening a very frustrated camper. I came back the next day not looking forward to having to figure out the problem. To my surprise, the connection was up and running like a champ. To this day I have no bloody clue as to what happened. Ever since the connection has been as stable as can be on NT. I hope this helps.
