Data Source Username

I have set up an SQL database in the coldfusion MX
administrator and it enables ok. When I refresh the databases tab
in dreamweaver it recognises the database. I then select recordset
in the bindings tab and select teh database in the drop down menu.
Then I get a user name and password box. What user name and
password is it looking for? I have tried all I can think of!

Problem solved, there was a permissions problem with the
mysql file by going into terminal and running the chmod 777 command
on the file it now allows me to select the database without
entering a username or password. Not sure why it didn't work when
entering the root username and password I can only assume root
didn't have all priviledges either!
Thanks for help.

  • Programatically change username and password if the data source

    Hi all,
    I searched but could not find the answer for how to programamtically change the username /password of the datasource created by the Servers tab under JSC2.
    My database is Oracle and I use the logins to specify the security policy. So I would like to be able to use the username/password when the user logs in and use these info to make the connection to the database server instead of the ones I provide when creating the data source.
    Thanks for your advice,
    DT

    The username/password can be set for the datasource via the CachedRowSet created for the datasource.
    For example if you drop the sample Travel->person table on the visual designer a "personDataProvider" is created. Here's the code to set the username/password.
    personDataProvider.getCachedRowset().setUsername("me");
    personDataProvider.getCachedRowset().setPassword("mypassword");-David

    Thanks in advance..

    user534925,
    Do you want to create a global datasource or one for a specific J2EE application?
    For a global datasource, you can use the "admin.jar" file.
    Type the following command for more details:
    java -jar admin.jar -helpOne of the options is "-installDataSource".
    You should be able to launch "admin.jar" from an "ant" script (I think -- I don't use "ant").
    Sorry, I don't remember how to set up a datasource for a specific application.
    (And I'm too lazy to search for it for you, now :-)
    Good Luck,
    Avi.

    For #5, not Windows, ConfigMgr 2012 R2. Anything before ConfigMgr 2012 R2 is not supported for the 8.1 ADK.
    For the permissions, what accounts are you setting this for. In general, if the share is on the same server, Everyone Full or Read on the Share and System Full or Read on the NTFS should work.
    For the error message, it looks like you are trying to import an OS Image and not an OS Install Package. OS images use a WIM file and OS Install Packages use the entire set of source files from the media. For OS images, you must thus explicitly point it
    to a specific WIM file.

  • Changing the data source from DB2 to ORACLE in SBOP 4.0

    Hi Gurus,
    We have done SBOP 4.0 SP 2 installation successfully on Linux by choosing DB2 as default Database as suggested by SAP as there is some issue with RH LINUX 5.5 version. Now, we need to change the CMS data source back to ORACLE 11G. For that we have to execute cmsdbsetup.sh and go with the option of "copy" (Copy data from another Data Source). We need to provide the target/destination CMS database in my case ORACLE (TNS & CMS user) details. And also we need to provide the source CMS user (DB2) details. As we went with the bundled/default DB2 installation, we are not able to find the cms user name and password (no where during the installation it prompted to provide cms username and password).
    What will be the default cms username /password in DB2?
    Thanks,
    Sandeep

    Hi,
    The work around is to create/add an extra node (SIA Node) with default servers option for the existing CMS and provided my ORACLE CMS username/password along with the TNS Names using cmsdbsetup.sh. Make sure that this new node is visible in the Servers section of the CMC console (i.e. http://<webappserver>:8080/BOE/CMC-->servers) and also see that all the servers should be running. Then you can delete the old SIA which was connected to DB2 from the CMC->servers.
    Thanks,
    Sandeep

  • Excel SSAS Tabular error: An error occurred during an attempt to establish a connection to the external data source

