See the "user response" at the bottom of the IBM doc for SQL1159N, which also lists the various reasons you might receive this error code:

There was a problem with your DB2 installation. If this is the first time DB2 was installed on this computer, review the install logs for any possible errors and run a repair of DB2 from the Add/Remove Programs control panel applet. The default location of the installation logs is the My Documents/DB2LOG folder of the user that performed the installation. If this does not resolve the issue please contact IBM Support and provide the reason code associated with this message along with any installation logs.
