Changing the Database connection after deployment.

Dear All,
I have deployed an application and want to change the connection to live database so how do i change it..
Do i have to redeploy the application ?. Both db's are oracle.
-Thanks

Hi Santosh,
As Frank said u can connect ur Application using a JDBC Datasource.. So u can change in ur Connection Settings in WLS... u can find the documentation as below....
Section 9.3.1 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/b31974/bcservices.htm#sm0203
For Weblogic Server : Section 35.8 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/web.1111/b31974/deployment_topics.htm#CHDFJADJ

How to change the Data sources after deploying the application ??

Hi All,
i want to know how to change the Data sources after deploying the application to the application server ???
I'm using Oracle Application Server 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0)

Can you access the Enrprise Manager website of the target Application Server from your location? If so, you can change the datasource in it. If not, yo can bundle the datasource definition in your archive and use that one instead of the one configured in the target OC4J container. Or this will just be the responsability of your customer: whenever you send a new WAR file, they have to modify the datasource if needed and deploy the application?

Configure database connection after deploy to Tomcat

I developed a Web Application in JDeveloper. The database connection is defined in data-sources.xml for internal testing. When I deploy my application to Oracel Application Server, I can configure data sources in Oracle application server. My question is: when I deploy my application to Tomcat, I followed Tomcat document to create data source in Tomcat, but where is the java code to change to database connection in the application created in JDeveloper?

Hi,
Java EE data sources is a standard. If e.g. you reference jdbc/hrconn in your application (you don't mention what you use) then configuring this as a JNDI name for the data source in Tomcat should be enough to get it working

Closing the database connection after report in a server application

I searched these forums and the internet for a definitive answer on asking the Crystal SDK for java to close the jdbc connection after it has generated a report. We have been using the Crystal Report SDK to generate reports within our JEE application, built upon the Spring framework, for the past two years. It works well, especially if you prepare views in the database for your reports.
From what I can tell once you have used ReportClientDocument to create your report you all the close() method to release resources associated with report generation, but this does not close the jdbc database connection.
Further research states that if you are using the CrystalReportViewer you can call the dispose method to close the database connection. We are not using JSP nor this class, so that does us little good.
Finally I found a post that one could call ((AdvancedReportDocument)reportClientDocument.getReportSource()).dispose(). This doesn't drop the connection either.
Each report actually opens 3 connections according to SQL Server. Each report will reuse the connections it has open, so for 50 reports, theoretically, we could have up to 150 connections. We explained to our client those connections remain inactive, however this is unacceptable to our client as they would like to minimize the number of connections left open to their database.
If anyone can post any further information on this issue, it is much appreciated.

Yes, another team member found the issue. Quite embarrassing really I didn't see it. I was looking for the answer within Crystal's libraries. It had nothing to do with Crystal.
The developer who wrote the helper code for using Crystal first opened a connection to the datasource for the live production database and read that connection information for the report. Next he set that connection information in the report template's PropertyBag, then ran the report. The developer however forgot to close the connection he used to look up the connection info, leaving a memory leak and using up all the connections.
I'm glad you inquired. I forgot to post the resolution here.

Getting errors after changing the Database

Previously I was using a different database connection for my adf application.Now i have changed the database connection through project properties->business components. I also deleted the details of the previous connection from connection.xml file. But still i'm getting the error about the previous connection.
Please share your opinion to get rid of this problem.

Try this.
1. Menu->View->Database->Database Navigator
2. Find your application specific connection.
3. Check properties of the connection, update/recreate, test the connection using Test button.
4. Menu->Build->Clean All

Bc4j.xcfg, database connections and deploying ADF apps to oc4j

I'm trying to understand how to enable custom database connections on a JDeveloper ADF application deployed to a stand-alone instance of OC4J.
All entity objects were created as ADF Business Components.
I looks like the db connection information used by the application is stored in a file named "bc4j.xcfg".
How would I change the database connection information between different environments, changing the server, port and password information from an OC4J instance?
I'd like to use an OC4J defined data-sources.xml file, but am looking for the simplest approach for now.