    Hello there,
    I have an Excel report I created which works perfectly fine on my dev environment, but fails on my test environment when I try to do a data refresh.
    The key difference between both dev and test environments is that in dev, everything is installed in one server:
    SharePoint 2013
    SQL 2012: Database Instance, SSAS Instance, SSRS for SharePoint, SSAS POWERPIVOT instance (Powerpivot for SharePoint).
    In my test and production environments, the architecture is different:
    SQL DB Servers in High Availability (irrelevant for this report since it is connecting to the tabular model, just FYI)
    SQL SSAS Tabular server (contains a tabular model that processes data from the SQL DBs).
    2x SharePoint Application Servers (we installed both SSRS and PowerPivot for SharePoint on these servers)
    2x SharePoint FrontEnd Servers (contain the SSRS and PowerPivot add-ins).
    Now in dev, test and production, I can run PowerPivot reports that have been created in SharePoint without any issues. Those reports can access the SSAS Tabular model without any issues, and perform data refresh and OLAP functions (slicing, dicing, etc).
    The problem is with Excel reports (i.e. .xlsx files) uploaded to SharePoint. While I can open them, I am having a hard time performing a data refresh. The error I get is:
    "An error occurred during an attempt to establish a connection to the external data source [...]"
    I ran SQL Profiler on my SSAS Server where the Tabular instance is and I noticed that every time I try to perform a data refresh, I get the following entries:
    Every time I try to perform a data refresh, two entries under the user name ANONYMOUS LOGON.
    Since things work without any issues on my single-server dev environment, I tried running SQL Server Profiler there as well to see what I get.
    As you can see from the above, in the dev environment the query runs without any issues and the user name logged is in fact my username from the dev environment domain. I also have a separated user for the test domain, and another for the production domain.
    Now upon some preliminary investigation I believe this has something to do with the data connection settings in Excel and the usage (or no usage) of secure store. This is what I can vouch for so far:
    Library containing reports is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
    Library containing data connections is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
    The Data Provider referenced in the Excel report (MSOLAP.5) is configured as trusted in SharePoint Central Admin.
    In the Excel report, the Excel Services authentication settings is set as "use authenticated user's account". This wortks fine in the DEV environment.
    Concerning SecureStore, PowerPivot Configurator has configured it the PowerPivotUnnattendedAccount application ID in all the environments. There is
    NO configuration of an Application ID for Excel Services in any of the environments (Dev, test or production). Altough I reckon this is where the solution lies, I am not 100% sure as to why it fails in test and prod. But as I read what I am
    writing, I reckon this is because of the authentication "hops" through servers. Am I right in my assumption?
    Could someone please advise what am I doing wrong in this case? If it is the fact that I am missing an Secure Store entry for Excel Services, I am wondering if someone could advise me on how to set ip up? My confusion is around the "Target Application
    Type" setting.
    Thank you for your time.
    Regards,
    P.

    Hi Rameshwar,
    PowerPivot workbooks contain embedded data connections. To support workbook interaction through slicers and filters, Excel Services must be configured to allow external data access through embedded connection information. External data access is required
    for retrieving PowerPivot data that is loaded on PowerPivot servers in the farm. Please refer to the steps below to solve this issue:
    In Central Administration, in Application Management, click Manage service applications.
    Click Excel Services Application.
    Click Trusted File Location.
    Click http:// or the location you want to configure.
    In External Data, in Allow External Data, click Trusted data connection libraries and embedded.
    Click OK.
    For more information, please see:
    Create a trusted location for PowerPivot sites in Central Administration:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee637428.aspx
    Another reason is Excel Services returns this error when you query PowerPivot data in an Excel workbook that is published to SharePoint, and the SharePoint environment does not have a PowerPivot for SharePoint server, or the SQL Server Analysis
    Services (PowerPivot) service is stopped. Please check this document:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff487858(v=sql.110).aspx
    Finally, here is a good article regarding how to troubleshoot PowerPivot data refresh for your reference. Please see:
    Troubleshooting PowerPivot Data Refresh:

  • Data source executive could not be found

    Hello there, I have recentley did my first dynamic website
    using coldfusion MX 7. After I uploaded all the files in the server
    of godaddy.com on a window platform which supports cfm, I had
    realised that all the DSN routes were still

    Unfortunatley I keep on receiving the error Data source executive
    could not be found! I have also created an access database from the
    godaddy control panel and located the database to a folder called
    accesscf and changed the DSN route as instructed by godaddy.
    Unfortunatley that didn't even work. Could somebody out there be
    generous enough to help me solve this problem? The following is the

    ! is needed only when configuring a data source in the mapViewerConfig.xml file.

