Access to Database Access from JDBC

Hello,
I have a RFC to JDBC scenario.
The database is on a different machine to the XI, but from XI is going to map a drive to see the database.
In the communication channel I specified the drive with the rest of the path:
jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=Z:/TestDB.mdb
and I get an error:
com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException: Database connection could not be established
Is it possible to access an Access database that is not physically in the machine XI?
thanks very much,

hi silvia
first, you need to install JDBC driver in PI to be able to connect to MS Access.
please, see these links

Not able to access the Database & Clusterware from OEM Console.

hi,
I had installed Oracle RAC 11g R2 in RHEL 5.3 Operating environment. I had installed my Oracle RAC with Enterprise Manager Console.
Its with the defailt port 1158. After the installation when i try to access my EM Console, i was not able to access the Database and Clusterware from EM Console.
When i access the EM console with url, I found with Startup and Perform Recovery option. But whereas my database is already startup and running.
So when i click startup its saying database is already started. Since it is a prodution environment i dont want to go with Perform recovery option.
Please tell me hw to attach files in this thread so that i can send the snap shot of the console for your reference.

hi,
As mentioned due to not having the default listener port 1521, we are facing this problem.
As meniotned i had changed the emoms.properties file and changed the port and my emctl page is opening.
But am not able to access the other parameters like ASM, Servers, Clusters etc bcoz since in some file it is looking for 1521 default port.
So is it better to go for emctl deconfig and config again or to change the port the files which required.
If i do in what are the file the default port will be located related to emctl.

Access SAP database table from different SAP server

Hi,
May i know is that possible to access the SAP database table from server A to server B without write a program on server A? Is it possible for direct access the SAP database table.
Best regards,
Gan

Hello,
you could use the RFC-Modules RFC_READ_TABLE or RFC_GET_TABLE_ENTRIES on server A.
Precondition: you need a RFC-Destination from B to A.
And a little drawback: you get only the first 512 byte of each table entry.

How to access the database tables from application

Hii all,
The information in webcenter content, such as meta data fields, users, security groups etc are stored in
database tables like- Revisions, SecurityGroups, Users, DocType etc..
Can we access this tables from an adf application or any webcenter application..
If yes, then what can be the approach for that..??
Another things, how can we create custom tables just like the predefined tables...??
Any information regarding this.??
Thanks

Can we access this tables from an adf application or any webcenter application.Yes, you can - like to any other existing database. But I would strongly discourage you from any, but read-only access, or you can easily end up with inconsistent data.
If yes, then what can be the approach for that..??Just create a database connection and define in your model what tables you want to access.
Another things, how can we create custom tables just like the predefined tables...
Actually, WebCenter Content provides functionality of creation of custom tables (see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10978/c04_metadata.htm#autoId2 ) and these are probably the only good candidates for read-write access. See further in the manual what use cases are supported. Of course, you could do this even externally, but rather than Data Definition Language, I'd use services (if there are some).

Database access in a MVC architecture

Hi!
I'm a bit confused with regards to where the database access code should be put in a MVC architecture. From reading various articles and posts on this forum, there seem to be a lot of different opinions.
Some seem to put the database access code in the controller servlet(or JSP), while some seem to use helper classes from the JavaBeans, while a few people even seem to access the database directly from the JavaBean.
My questions is: What is the best place to put the database stuff in a MVC architecture? An explanation as to why a particular solution is the best would be great..
Thanks!

Vidar

Let's say I have a class called Department that contains methods like getName(), getId(), setName(), etc... The Department class is my business object. To save and load Departments from a database, I have a class called DepartmentManager. The DepartmentManager saves and loads the departments to the database, and has methods like saveDepartment(), saveDepartments(), loadDepartment(), getDepartments(), etc... In some cases, my manager classes also caches the results so they don't have to load from the database each time. Often times, the manager class is a singleton. My Department class has no idea how it is persisted, or that it is part of a cache. It just knows about itself. The DepartmentManager is resonsible for managing all the persistance and lookup functionality for Departments.
Therefore, if I have a JSP page that needs to display Departments, my code might look like:
DepartmentManager dm = DepartmentManager.getManager();
ArrayList listDepartments = dm.getDepartmentList();
for (int i = 0; listDepartments != null && i < listDepartments.size(); i++) {
Department dept = (Department)listDepartments.get(i);
out.println("<option value=\"" + dept.getId() + "\">" + dept.getName());
}If I had a specific Department I needed, I would get it as follows:
DepartmentManager dm = DepartmentManager.getManager();
Department dept = dm.getDepartment(nId);

Is it possible to create triggers in sybase from jdbc (java application)?

We are in the need to create a triggers in the database (sybase) from JDBC (java application)?
Please send me pointers or articles related to this.
Thanks in advance,
Kri

A trigger is NEVER explicitly called, from any environment.
It is implicitly called when you invoke the operation that it's a trigger for.
Whether you're using Java or anything else to invoke that operation makes no difference whatsoever.

