Connecting to MSSQL Database

Hello,
Currently we are migrating out existing application from Weblogic to OAS 10g 10.1.3. In the current code we are connecting to the MSSQL Database as below:
DriverManager.registerDriver (new weblogic.jdbc.mssqlserver4.Driver());
In the above code we are using the weblogic specific jar to register the driver to connect to the Database. Is there an equivalent class available in OAS? (I am using JDeveloper IDE for development work)
Kindly let me know. Thanks in advance.
Thanks,
Lakshmisri Gopalan

JDBC Connection to MSSQL-Database in Netweaver Portal

We are running into problems when trying to create a Query- or JDBC iView to retrieve data from a MS SQL server table.
Here is what we have tried on 2 different EP portals.
Portal versions:
6.0.12.0.0 (NW04 SPS12)
6.0.14.0.0 (NW04 SPS14)
Step 1: Created a JDBC system.
Connection URL - jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<servername>:1433;DatabaseName=name
Driver Class Name - com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
Connection Factory Class JDBCFactory
Admin User ID (DQE) database admin name
Admin Password (DQE) database admin password
User Mapping Type admin;user
Step 2: Created an alias for this JDBC system, for example, test_JDBC_system.
Step 3: Added user mapping.
Search for my user ID in the User Mapping in User Admin section, click on Edit, and select the JDBC alias name test_JDBC_system in the system dropdown list, and then put database admin user name and database admin password in the fields User and Password, and click on Save.
Step 4: Tested the connection.
Connection Test Through DQE was successful, but Connection Test for Connectors failed. Error message was:
Results
Retrieval of default alias successful
Connection failed. Make sure user mapping is set correctly and all connection properties are correct.
Step 5: Created a JDBC stored procedure iView.
Got an error message like this Error connecting to backend application. Check your system and user mapping settings. Contact your system administrator if problem persists.
Step 6: Because we couldnt successfully create JDBC iView, so we tried to created a Query iView instead.
It showed me the system alias, and I could drill down all the way to the table level and put in my query, for example, SELECT cdb_admin.Land.Land FROM cdb_admin.Land (table name is land and the column name is also land, cdb_admin is the admin user). But it gave me an error when previewing it Query execution failed. Exception message:
Here are our issues/thoughts:
We dont know how to do the user mapping, not sure what to put into User and Password fields.
The documents saying these versions have the SQL Server Driver installed already, but we couldnt see the com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver under System Drivers in JDBC connector in SAP Visual Admin.
In some document, it used com.sap.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver, and we dont see that in the system driver list either.
We tried to deploy MS SQL driver 3 jar files msbase.jar, mssqlserver.jar, msutil.jar by adding a new driver under JDBC connector in SAP VA. We gave it a name MSSQL. But we dont know if we referred to the SQLServerDriver class correctly by entering Driver Class Name - com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver when creating the JDBC system in the portal.
It seems like we connected to the database server and tables when using Query iView, but why did we get this Query execution failed. Exception message: ? We tried to modify the query to select land from land too, but it didnt work either, same error message. So is it really the SQL statement wrong? There is not much documentation on Query iView and can you give me some hints?
Thanks very much..

Hi,
in "User" and "Password" field you need to give database administrator User-ID and Password.
You just need to give proper Database url and Driver class name to access MS SQL thro JDBC system.
Have you set the security settings for the database, check the <b>prerequsites</b> in the following link:
<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/f5/eb516b0e6a11d7b84900047582c9f7/frameset.htm">Creating iViews for Databases</a>

