Provides Python interface for connecting to IBM Db2 for LUW and IBM Db2 for z/OS
For more information on the APIs supported by ibm_db, please refer to below link:
https://github.com/ibmdb/python-ibmdb/wiki/APIs
Install Python 3.7 <= 3.12. The minimum python version supported by driver is python 3.7 and the latest version supported is python 3.12.
Please follow detailed installation instructions as documented here: ibm_db Installation on z/OS
Important: The driver for IBM DB2 is not compatible with Apple Silicon and will have to run in emulated mode. Please support this request for an Apple Silicon version of the driver to show IBM that you are interested in a native solution.
Several things might be necessary to get
ibm_dbworking on the Apple Silicon architecture:
- Open new terminal and run command
arch -x86_64 /bin/bash or arch -x86_64 /bin/zsh.- Verify the output of
gcc -vcommand. It should showTarget: x86_64-apple-darwin21in output.- Install Intel Version of Python like: https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.9.11/python-3.9.11-macosx10.9.pkg
- Check output of commands
python --version,which pythonandfile /usr/local/bin/pythoncommands. It should show/usr/local/bin/python: Mach-O 64-bit executable x86_64- Check this link for detailed instructions about installation of ibm_db on MacOS M1/M2 Chip system.
If you face problems due to missing python header files while installing the driver, you would need to install python developer package and retry install. e.g:
zypper install python-devel
or
yum install python-develIf a db2 client or server or dsdriver or clidriver is already installed in the system and user has already set installed path to PATH environment variable, then user need to set environment variable IBM_DB_HOME manaully to the installed path before installing ibm_db.
To verify it, just execute db2level command before installation of ibm_db. If it works, note down the install directory path and set system level environment variable IBM_DB_HOME as install path shown in output of db2level command.
If user has installed clidriver in F:\DSDRIVER and if the "PATH" environment variable has F:\DSDRIVER\bin, then user should also set IBM_DB_HOME to F:\DSDRIVER.
Db2 V11.5.4 clidriver is built with GCC version 8.4.0 and hence you may need to upgrade to this version if you face problems due to old version of the GCC compiler in your environment while loading the ibm_db library.
To install ibm_db from source code after clone from git, or to know the detialed installation steps for various platforms, please check INSTALL document.
You can install the driver using pip as:
pip install ibm_dbThis will install ibm_db and ibm_db_dbi module.
Note:
When we install ibm_db package on Linux, MacOS and Windows, pip install ibm_db command install
prebuilt Wheel package that includes clidriver too and ignores IBM_DB_HOME or IBM_DB_INSTALLER_URL
environment variables if set. Also, auto downloading of clidriver does not happen as clidriver is
already present inside wheel package.
To inforce auto downloading of clidriver or to make setting of environment variable IBM_DB_HOME
effective, install ibm_db from source distribution using below command:
pip install ibm_db --no-binary :all: --no-cache-dirIf you have to use your own URL for clidriver.tar.gz/.zip please set environment variable
IBM_DB_INSTALLER_URL=full_path_of_clidriver.tar.gz/.zipWhen ibm_db get installed from wheel package, you can find clidriver under site_packages directory
of Python. You need to copy license file under site_packages/clidriver/license to be effective, if any.
Note: For windows after installing ibm_db, recieves the below error when we try to import ibm_db :

* Uninstalling the ibm_db driver :
```python
pip uninstall ibm_dbThe ODBC and CLI Driver(clidriver) is automatically downloaded at the time of installation and it is recommended to use this driver. However, if you wish to use an existing installation of clidriver or install the clidriver manually and use it, you can set IBM_DB_HOME environment variable as documented below:
Environment Variables:
IBM_DB_HOME :
Set this environment variable to avoid automatic downloading of the clidriver during installation. You could set this to the installation path of ODBC and CLI driver in your environment.
e.g:
Windows :
set IBM_DB_HOME=C:/Users/userid/clidriver
Other platforms:
export IBM_DB_HOME=/home/userid/clidriverNote: You must need to install ibm_db using command pip install ibm_db --no-binary :all: --no-cache-dir
on Linux, Windows and MacOS to make setting of IBM_DB_HOME effective.
