When trying to pull data from a DB2 database via the Input Data tool, the following error occurs:

 

Connection Error:
ERROR [08001] [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL30082N Security processing failed with reason "15" ('PROCESSING FAILURE'). SQLSTATE=08001.

  • Alteryx Designer
    • All Versions
  • DB2 ODBC Driver
    • Version 11.1


 

SQLSTATE = 08001 indicates the client is unable to establish connection due to:
  • Permissions issue.
  • Firewall issue.


1. Delete the existing DSN for DB2.

2. Re-open Alteryx Designer with the Run As Administrator option.

3. Create a new System DSN for DB2. If the DSN tests OK, re-test pulling data from the Input Data tool.

If the DSN doesn't test OK; reconfigure the Windows firewall on the DB2 server per the IBM KB article.
