It's not loading the DB2 stuff. Check the output of phpinfo(), but I'm
betting it's not there.

Additionally, it's been a while since I played with it, but from what
I remember, iSeries DB2 isn't quite the same enough as DB2 for other
systems to work well with PHP, and you may need the rebuild one from
zend and IBM. (I have a vague impression that the issues is that the
iSeries DB2 doesn't speak DB2 wire protocol to the outside world, only
DRDA (which is kind of like "big boy ODBC" for clusters), and the DB2
extensions are wire protocol, but any of these details may be wrong.)
