Description
Hello,
I'm trying to connect with a IBM DB2 i-Series database. Connection works from other client like PyCharm or IBM Data Studio, but I do not like those and I'd like to use dbeaver, but that does not work.
Version 26.1.1.202606211757
DBeaver Version
CE 26.1.1.202606211757
Operating System
Ununtu 24
Database and driver
- ibm db2 i series driver
- custom ibm db2 driver which uses the exact jt400.jar with which other client work
Steps to reproduce
- create connection to an ibm db2 iseries db
- configure either sock or ssh proxy
- connection just times out (for me at least)
Additional context
- configure either sock or ssh proxy