Can't connect to MSSQL database

Hi,
I'm very new to J2EE. I've been trying to get my JSPs to access my MSSQL database. I'm using JBoss as the application server.
Here's what I've done:
1. Downloaded and installed the MSSQL 2000 JDBC driver.
2. Edited the \server\default\deploy\mssql-ds.xml file:
<datasources>
<local-tx-datasource>
<jndi-name>MSSQLDS</jndi-name>
<connection-url>jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://server1:1433;DatabaseName=Test;User=sa;Password=passwd;SelectMethod=Cursor</connection-url>
<driver-class>com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver</driver-class>
<DatabaseName>Test</DatabaseName>
<user-name>sa</user-name>
<password>passwd</password>
<min-pool-size>100</min-pool-size>
<max-pool-size>1000</max-pool-size>
<blocking-timeout-millis>5000</blocking-timeout-millis>
</local-tx-datasource>
</datasources>
3. I edited the "C:\jboss\bin\run.bat" file and inserted into the second line:
"set CLASSPATH=c:\mssql_jdbc_driver\lib\mbase.jar;c:\mssql_jdbc_driver\lib\msutil.jar;c:\mssql_jdbc_driver\lib\mssqlserver.jar;"
where C:\mssql_jdbc_driver is the folder where my *.jar files are located.
4. I created a .jsp page like this:
-----Start test.jsp -----------
<%
try {
String sDBDriver = "com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver";
String sConnStr = "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=multiplex;User=sa;Password=secret;";
Class.forName(sDBDriver);
java.sql.Connection conn = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(sConnStr);
java.sql.Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
java.sql.ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("select 'Multiplex' As Name");
while (rs.next()) { %>
<%= rs.getString("Name") %><br>
<%}
catch (ClassNotFoundException cnfe)
System.err.println("Unable to load MSSQL database driver!");
System.err.println("ClassNotFoundException: " + cnfe.getMessage());
%>
------End test.jsp -----------------------
5. But then when I run test.jsp, I get a ClassNotFoundException saying its not able to load the MSSQL driver.
Have I missed out some configuration step? I've been searching all avenues of support for 3 days but still can't get it working. Can someone help, please?
Thanks!

Thanks for your replies.
The database should be "Test", sorry.
I find the JBoss documentation isn't very beginner-friendly. And I can't get a reply from the JBoss forums. Does anyone who has worked with JBoss know where I should define the CLASSPATH for the MSSQL jar files?
Actually if someone could point me to step-by-step instructions on how to set up a database connection to MSSQL from JBoss in a Windows environment, I would be very very grateful...

Connections to MSSQL database

Hi SDN.
A long time ago some had developed a jspdynpage application on a MSSQL database using a jdbcconnector. Sometimes we get a connection error, and we have to restart the portal. We think that it might be that there are to many open connections.
Is there anywhere that I can see these open connections?
Where do I set up how many connections are allowed?
Our portal is 6.0.2.41
Thanks
Peter

Hi Peter,
check the SAP Library section <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2d/292391fa6745488f3e0e0d4b03c64e/frameset.htm">Managing Connection Pooling</a>. There you will find detailed instructions how to set maximum number of connections.

How to connect to a MSSQL database thru EP

I need to know how to connect a mssql database to EP.

Hi Garry,
In order to connect to an external database you have to create JDBC or BI JDBC systems:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/1f/bddf3d48b05d5ae10000000a11405a/content.htm
Then, you can show the information into the database using simple "query iviews"
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/f5/eb516b0e6a11d7b84900047582c9f7/content.htm
or with developer tools like Visual Composer

Error while creating JDBC connection pool for MSSQL database

Hi,
From my windows m/c, I am trying to configure a connection pool to connect to
an MSSQL database on another m/c. While setting the targets, i get the error :-
<Mar 11, 2004 6:17:52 PM GMT+08:00> <Error> <JDBC> <Cannot startup connection
pool "gcdb_connpool" Cannot load driver class: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver>
I have added the path of the jars for the driver in the classpath.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi. Read the weblogic startup script, and follow how it creates
a classpath argument for the server. You must get the driver jars
into that classpath.

Connecting MSSQL Database source system from BW 3.5/Oracle 9.2.0.6/AIX 5.3

Hi,
We want to extract data from MSSQL database source system into BW 3.5/Oracle 9.2.0.6 system in AIX environment. Apart from intsalling NT app server,UDC, XI,flat file options, can you please suggest any other methods to extract data from SQL database into BW/AIX system?. Thanks in advance.
Thanks.
Raj.