Tomato tomaato, call it what you will, we now have to spend time (money) figuring out how to change from using the recommended use of a "connection" from Oracle tutorials and in Oracle Press books.
Plus, neither I nor our client can get JDeveloper ADF 10.1.3 to work on OAS 10.1.2.
Oracle has been of little help, other than stating to follow documentation. We followed the documentation at least a dozen times and on three different install of OAS 10.1.2.
Why doesn't JDeveloper have a check-box or button that reconfigures the application to run on 10.1.2 (J2EE 1.3), there is a check-box to change JDK versions (1.4)? This is suspect to me.
We are going to be speaking with the client this week, and have to state the ADF application works, but NOT on OAS 10.1.2.
Does ADF work on OAS 10.1.3, absolutely, but the client is in 10.1.2 and can not upgrade at this time.
I've read in blogs where lots of developers have the same issues without resolution and Oracle should just come out and state that 10.1.3 does not work on 10.1.2.
So my experience has been a mixed bag with ADF, both in terms of the software and customer support from Oracle.

How can I change the database & schema used by an Application?

Hi community,
I am very new on Essbase and I need help to find out how can I change the database connection (and schema) used by the database of an Application. The figure is that I need to point this database to a QA environment (currently it points to DEV).
If I do a right click over the properties of the database, I can see the following tabs: [ General ][ Dimensions ][ Statistics ][ Modifications ][ Compression ]. However, there is no option to change the database connection.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance for any help! Cheers!

Are you trying to change a database connection of Planning application?
Essbase application do not have a relational connection.

How to change async to sync after deploying the process.? Thanks

How to change async to sync after deploying the process.? Thanks

you'd need to change the base wsdl, the generated one (_Name.wsdl) and the bpel.file .. and remove the generated classes .. (all in domains/you_domain/tmp/your_process dir)
the wsdl needs to get the output msg to the input msg instead of a callback porttype, the same needs to be in the generated wsdl (don't forget to remove the callback role in plnk session).. and the bpel process needs to have a reply instead of the invoke ..
this is what you would need to do .. BUT, maybe we can find a better solution for you, if you elaborate on the usecase..
during design time this is easier :-)

Problem in getting the database connection from a connection pool

Hai All,
I am facing a problem in getting the database connection from a connection pool created on weblogic server 8.1.
I am using the Oracle database 8.1.7.
I have configured my connection pool, datasource and JNDI in weblogic.
In my java program i have the following code to retrieve the connection.
import java.sql.*;
import java.util.Hashtable;
import javax.naming.Context;
import javax.naming.InitialContext;
class jdbcshp1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
     Connection connection = null;
     try {
           Hashtable ht = new Hashtable();
           ht.put(Context.INITIAL_CONTEXT_FACTORY,"weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory"); // Wanna get rid of this.
           ht.put(Context.PROVIDER_URL,"t3://localhost:7001"); // wanna get rid of this.
           // Get a context for the JNDI look up
           Context ctx = new InitialContext(ht);
        javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup ("myjndi1");
          //Create a connection object
          connection = ds.getConnection();
     The above code is working fine but, the two ht.put statements are creating problem.
The problem is, after converting the application into WAR file it can be deployed
on any machine or different port on same machine. My application fails if its deployed on
weglogicserver which is at different port.
Is there any way that i can get rid of those ht.put statements or any other way to solve the problem.
any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Pooja.

Hai All,
Firstly, thanks for ur reply.
Even i have seen some code which uses context constructor with out any parameter and works fine.
i dont understand why its not working for my code.
When i remove those ht.put code and use context constructor with out any parameter, it giving an error.
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource) ctx.lookup ("ocjndi");
connection = ds.getConnection();The error is as follows:
javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Need to specify class name in environment or system property, or as an applet parameter, or in an application resource file: java.naming.factory.initial
the above error is forcing me to include those code but if the port number is changed the code will not work. Plz let meknow if some setting have to be made.
I appreciate all ur valuable help.
Thanks once again.
Pooja.

