DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

When running CLP with command input from a file and the file 
contains /* */ comments on separate lines causes the command to 
fail silently on Solaris with DB2 9.7. 
 
A file containing the lines: 
connect to sample; 
/* 
select * from employee fetch first 10 rows only; 
*/ 
connect reset; 
 
will fail silently. Whereas a file containing the lines: 
connect to sample; 
/* select * from employee fetch first 10 rows only; */ 
connect reset; 
 
will produce the error message: 
DB21034E  The command was processed as an SQL statement because 
it was not a 
valid Command Line Processor command.  During SQL processing it 
returned: 
SQL0104N  An unexpected token "END-OF-STATEMENT" was found 
following "ly; */ 
connect reset".  Expected tokens may include:  "JOIN 
<joined_table>". 
SQLSTATE=42601 
 
This only effects DB2 9.7 on Solaris. Later DB2 versions on 
Solaris produce the expected error message. DB2 9.7 on other 
platforms produce the expected error message.
