DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2

DB2 V9 Client does not proceed past the 'Language Selection' 
panel during the GUI install when setup.exe is run from command 
prompt with a language switch (e.g. setup.exe -i EN) which 
differs from the language being used for the OS regional 
settings 
 
The problem happens in the following scenario: 
1). It is a v9 DB2 Client install 
2). It is the first db2 product installed on the system 
3). The install lang is not the default machine lang. The 
"-i [lang]" option is in the cmd line, eg. setup.exe -i EN on a 
German machine, or setup.exe -i FR on an English machine 
4). 'Typical' or 'Compact' install type is selected in the GUI 
install. 
 
This problem is not applicable for response file based silent 
install.

DB2 V9 CLIENT INSTALLER DOES NOT PROCEED ON WINDOWS

Possible workarounds include: 
1) Selecting 'Custom' install type in the GUI install if you 
want to use language switch '-i [lang]'. 
2) Change your OS regional settings to the same language as that 
of the language switch being used when setup.exe. is run 
3) Not using the /i en switch.