You are required to set the library path to the clidriver under IBM_DB_HOME to pick this version of the ODBC and CLI Driver.
e.g:
Windows:
set LIB=%IBM_DB_HOME%/lib;%LIB%
AIX:
export LIBPATH=$IBM_DB_HOME/lib:$LIBPATH
MAC:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=$IBM_DB_HOME/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
Other platforms:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$IBM_DB_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATHThe ODBC and CLI driver is available for download at Db2 LUW ODBC and CLI Driver. Refer to (License requirements) for more details on the CLI driver for manual download and installation.

TrueYou can enable logging in the ibm_db_dbi module to debug and trace activities. Logging can be directed to the console or a specified file.
To enable logging:
import ibm_db_dbi as dbi
# Log to console
dbi.debug(True)
# Log to a file (e.g., log.txt)
dbi.debug("log.txt")
# stop logging
dbi.debug(False)Calling dbi.debug(True) with boolean True argument will output logs to the console.
Calling dbi.debug("log.txt") will log messages to the specified file (log.txt in this example).
Calling dbi.debug(False) with boolean False argument will stop logging.
Using SSLServerCertificate keywordconnStr = "DATABASE=
> Note the two extra keywords **Security** and **SSLServerCertificate** used in connection string. `SSLServerCertificate` should point to the SSL Certificate from server or an CA signed certificate. Also, `PORT` must be `SSL` port and not the TCPI/IP port. Make sure Db2 server is configured to accept connection on SSL port else `ibm_db` will throw SQL30081N error.
> Value of `SSLServerCertificate` keyword must be full path of a certificate file generated for client authentication.
It normally has `*.arm` or `*.cert` or `*.pem` extension. `ibm_db` do not support `*.jks` format file as it is not a
certificate file but a Java KeyStore file, extract certificate from it using keytool and then use the *.cert file.
> `ibm_db` uses IBM ODBC/CLI Driver for connectivity and it do not support a `*.jks` file as keystoredb as `keystore.jks` is meant for Java applications.
Note that `*.jks` file is a `Java Key Store` file and it is not an SSL Certificate file. You can extract SSL certificate from JKS file using below `keytool` command:keytool -exportcert -alias your_certificate_alias -file client_cert.cert -keystore keystore.jks
Now, you can use the generated `client_cert.cert` as the value of `SSLServerCertificate` in connection string.
> Do not use keyworkds like `sslConnection=true` in connection string as it is a JDBC connection keyword and ibm_db
ignores it. Corresponding ibm_db connection keyword for `sslConnection` is `Security` hence, use `Security=SSL;` in
connection string instead.
> `ibm_db` supports only ODBC/CLI Driver keywords in connection string: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.5?topic=odbc-cliodbc-configuration-keywords
* To connect to dashDB in IBM Cloud, use below connection string:
connStr = "DATABASE=database;HOSTNAME=hostname;PORT=port;PROTOCOL=TCPIP;UID=username;PWD=passwd;Security=SSL";
> We just need to add **Security=SSL** in connection string to have a secure connection against Db2 server in IBM Cloud.
**Note:** You can also create a KeyStore DB using GSKit command line tool and use it in connection string along with other keywords as documented in [DB2 Infocenter](http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSEPGG_11.5.0/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.sec.doc/doc/t0053518.html).
* If you have created a KeyStore DB using GSKit using password or you have got *.kdb file with *.sth file:Using SSLClientKeyStoreDB and SSLClientKeyStoreDBPassword keyword
connStr = "DATABASE=
Using SSLClientKeyStoreDB and SSLClientKeyStash keyword
connStr = "DATABASE=
> If you have downloaded `IBMCertTrustStore` from IBM site, ibm_db will not work with it; you need to
download `Secure Connection Certificates.zip` file that comes for IBM DB2 Command line tool(CLP).
`Secure Connection Certificates.zip` has *.kdb and *.sth files that should be used as the value of
`SSLClientKeystoreDB` and `SSLClientKeystash` in connection string.

