Error description
The CLI keyword setting PATCH1=1 is used in DB2 UDB Version 7 to replace COUNT(expression) with COUNT(*) in SQL queries. This setting has not been available in DB2 UDB Version 8. The setting is a workaround for applications that use COUNT(expression) in SQL queries with DB2 servers that do not support this syntax. For example, a query generated by Microsoft Access might contain the following syntax: SELECT COL1, COUNT(1) FROM TAB1 WHERE ... DB2 Version 7 on z/OS does not support the COUNT(1) syntax, thus returns error SQL0111N (column function does not include a column name). With PATCH1=1 set in the db2cli.ini file on the Version 7 client, the query is changed to: SELECT COL1, COUNT(*) FROM TAB1 WHERE ... This syntax is accepted by DB2 z/OS Version 7 and no error occurs. The PATCH1=1 setting has not been available in DB2 UDB Version 8. This APAR will track the fact that support for this CLI keyword setting is being added to DB2 UDB version 8.