  • Using DAO using a JDBC data source with struts

    Hello,
    I have created a number of Data Access Objects and Transfer Objects to use in a non EJB, struts web application I am developing. I had tested these with a kind of a Service Locator custom class to provide access to a JDBC connection. My custom class is a bit clunky and not very configurable. I would like to use a data source using the struts config XML file e.g.
        <data-sources>
            <!-- configuration for commons BasicDataSource -->
            <data-source type="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
                <set-property
                  property="description"
                  value="My MySQL Database Connection" />
                <set-property
                  property="driverClassName"
                  value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
                <set-property
                  property="url"
                  value="jdbc:mysql://localhost/databaseName" />
                <set-property
                  property="username"
                  value="myUsername" />
                <set-property
                  property="password"
                  value="xxxxxxxxx" />
                <set-property
                  property="maxActive"
                  value="10" />
                <set-property
                  property="maxWait"
                  value="5000" />
                <set-property
                  property="defaultAutoCommit"
                  value="false" />
                <set-property
                  property="defaultReadOnly"
                  value="false" />
             </data-source>
        </data-sources>This is great, and precisely the kind of thing I would like to use. However, this datasource is only available AFAIK through a HttpServletRequest instance like in the example I found below...
        public ActionForward execute(ActionMapping mapping, ActionForm form, HttpServletRequest request,
                                     HttpServletResponse response)     throws Exception
            javax.sql.DataSource dataSource = null;
            java.sql.Connection myConnection = null;
            try {
             dataSource = getDataSource(request);
             myConnection = dataSource.getConnection();
             // do what you wish with myConnection
            } catch (SQLException sqle) {
               getServlet().log("Connection.process", sqle);
            } finally {
               //enclose this in a finally block to make
               //sure the connection is closed
               try {
                  if(myConnection != null)
                      myConnection.close();
               } catch (SQLException e) {
                  getServlet().log("Connection.close", e);
            return (mapping.findForward("success"));
        }That would be great if I wanted to use the database connection anywhere near a struts Action (wrong tier!). I want access like that to to a data source in my DAOs. Is it possible for me to use the data-sources aproach to access the DB from my DAOs or will I need to use something like JNDI to do this in a similar way but separate from struts. If so I have a big gap in my knowledge as far as JNDI goes which I need to fill and that will be my next question
    I'm relatively new to using patterns inn Java and any help or pointers would be great.
    Thanks :)

    Create a JAAS Authentication Entry in the Server configuration.
    This should then appear in the drop-down when specifying your DataSource.

  • Report based on custom Query - Question about Data Source

    Hello,
    I am trying to create Crystal reports (EBO R3.1, Oracle 11g Database, CR2008) based on custom queries. Tried using different kinds of Data Sources but getting stuck once I export them to Infoview.
    1. Using Oracle Server: This method works fine on my local & Infoview. But since I have lot of reports, I do not want the DB username/password associated to the report. I neither want BO to prompt username/pwd to my user.
    2. Using ODBC(RDO):
    Again, works fine on my local. Once I export to Infoview, it fails with this error: "Failed to open the connection"
    Which makes sense, because the DSN is created on my local machine and not on the server.
    How and what do I create on the server, so that the reports run?
    I do not know if using ODBC(RDO) is even the right way for creating custom SQL reports.
    I have been reading about Business Views, but not clear on how good they work.
    My goal is to create multiple reports, using custom SQL queries which use some kind of connection to the database that can be managed on the
    server in one place, and used by multiple reports.
    Can any of you please help me here
    Thanks,
    Sowmya.
    Edited by: SBat22 on Apr 13, 2011 5:58 PM

    Thanks for moving it to the right forum!!
    But, if I setup in CMC, a default username/password that the report needs....what would happen if my password changes?
    I would need to go to each and every report and update the password.
    I am looking for using one common "connection" for multiple reports. So that, when passwords change, all I update is in one central location.
    Can anyone please help!
    Thanks,
    Sowmya.

  • Crystal ActiveX Runtime Lib: Change text data source path at run time.

