How to solve "Deploy artifact failed" error when connecting CPI with DB2 on IBM i

[Victoria_Espinoza]

When trying to connect a DB2 database hosted on an IBM i. As the owner of the database said, it's necessary to install a special JDBC driver: jt400 20.0.2, as the standard JDBC driver from IBM is not compatible.

When we want to upload the JDBC driver in CPI (Cloud Integration) an error occurs: "Deploy artifact failed with error: ["(deployJdbcDriver) Failed to deploy jdbc driver null for tenant <tenant ID>"]"

How can this be solved?
