I assume you configured portal to run on a DB/2 database. Since you
wrote you cannot even start your DB/2, I assume this is the reason for
your portal startup problem. You normally get this error when a portal
service cannot start properly during portal startup. I assume your
portal database service cannot start because your DB/2 is not started.
You should try to figure out what the problem is with your DB/2. Once
you can successfully start the database, I assume portal will start up
properly as well.
