Q:

"connectivity libraries needed are not found" error in IBM Data Studio

UPDATE
I am getting the following error when I try to create a new database in IBM Data Studio v3.1.1.0.
The connectivity libraries that are needed for local or remote non-JDBC operations were not found. To provide these libraries, you can install IBM data server client or a local DB2 server instance.

I have already started the instance using
db2start

command.
After searching exhaustively, I am not able to find any help on the internet regarding this error.

A:

You may need to point IBM Data Studio to the database drivers. They are usually installed with DB2 under /myDB2_InstallationDirectory/SQLLIB/java.
The drivers themselves tend to be

db2jcc.jar
db2jcc_license_cu.jar

There are other drivers in that folder as well, but these two tend to be the main ones for Java (which IBM Data Studio is based on).