Raj,
Did you find any solution for this problem. We are having exactly the same issue and are trying to do it with SAP DBConnect.
We are able to create a Source System for MSSQL server but it does not connect since the "Database Shared Library" is not installed on our BW 3.5 AIX box.
From what we gather there is NO DSL for MSSQL for AIX. I cannot believe we cannot connect to MSSQL directly since we have too many MSSQL databases all around the company.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, the submitted error must be analyzed according to the Syntaxis and characteristics of the MSSQL database. See explanation of error.
http://doc.ddart.net/mssql/sql2000/html/trblsql/tr_reslsyserr_1_1o1i.htm
Error 156
Severity Level 15
Message Text
Incorrect syntax near the keyword '%.*ls'.
Explanation
This error indicates that the syntax of a Transact-SQL statement is incorrect and that the syntax error was detected near the keyword specified in the error message. The most frequent causes for syntax errors are misspellings of Transact-SQL keywords or operators, and specifying the syntax of a Transact-SQL statement in the wrong order.
One of the more complicated causes for this error may be a compatibility level mismatch for the current database. If the current database has a compatibility level other than 70, Microsoft® SQL Serveru2122 will not recognize any of the keywords that a database with a compatibility level of 70 would recognize.
Action
First, check the Transact-SQL statement syntax near the keyword specified in the error message. Because Transact-SQL language syntax can be very complex, SQL Server may incorrectly report the position of the syntax error as later in the Transact-SQL statement than it actually occurred. Second, reexamine the entire Transact-SQL statement that generated the error. Verify the syntax order of the statement.
Ensure that the database does not have a compatibility level of 65 and has a compatibility level of 70.

Best Practice for closing a blocking connection to the database.

Background:
Using toplink/eclipselink to manage the the connection to the database.
We support 3 databases, Oracle, Mysql, and MSSQL.
We host the an application locally (SAAS) and we also distribute it to our clients so they can run it on premise.
Problem:
From time to time the application will execute a route that query the DB and will take 10+ minutes. When we find these queries we generally fix them, but it takes time to fix the problem and roll new code to production. We have also found that if an end user executes the query to many times they can potentially bring the service down - maxing out the database connection, or putting a huge load on the DB effectively rendering the system to a crawl.
During this time period the IT team need a way to abort a transaction. The current approach, for our SAAS solution, to scan the database find to the long running query and kill it. The application is smart enough to recover and everything seems to work fine. This doesn't always work for our on premise customers - often they don't have a DBA or adequate resources to monitor the system. Therefore, I'm looking for a way to have the application kill/close any query that is lasting longer then X minutes. We currently track the duration of every thread so I can get the time the thread has been actively running.
Stack Trace
Currently we keep track of how long each thread is running waiting for a response from the database such as the stacktrace below, I would like to grab the connection and physically close it. Since we are using a java socket and it's in a blocking state there is no way for us to interrupt the thread. The only option is to wait for it to receive a response from the db - kill the sql process - or to close the java socket.

Question
What is the best way to grab the connection and close it - from another thread?

The reason for changing the namespace is to guarantee that they appear as different versions. The namespace is part of the strong name of the DLL when deployed. Yes they will be deployed to separate servers because a server can only belong
to one farm. But when you are doing a migration it won't be clear that you need to install the 2013 version since the .DLL will report that it exists in the 2010 farm already. It will work without changing the namespace, but it would be best to differentiate
versions at that level to avoid confusion.

Connecting to Oracle database in Java using TNSNAMES.ora

I have a program that can connect to both MSSQL and Oracle databases. It works fine when a user has defined an odbc connection, however if the user only has a tnsnames.ora, I don't know how to code the program in Java to connect to the database. I can't hard-code the server name because I don't know the database up front - I need to be able to read tnsnames.ora to get the information instead. How can I get this information? So far, the object OracleDataSource seems to be getting me the closest, however I am still failing to connect.