Access database view from JPA to HANA database, JDBC: [258]: insufficient privilege:

My java application is delopyed on neo.ondemand.com and use the hana database on cloud also, we use eclipselink
the jpa persistence configuration:
<property name="eclipselink.target-database" value="com.sap.persistence.platform.database.HDBPlatform"/>
here i do not specify any user or password to access the database, i think hana JDBC somehow hide the user information when java application and hana database both are on the cloud.
for the tables created by JPA itself, access if fine.
now i have created a view via Hana studio, though database tunnel using account dXXXXXXsapdev
i have an JPA entity, and i am trying to access the view from java application, it reports error:
Exception [EclipseLink-4002] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 2.3.2.v20111125-r10461): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.DatabaseException Internal Exception: com.sap.db.jdbc.exceptions.JDBCDriverException: SAP DBTech JDBC: [258]: insufficient privilege:
I do not know which database user is used by JPA to access the view, how can i grant the database rights on the view so that "native java application on cloud" can
access the database schema (or view created though database tunnel )
any comment is welcomed.

Hi,
Please post this issue under SAP HANA Cloud Platform space. The platform experts should be able to help with that.

How can I access the oracle/sql server jdbc driver class files from my cust

I have a war file in which I have custom DataSource i.e mypackage.Datasource class. Its basically the need of my application. In this class we connect to datasource and link some of our programming artifacts .
I have deployed the oracle jdbc driver and deploy my application as ear with datasources.xml in the meta inf file. Inspite of that my code fails to load the jdbc driver classes.
Here is the extract of the code :
        Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver").newInstance();
         String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@dataserver:1521:orcl";
        Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "weblims3", "labware");
        if(conn != null){
          out.println("the connection to the database have been achieved");
        out.println("conn object achived= " + conn);
Class.forname fails in this case. I can see the ojdbc5.jar the driver jar in usr\sap\CE1\J00\j2ee\cluster\bin\ext\ojdbc5 . I even put the ojdbc.jar in web-inf/lib and application lib but does not help at all. Hope I have explained my problem clearly.
I deployed the jdbc driver in the name of ojdbc5 .
I am stuck here. It will be great help if anyone can help me in this. Thanks in advance.

Bent,
You can access the database from your Java portlet, just like from any other Java/JSP environment. Yes, you can use JDBC, as well as BC4J.
The Discussion Forum portlet was built using BC4J, take a look at it's source to see how it was done.
Also, check out Re: BC4J Java portlet anyone?, it contains a lot of useful information too.

WHY can't I access my database from an applet???????????

The security code won't let my applet access its own database (from its own server)..
I'm using getDocumentBase()
to try and tell it that it is my own damn file..
I keep getting :
java.securityAccessControlException: access denied <java.util.PropertyPermission jdbc.drivers write>
...etc.
This applet crap is really starting to piss me off. I can see why they came out with JSP.
All I need to do is access my database, update it, etc. It kind of defeats the purpose of being able to do jdbc from applets if you can't even access the database on your own damn server.
If you all don't have a clue, I'm freakin switching to PHP--I'm tired of this crap-I was thinking Java was a damn good language until I hit applets.

The simple answer to your question is: Because of security concerns.
The somewhat longer answer is that directly accessing a database from an applet is generally not a good idea. A lot of security-critical code like DB username/password must be hidden in the applet which potentially can be downloaded (and disassembled) by anyone that hits your webpage. Maybe you do an intranet solution with trusted users but that is not what applets were originally designed for.
The clean way is to make your applet talk to a servlet that talks to your database.
If that is not the way you want to do it, make sure that all client policy files (yes, on the browser machine) contain the permissions that your applet needs.

Database access from session bean

Hello,
I have a stateless session bean which performs some complex
calculations, and also does some database access.
For the database access the bean class has a datasource as
follows:
public class TestBean implements SessionBean {
private DataSource ds_;
public void ejbCreate() {
     getDataSources();
private void getDataSources() {
     try {
     Context ictx = new InitialContext();
     ds_ = (DataSource)ictx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/TestDB");
     } catch (Exception e) {
     e.printStackTrace();
     throw new EJBException(e);
Now this class has a method (which is also in the remote interface)
calculateSomething(). This method constructs a number of other
objects that do the actual calculation, and one of these objects
does the actual database access. How would another object be able to
use the datasource that was constructed in the bean class?
I could pass the datasource reference to that object, but that would
break my encapsulation. This is because that object does not get
created directly by the bean object, but rather the way the objects
interact is something like A -> B -> C, where A is the TestBean, and
C is the object that does the DB access. If I passed the datasource,
I would need to make B aware of the datasource, which doesn't
seem good design, because B doesn't do any database access.
Alternatively I could do the lookup in class C, but that would
degrade the performance, as an object C gets created and destroyed
every time the calculateSomething() method is called.
A third option I have thought of, is to add a public method to the
bean that returns a connection. Whenever another object gets
created, a reference to the bean object will be passed along. Then,
if another object needs to do database access, it will call back
the bean to get a connection. This seems just as bad (if not worse)
than the first option.
Does anyone have an elegant solution for this situation? What is
the best practice of handling datasources when a bean class doesn't
do the database access itself? In all the examples I've seen so far,
all the functionality was in the session bean class, but again that
doesn't seem good OO design, and would result in a single huge class.
regards,
Kostas

