Hi , Antonio

My environment:
Win XP SP2 (Japanese),DB2 9 fp3a , ibm_db 0.9.0

I installed “Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86)” and run the ruby script that you described, but I still got the 14001 error.

I re-tried with “Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) SP1″ , it produced same error.

This is error message. (Japanese)
