    Hi isacfmaia,

    What operating system you install Power BI Desktop? Please make sure that you download 64bit driver and install it. In addition, what is the result when you validate IBM Data Server Driver Package installation following the steps in this article?

Hi isacfmaia,

What is the version of your IBM DB2? Based on the above error message, it seems that the driver you install doesn’t apply to your data server. Please choose the right driver according to this guide and make sure the driver you install matches the bitness of Power BI Desktop.

Besides,  you can validate IBM data server driver package installation following  the instructions in this article: http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEPGG_9.7.0/com.ibm.swg.im.dbclient.install.doc/doc/r0058814.html .


Thanks,
Lydia Zhang