Thanks again to both for the replies. Here are my responses:
Yi Lin: Yes, I know that an entity bean would solve this problem, however it has been decided not to use entity beans so this is not my call (I think the reason entity beans are not allowed in this project is that they are considered risky: there are other applications that access the same database, so if the container caches entity bean data as you describe, then the users might get inconsistent results).
Gerard: Actually object B is the one that has the business logic and C is a peer object that only does database access and no calculaitons. For example B can be Customer, and C CustomerDB. This is why object B does not have any knowledge of datasources or connections. So my design does not appear to be that bad!
As far as the factory you propose is concerned, I cannot understand how this would solve my problem. In order to solve this situation the factory would need to be persistent, i.e. get created by the ejbCreate() method, and destroyed whenever the container decides to destroy the bean. There would be no point in object C creating the factory, as I would have the overhead of doing the JNDI lookup every time I create a C.
So the question remains the same: how would I pass a reference to the factory from A to C without making B aware of it?

Remote database access via JDBC?

Hello,
Can anyone give me info on accessing remote databases (i.e. Microsoft
Access, etc) from Java programs (Servlets, JSP's, Classes) residing on the
iSeries (AS400) or perhaps any platform?
I currently have a couple of web applications set up on the Websphere App server that access DB2/400 database and I also have some Java Classes on PC's that access MS Access datafiles. I would like to begin writing the majority of my applications that run on the iSeries (or host system) that can remotely access other databases on our network.
Any info would be of great help to me.
Thank you
Don

I don't know of any existing Access JDBC drivers that support remote access, after all, the Access database itself is not remote access capable except via file sharing. One possibility is to look for a Type 3 JDBC driver that supports reuse of other Type 1 (ODBC bridge), Type 2 (Java/Native Mix) and Type 4 (pure Java)JDBC drivers on the server side.
If you were using WebLogic Server, I suppose you could use its remote JDBC facilities, but that won't help you.
One problem you will have to face is that Access JDBC drivers are not (if I recall) meant to be used in a multithreaded fashion. Good luck. By the way, it might be far simpler to port the Access database to DB2/400.

Jdbc non-odbc-bridge for Access mdb database

I would like to have my Java program be able to use a MicroSoft Access-97 or Access-2000 mdb database. I don't want to use an odbc driver, but instead use a type-2 or 3 or 4 driver (preferrable type-4).
Does such a driver exist? This is for a freeware project, and I would prefer a free or very low cost driver.
I'm not sure I fully understand the differences between jdbc types. My impression is that an odbc-bridge driver requires that the end-user setup the odbc connection. I'd like to avoid that if possible.
My intent is to distribute the application with the MyApp.mdb database file, and have MyApp be able to use the database without user setup.
I suppose an alternative would be to programmatically create the odbc-bridge data source configuration. Is that possible from a java program, and, if so, how? I can do this with Visual C++, but not clear on how to do in Java

Searching the forums is always a good idea.
From one of the previous times I answered this.

Accessing database Variables using JDBC

Hi,
I have a question for some of you Java specialists out there.
I want to execute a select statment in my database (SQL Server 2000) and store the output in a variable. - The reason I am not directly executing the SQL statement from my JDBC connection is that I need to execute a number of SQL statements and then finally would like to store my result set in a variable in the database - NOW, my question is , how do I (If I can) access a database variable using either servlets or JSP. Any help is welcome.
A quick response would be much appreciated.
thanks

We are probably talking about different things.
ASP, at least when I used consisted of the following:
-html
-server side script (vbscript, javascript, perlscript)
-client side script (usually javascript but it could be vbscript and perlscript)
In the above you have three possible kinds of variables java, perl, vb. In each of those languages you can use SQL text to manipalate data in the database. However the text itself never ran in the ASP server nor was there such a thing a SQLscript, so there was nothing that was a SQL variable.
However, if I write a stored procedure in Oracle, it can definitely have variables. And likewise a oracle package can have variables. But there is no way to directly use those variables in ASP. The value of the variable would have to be returned to the ASP script language and a variable in tha language could contain that value.
Perhaps I just don't understand ASP or it has evolved in the last 3 years. If so then ignore everthing I have said.
