IBM BPM to DB2 - You WILL respect my authority

Can you say "Doh" ? I bet you can.

I'm building a multi-Deployment Environment IBM BPM Advanced 8.5.5 environment today, with one DE hosting Process Center and another DE hosting Process Server. Why, because I can / want to / need to :-)

So I hit this problem AGAIN: -

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/bootstrapProcessServerData.sh -clusterName AppCluster

Bootstraping data into cluster AppCluster

WASX7357I: By request, this scripting client is not connected to any server process. Certain configuration and application operations will be available in local mode.
java.lang.Exception: java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException

Yes, that cost me (cough) an hour or so of faffing about, before i re-visited THIS post on MY blog: -


In essence, I was connected from BPM to DB2 using db2user1 which did NOT have adequate permissions to insert/update data inside the tables :-(

db2 grant dbadm on database to user db2user1

at which point everything started working.

To make it even worse, I then hit something very similar with the Support Cluster (SupCluster) which threw these exceptions up: -

SystemOut.log

The first set of errors looked the most severe; the second set immediately nailed it - yes, it was the SAME DARN ANSWER :-(

db2 grant dbadm on database to user db2user1

Yes, again, once I changed the grants, everything just magically started working :-)

Visual Studio Code - Wow 🙀

Why did I not know that I can merely hit [cmd] [p]  to bring up a search box allowing me to search my project e.g. a repo cloned from GitHub...