In 10.2, JDBC-Thin supports TNSNAMES entries lookup in tnsnames.ora, resulting in a much simplified and driver type independent Oracle Net descriptor. You must set the system property oracle.net.tns_admin to the directory that contains your tnsnames.ora file.
See the Oracle JDBC 10.2 doc.
Here is a code fragment from my book (see my blog below)
java -Doracle.net.tns_admin=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
or:
System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin", "c:\oracle\net\admin");
OracleDataSource ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setTNSEntryName("tns_alias");
ods.setUser("scott");
ods.setPassword("tiger");
ods.setDriverType("thin");
Connection conn = ods.getConnection();

Hello All,
I found the solution for my particular situation!
When checking the runtime object for CLU4, an inconsistency in the runtime object popped up:
- the ABAP dictionary contains the field K5N1
- the DB dictionry contains the field name K5N01
This is a known and documented inconsistency, see note 902817 for the description.
BUT: the solution pointed out there is wrong! The note suggests to delete all content from the physical tables and then activate the table in SE14. This is not possible for cluster tables neither in SE14 nor in SE11.
This solution worked for me for both CLU4 and VER_CLUSTR:
- as the tables should be empty normally I dropped them in the database
- unlock the shadow instance with SAPup
- log on on to the shadow instance
- I then made some arbitrary change to the table definition in SE 11 (like adding a field). Make sure to maintain the size class also, otherwise the table won't be activated
- save the changes and activate the tables
- take back the previous change
- save and activate again
- lock the shadow instance
- restart the upgrade phase
Once the upgrade is done, check whether the physical table exists in the DB.
Hope this helps!
Regards,
Matthias.

DW CS4 Links to MSSQL Database, sees fields/data but won't display on webpage

I'm trying to get a Dynamic Data Table to show in my webpage but I can't. (Using ASP JavaScript)
I'm using DW CS4 (10.0 build 4117) and connecting to an MSSQL database on a Windows platform server hosted by Verio.
I can successfully link to the database, I can see my data correctly when I bind the record set and do a "Test SQL Statement" , see images below:
My Design View of the page with the table shows the correct fields and looks like:
Everything should look when I switch to Live View or view the page on a browser, right?? Well instead I get this:
If the pic is unclear it says:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
/Test2009/Untitled-1.asp, line 5
Line 5 of course refers to the ActiveConnection command which uses the INCLUDE file for the connection string.
The Line 5 is
Recordset1_cmd.ActiveConnection = MM_PMCDonSQL_STRING;
And the INCLUDE reverenced is:
var MM_PMCDonSQL_STRING = "dsn=PMCSQL1;uid=pmcapp0010sql;pwd=FloraVista49;"
These are parameters for logging into the MSSQL database (This is just a test database so showing password doesn't matter)":
Server By Name: SQLExpress4.mql14000.MSSQLServers.com,1433\SQLExpress4
Server By IP: 128.121.85.21,1433\SQLExpress4
Database Name: pmcapp0010
Login ID: pmcapp0010sql
Password: FloraVista49
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG?

No one wanted to help me but I figured out that I was not referencing the DSN on the test server, only the local DSN.
The information to connect to the MSSQL database given by my hosting company was not correct for Dreameweaver (or MS Access) either.

DB CONNECT support Hyperion database(Essbase)

Hi,
Does DB CONNECT support Hyperion database(Essbase) for SAP BW 3.5/7.0.
Regards
CSM Reddy

Hi,
assuming that you talk about ABAP DB CONNECT, this is not the case. From ABAP, SAP supports at maximum secondary connections to databases that are also supported by SAP as SAP databases (Oracle, the three DB2s, MSSQL, MAXDB).
You also need to be aware that not every OS on your application server is able to connect to every database listed above. In case of SAP on iSeries, you need to have a Windows Appserver to be able to connect against most other databases supported by SAP.
For more details about ABAP multi-connect refer to SAP note 323151, or the iSeries note 445872.
However, the JAVA part of the WebAS provides means to open secondary connections against any database which support a JDBC driver. The BW UDI connector (which uses that ability) might also support the Hyperion database. I'm not familar with their plans.
Hope that helps.