## <a name="Licenserequirements"></a>For z/OS and iSeries Connectivity and SQL1598N error
- Connection to `Db2 for z/OS` or `Db2 for i`(AS400) Server using `ibm_db` driver from distributed platforms (Linux, Unix, Windows and MacOS) is not free. It requires either client side or server side license.
- Connection to `Db2 for LUW` Server using `ibm_db` driver is free.
- `ibm_db` returns SQL1598N error in absence of a valid db2connect license. SQL1598N error is returned by the Db2 Server to client.
To suppress this error, Db2 server must be activated with db2connectactivate utility OR a client side db2connect license file must exist.
- Db2connect license can be applied on database server or client side. A **db2connect license of version 11.5** is required for ibm_db.
- For activating server side license, you can purchase either `Db2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System z®` or `Db2 Connect Unlimited Edition for System i®` license from IBM.
- Ask your DBA to run db2connectactivate utility on Server to activate db2connect license.
- If database Server is enabled for db2connect, no need to apply client side db2connect license.
- If Db2 Server is not db2connectactivated to accept unlimited number of client connection, you must need to apply client side db2connect license.
- db2connectactivate utility and client side db2connect license both comes together from IBM in a single zip file.
- Client side db2connect license is a `db2con*.lic` file that must be copied under `clidriver\license` directory.
- If you have a `db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar` file, it will not work for ibm_db. `db2jcc_license_cisuz.jar` is a db2connect license file for Java Driver. For non-Java Driver, client side db2connect license comes as a file name `db2con*.lic`.
- If environment variable `IBM_DB_HOME` or `IBM_DB_INSTALLER_URL` is not set, `ibm_db` automatically downloads open source driver specific clidriver from https://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/data/db2/drivers/odbc_cli and save as `site_packages\clidriver`. Ignores any other installation.
- If `IBM_DB_HOME` or `IBM_DB_INSTALLER_URL` is set, you need to have same version of db2connect license as installed db2 client. Check db2 client version using `db2level` command to know version of required db2connect license. The license file should get copied under `$IBM_DB_HOME\license` directory.
- If you do not have db2connect license, contact [IBM Customer Support](https://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/?language=en_US) to buy db2connect license. Find the `db2con*.lic` file in the db2connect license shared by IBM and copy it under `.../site_packages/clidriver/license` directory or `$IBM_DB_HOME\license` directory (if IBM_DB_HOME is set), to be effective.
- To know more about license and purchasing cost, please contact [IBM Customer Support](https://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/?language=en_US).
- To know more about server based licensing viz db2connectactivate, follow below links:
* [Activating the license certificate file for Db2 Connect Unlimited Edition](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.5?topic=li-activating-license-certificate-file-db2-connect-unlimited-edition).
* [Unlimited licensing using db2connectactivate utility](https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/db2/11.1?topic=edition-db2connectactivate-server-license-activation-utility).
#### Troubleshooting SQL1598N Error:
If you have copied db2con*.lic file under clidriver/license directory, but still getting SQL1598N Error; try below options:
* `cd clidriver/bin` directory and run `./db2level` command. Make sure you have the db2connect license of same major and minor version as of clidriver.
* Make sure the user running python program has read permission for license file.
* Make sure the user running python program has read-write permission for `clidriver/license` and `clidriver/cfgcache` directories as license check utility need to create some cache files under `cfgcache` and `license` directories.
* Validate your license file and connectivity using below db2cli command:db2cli validate -connstring "connection string as used in python program" -displaylic
OR
db2cli validate -database "dbname:hostname:port" -userid dbuser -passwd dbpasswd -connect -displaylic
If you intend to install the clidriver manually, Following are the details of the client driver versions that you can download from [CLIDRIVER](https://public.dhe.ibm.com/ibmdl/export/pub/software/data/db2/drivers/odbc_cli/) to be able to connect to databases on non-LUW servers. You would need the client side license file as per Version for corresponding installation.:

## Some common issues
## 1. Installation Issues for missing python.h file
### Always use the latest pip
```python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip```
### Install the package python3-dev that delivers the python.h header fileFor RHEL use yum install python3-dev
For Ubuntu use apt-get install python3-dev
* Once the above steps works fine, try re-installing ibm_db.