Is there a way todynamically change the Database of the ApplicationModuleIM

Hi,
I am working for the Coast Guard, and we have 4
different environment each with their own database. One
for Development, QA, Staging, and Production. Each
environment has its own database with its own copy of
the application data.
Is there a way to change the DataURL of the
Application Module before it connects to the database,
so I can modify the URL to point to Development Database
on my Server, QA Database when on the QA Server, etc.
The closest thing I have found is a procedure that is
called directly after the connection is established, I
have not been able to find a similar function that is
called before the connection is established.
Mark Daly

To whom it may concern:
I have Finally figured out how to do this. The problem
is not overriding connection behavior in the application
module, but rather overriding behavior in the Default
Application Pool.
Create a class that inherits from ApplicationPoolImpl
and over ride this function
public void initialize(String name,
String applicationModuleClassName,
String connectString,
Hashtable env)
The DataURL is contained in both the Connect String, and
the Env Hashtable. Update them at this point to your new
DataURL, and the application will open the database
connection to the alternate location.
Now the only problem is getting your application to use
your connection pool, instead of the default, this is
easily done by changing the configuration of the
Application Module. You left click on the Application
Module, choose configuration, then click edit, then find
the property label Custom Application Pool
Implementation class replace it content with the
correct import path to your Pool, then click OK to save
the changes, and your are done, the application module
should be using your pool, instead of the default pool.
This is useful code when you have a separate database
for development, QA, Staging, and Production.

When i click open editor, I see all the user info are grayed out. I could not change anything.
How do i change the current source connection username?
Any help is appreciated..

Steps to change universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10

Hi,
we are moving from sql server to Oracle 10.Please let me know the steps and various parameters I should consider while changing universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10.
Following are the steps which I assumed :
1.     create a new Oracle database connection or edit the existing connection to point to Oracle server
2.     Need to check sql for each object, having integrity check for universe will solve the purpose of parsing each object
3.     Exporting the universe after integrity check
4.     Report data testing
Let me know if I miss on any steps.Also what all factors I need to consider while moving to Oracle for eg: what @ custom sql,what @ table names,what @ LOV etc.
Kindly reply

Thanks Abhijeet and Shreyash,
I will follow the steps you have suggested.
Actually I was searching for this on net and got to know that with Oracle database connection,theres lot of stuff needs to take care of in terms of custom sql and LOV and in our case,we have lot of custom sql for each object in the universe so just wanted to confirm.
I will do the changes and let you guys know in case theres any isuue specifically to Oracle.

Why do I get a class conflict between the Prepare SQL.vi and the Get Column Name.vi with the SQL Toolkit compatibility vis from the Database Connectivity Toolkit?

I have done extensive programming with the SQL Toolkit with LabVIEW versions through 6.1. My customer now wants to upgrade to Windows 7, so I am trying to upgrade to LabVIEW 2009 (my latest purchased version) using the Database Connectivity Toolkit, and the SQL Toolkit Compatibility vis. Everything seemed to be going okay with the higher level SQL operations, but I ran into trouble with the Get Column Name.vi.
The pictures below show the problem. The original SQL Toolkit connected the Prepare SQL.vi with the Get Column Name.vi with a cluster of two references, one for connection, and one for sql. The new compatibility vis have a class conflict in the wire because the Prepare SQL.vi contains a cluster with connection, and command references, but the Get Column Name.vi expects a cluster with connection and recordset references.
How do I resolve this conflict?
Thank You.
Dan

I've never worked with the old version of the toolkit, so I don't know how it did things, but looking inside the SQL prep VI, it only generates a command, and the the column name VI wants a recordset. I'm not super familiar with all the internals of ADO, but my understanding is that is standard - you only have the columns after you execute the command and get the recordset back. What you can apparently do here is insert the Execute Prepared SQL VI in the middle and that will return what you need.
I'm not sure why it worked before. Maybe the execute was hidden inside the prep VI or maybe you can get the column names out of the command object before execution. In general, I would recommend considering switching to the newer VIs.
Try to take over the world!

How to correct close database connection after report generation

Hello
I have problem a with alive database connection after report creation and report closing. How to properly to close connection to database?
Best regards
Edited by: punkers84 on Jun 17, 2011 10:38 AM

that's what I am doing... after viewing the report, I call the close method on the window closing event of the container window. but the connection is still open. I had a lot of other issues with my jdbc driver but after downgrading to an older version those issues are resolved.Only this one is still there! Is there any other way to close the connection (like using dbcontroller or etc.)?
