After installing DB2 on the server and editing the services file to add DB2, in local services, the db2-db2 copy1 

would not start with this error: Windows could not start the DB2-DB2COPY1 - DB2 service on local computer. 

Error 1068: The dependency serice or group failed to start. This happened when installing Ralph Spence. 

What Will did to fix it was to right click on the service, properties, Log On tab and changed the ID to be .\db2admin 

instead of the Desktop\db2admin. Then the service would start. Had to do t his on the other db2 services that had 

the desktop\db2admin as the id.
