Why am I getting the error 58031 while connecting to DB2 within SSIS package?

Question

Hi I am trying connect to DB2 but it is giving an error as

 [UDB Source [1]] Error: IBM.Data.DB2.DB2Exception: ERROR [58031] [IBM] SQL1031N The database directory cannot be found on the indicated file system. SQLSTATE=58031 

It is an SSIS package where I am using a script component to connect to DB2.but it is not openning the connection.

My piece of code is

string dbName = "GRTST";
string uid = "c001";
string pwd = "winter1";

DB2Connection conn = new DB2Connection();
conn.ConnectionString = "DataBase=" + dbName + ";" + "Uid=" + uid + ";" +"Pwd="+ pwd + ";";

conn.Open();

The error description is

[UDB Source [1]] Error: IBM.Data.DB2.DB2Exception: ERROR [58031] [IBM] SQL1031N The database directory cannot be found on the indicated file system. SQLSTATE=58031

at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.HandleUserException(Exception e) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ScriptComponentHost.PrimeOutput(Int32 outputs, Int32[] outputIDs, PipelineBuffer[] buffers) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostPrimeOutput(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper100 wrapper, Int32 outputs, Int32[] outputIDs, IDTSBuffer100[] buffers, IntPtr ppBufferWirePacket)

Please provide me your valuable suggestion so that I can move forward.

Issue in question:

The issue in the question is that you have not specified the server to which you would like to connect in the connection string. Following link shows how to formulate a DB2 connection string:

Connection strings for IBM DB2

Appropriate way to connect to databases within SSIS:

Having said that, what you are trying to do in the question is not an appropriate way to connect to a database. You should create a data source at the SSIS project level or a connection manager within the SSIS package to connect to your DB2 data source. Following links describe how to connect to a DB2 data source using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for DB2 .
