Day 84 - DB2 JDBC Useful Setting

When using the DB2 Command Editor, there's always a lot more error information available than using any other generic database tool.
Why is that, we've inquired.

We've dig a little and we found out that there's a connection string parameter that one can enable that will allow any generic database tool. The parameter is retrieveMessagesFromServerOnGetMessage and must be included in directly in the connection string:

jdbc:db2://{server}:{port}/{database}:retrieveMessagesFromServerOnGetMessage=true;

Please note that the connection string does not follow the standard syntax. It has a : instead of a ;, that is not a mistake, that's relly like that.
