Hi Sahil,

Did you check the system requirements here?

For IBM Database the requirements are:

DB2 for iSeries V6R1 or higher

The installation of the IBM i Access Client Solutions - Windows Application Package software is required in all Front-End and Deployment Controller server machines.

The use of double-byte characters with DB2 databases is not supported.

You're in Outsystem's Cloud, so I think you need to contact the support to check/install the Windows Application Package in your Front-End and Deployment Controller server.

Cheers,

Luís
