Problem Note 19989: A floating-point exception error can occur when you use SAS® Data Integration Studio 3.4 to update table metadata in the SAS/ACCESS® Interface to DB2

DetailsHotfixAboutRate It

The following error message can occur when you use SAS Data Integration Studio 3.4 to update table metadata in the SAS/ACCESS Interface to DB2:

ERROR: Invalid Operation.
ERROR: Floating Point Exception

This error is issued after Hot Fix E9D203 has been applied to SAS/ACCESS Interface to DB2.

Outside of the metadata, this issue surfaces as a return of incorrect data. For example, in one test, two rows are returned (one has a missing value for INDEXNAME, which is incorrect).

Select the Hot Fix tab in this note to access the hot fix for this issue.

ATTENTION: This Hot Fix is intended for Unix and Windows customers running the DB2 Client 8.1 Fix Pack 9 or later. Customers running earlier versions of the DB2 Client should only install hot fixes prior to E9D205.
