If a DB2 database is used, ProcMan needs to be able to communicate with the DB2 database. Therefore the DB2 PHP Extension needs to be activated.
To activate the extension, open the installation directory of HWF (c:/HORIZONT/hwf/php/php.d/). Open the file ibm_db2.ini with an editor. To activate the extension, row 6 must not be commented out. If you make changes to the file, the HORIZONT Apache Service needs to be restarted. See the picture below.
How to check if the extension is active:
Open (user: admin, password: <empty>), the php info window should appear which shows all information about the PHP/Apache/HWF installation. Scroll down and search for the entry ibm_db2 under the section PHP Extensions. If you can find an entry for ibm_db2, the extension is active. See the picture below.
