I don't have a AS/400 in my backyard so haven't tested this combination ;)

The exception says something went wrong while calling getTables:

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: [SQL0901] SQL system error.
at com.ibm.as400.access.JDError.throwSQLException(JDError.java:650)
at com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDatabaseMetaData.getTables(AS400JDBCDatabaseMetaData.java:4552)

This is a standard JBDC api call so to answer why it fails you need to look on the AS400 side.

Do you have enough permissions to read jdbc metadata ?
Is the right jdbc metadata module installed ? (that is at least sometime the case with IBM/Db2)
Have you tried setting hibernate.default_schema to your specific schema so only that specific schema will be read ?

Hi Guys.

I'm having the EXACT same problem on my end with DB2 and Hibernate Tools. Please let me know if you find out anything. I am going to start pestering the IBM JDBC driver folks for some answers.

Driver Used: jt400.jar verson 6.4 (latest and greatest). I've also tried an older jt400.jar. Same problem.
Database: DB2 V5R3M0

org.hibernate.exception.GenericJDBCException: Could not get list of tables from database. Probably a JDBC driver problem.

says this:

"For iSeries Access ODBC: Server machine (function) check error

Probable cause:

Another, previously reported error has prevented the processing of a SQL statement. The previous error is logged only in the i5/OS™ job log and is not returned to the ODBC application. You must locate and retrieve the job log to identify and resolve the problem.

To find the job log, open a PC5250 emulation session and issue a WRKSPLF where user is the iSeries user profile used on the ODBC connection. However, in some cases the joblog is found using WRKSPLF QUSER. For example, it is necessary to use WRKSPLF QUSER to find the associated joblog when the prestart jobs fail to start."

So let us know what that log says...

I worked with our DBA. Turns out new DB2 instance created from copy of production had a corrupted SQL package. He found this looking through log files of my server side session. He deleted package and it gets auto refreshed somehow. Problem is now fixed. Just thought I might leave this for others out there with the same problem.

thanks - then the exception matched reality! :)