## 2. SQL30081N Error
If connection fails with SQL30081N error - means `ibm_db` installation is correct and there is some issue with connection string. Please check database connection info and use correct connection string. If you are using SSL connection, port must be SSL port and connection string must have `Security=SSL;` and `SSLServerCertificate=<full path of cert.arm file>;`.
## 3. Issues with MAC OS X
* If `import ibm_db` fails with `Symbol not found: ___cxa_throw_bad_array_new_length` error or `malloc` error: Please follow instructions as documented [here](INSTALL.md#symbolerror).
* If you run into errors for libdb2.dylib as below:
```python
>>> import ibm_db
Traceback (most recent call last):

Referenced from: /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/ibm_db.cpython-35m-darwin.so
Reason: image not found
You would need to set DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to lib folder as per the installation location of clidriver in your environment. Assuming the driver is installed at /usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/clidriver, you can set the path as:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib/python3.5/site-packages/clidriver/lib:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
If the issue is not resolved even after setting DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH, you could refer: MAC OS Hints and Tips

set PATH=<clidriver_folder_path>\bin\amd64.VC12.CRT;%PATH%In case of the error seen while building wheel use the following flag along with ibm_db for installation
To install the package ibm_db it is necessary at first to install the build dependency package - wheel:
pip3 install wheel
Install ibm_db with the pip flag --no-build-isolation:
pip3 install ibm_db --no-build-isolationIf you have installed ibm_db on IBM i and need help, please open an issue here.
If you have installed ibm_db on distributed platform and want to connect to AS400 server, you must have to use db2connect license. ibm_db do not work with IBM i Access driver.
Tests displaying Python ibm_db driver code examples are located in the ibm_db_tests directory. A valid config.py will need to be created to configure your Db2 settings. A config.py.sample exists that can be copied and modified for your environment.
For example, by sourcing the following ENV variables:
For Linux
export DB2_USER=<Username>
export DB2_PASSWD=<Password>For windows
set DB2_USER=
* ORIf not using environment variables, update user and password information in config.json file.
The config.py should look like this:
```python
test_dir = 'ibm_db_tests' # Location of testsuite file (relative to current directory)
file_path = 'config.json'
with open(file_path, 'r') as file:
data = json.load(file)
database = data['database'] # Database to connect to
hostname = data['hostname'] # Hostname
port = data['port'] # Port Number
env_not_set = False
if 'DB2_USER' in os.environ:
user = os.getenv('DB2_USER') # User ID to connect with
else:
user = data['user']
env_not_set = True
if 'DB2_PASSWD' in os.environ:
password = os.getenv('DB2_PASSWD') # Password for given User ID
else:
password = data['password']
env_not_set = True
if env_not_set == True:
warnings.warn("Warning: Environment variable DB2_USER or DB2_PASSWD is not set.")
print("Please set it before running test file and avoid")
print("hardcoded password in config.json file." )Point the database to mydatabase as created by the following command.
The tests that ibm_db driver uses depends on a UTF-8 database. This can be created by running:
CREATE DATABASE mydatabase USING CODESET UTF-8 TERRITORY USSome of the tests utilize XML functionality only available in version 9 or later of Db2. While Db2 v8.x is fully supported, two of the tests (test_195.py and test_52949.py) utilize XML functionality. These tests will fail on version 8.x of Db2.
In order to run the entire python driver testsuite on Linux, run this command at the command prompt:
python ibmdb_tests.pyTo run a single test, set the environment variable, SINGLE_PYTHON_TEST, to the test filename you would like to run, followed by the previous command.
In order to run the entire python driver testsuite on Windows, run this command at the command prompt:
python ibmdb_tests.pyTo run a single test, set the environment variable, SINGLE_PYTHON_TEST, to the test filename you would like to run, followed by the previous command.
If trusted context is not set up, there will be two failures related to trusted context. When thick client has been used then additional three failures related to create, recreate DB.
ibm_db do not work with arm64 version of python, use x64 version.