    We have some PCs running Crystal Reports 10 and some running CR 9 and 8.5. For each PC, we set up a System DSN ODBC data source (in Control Panel - Administrative Tools) for pulling data from text files to
    generate reports.
    Recently we wrote some routines (see the Visual Basic example at the
    end of this message) to change the path of the data files at runtime.
    According to the Crystal Reports Technical Reference Guide, we may use
    the method LogOnServer() of an Application object or an DatabaseTable
    object. However, we find that this does not work: the PrintOut()
    method only pulls data from the default path as configured for the
    System DSN, not from the path passed as the third parameter of
    LogOnServer(). It does not return any error message.
    We have also tried to use SetTableLocation() method, and it still does
    not work.
    Would any experts examine our code below and advise what we are missing? Thanks.
    For the following VB example, we have:
    System DSN Name: AP_WORKSHEET
    Driver: Microsoft Text Driver
    Database Directory: D:\0ood2 (i.e. the default path)
    Crystal Report Document: D:\3g\run\Vision\apcyto\Reports\crBlockWS.rpt
    (Which specifies that the data source text file name is BlockWS.txt)
    Purpose : We would like to read the data source text file from
    D:\0ood1 instead of the default path.
    Following is the code of the VB macro:
    Sub test()
    Rem In this version of the subroutine, we call
    Rem DatabaseTable.LogOnServer() and "Rem"ed out
    Rem Application.LogOnServer() and SetTableLocation().
    Rem We have un"Rem"ed each of them and "Rem"ed others and try to run.
    Rem In all runs, data are pulled from the default file
    Rem D:\0ood2\BlockWS.txt instead of D:\0ood1\BlockWE.txt.
    Dim crxapp As CRAXDRT.Application
    Dim crxRep As CRAXDRT.Report
    Dim crxDB As CRAXDRT.Database
    Dim crxTab As CRAXDRT.DatabaseTable
    Dim crxConnPs As CRAXDRT.ConnectionProperties
    Dim crxConnP As CRAXDRT.ConnectionProperty
    Dim apropSubLoc As String
    Dim apropConnBufStr As String
    Set crxapp = CreateObject("CrystalRuntime.Application")
    Rem
    crxapp.LogOnServer "p2sodbc.dll", "AP_WORKSHEET", "<CRWDC>DBQ=D:\0ood1",
    Set crxRep = crxapp.OpenReport
    ("D:\3g\run\Vision\apcyto\Reports\crBlockWS.rpt")
    Set crxDB = crxRep.Database
    Set crxTab = crxRep.Database.Tables(1)
    apropConnBufStr = crxTab.ConnectBufferString
    apropSubLoc = crxTab.SubLocation
    crxDB.LogOnServer "p2sodbc.dll", "AP_WORKSHEET", "<CRWDC>DBQ=D:\0ood1",
    Rem crxTab.SetTableLocation "D:\0ood1\BlockWS.txt", apropSubLoc, "DSN="
    Rem Set crxConnPs = crxTab.ConnectionProperties
    Rem Set crxConnP = crxConnPs.Item("DSN")
    Rem crxConnP.Value = "AP_WORKSHEET"
    Rem Set crxConnP = crxConnPs.Item("Database")
    Rem crxConnP.Value = "D:\0ood1\BlockWS.txt"
    Rem crxTab.Location = "BlockWS.txt"
    crxRep.DiscardSavedData
    crxRep.PrinterSetup (0)
    crxRep.PrintOut
    End Sub
    For VB macros, the problem exists in all of CR 8.5, 9 and 10. However,
    for another platform we are using, Unify Vision 4GL, it works for CR
    8.5 while not working for CR 9 and 10.
    Following is the source code in Unify Vision 4GL. This language may
    not be popular, but I thin you are about to see how it calls the
    Runtime Library methods LogOnServer(), OpenReport(), PrinterSetup() and
    PrintOut().

    How to change the data source
    This example demonstrates how to change the data source from native Access to an OLEDB (ADO) data source by using the ConnectionProperty Object, as well as how to change the table name by using the Location property of the DatabaseTable Object.

    1. Do not repeatedly connect to the database, execute a SQL statement, and disconnect from the database - connect once and stay connected.
    2. Use bind variables where possible in SQL statements for constants (literals) which might change from one execution to the next - let me know if you need s code example showing bind variable usage in Excel.

  • ODBC data source administrator

    Hi, I have installed Oracle ODBC driver 10.2.02. I'm trying to add a system data source in System DSN tab in Control panel/administrator tools/data source(ODBC).
    In the Oracle ODBC Driver configuration dialog, I select the TNS service name from the drop-down list, ORCL_SALESBOX, which points to the SALESBOX machine where Oracle database rsides.
    Specify SH as user ID, then click "Test Connection", then specify its password, then click OK, In a few seconds, the message appears withe following text,
    Unable to connect
    SQLState=08004
    [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12154:TNS:Could not resolve the connect identifier speicifed.
    I checked the Net Manager, ORCL_SALESBOX is defined as the SALESBOX, with port as 1521, sid as ORCL.
    I don't know why the connect identifier could not be resolved by ODBC. I suspect SQL*Net is needed, and am not sure if it's installed at the time my ODBC driver was installed.
    Could you shed some light light on this? How do you add data source in ODBC administrator?
    Thanks a lot,

    Did u first tried to login with this username/password@connct_string on sqlplus or anyother dev tools. If this things works fine then there should be some issues with ODBC driver .

  • 903/902/BC4J can't get data-sources.xml conn pooling to work in production; help

    I have several BC4J ears deployed to a 903 instance of OC4J being configured as a standalone
    instance. I've had this problem since I started deploying in development on 902. So it's
    some basic problem that I've not mastered.
    I can't get data-sources.xml managed connection pooling to actually pool conn's. I'm wanting
    to declare my jndi jdbc source connection pool in j2ee/home/config/data-sources.xml.
    Have all BC4J apps get conns from this JNDI JDBC pool. I've removed all data-sources.xml from my BC4J ears,
    and published the jndi jdbc source in my oc4j common data-sources.xml. I've tested that this is
    the place controlling the conn URL/login passwd by commenting it out of config/data-sources.xml
    and my BC4J apps then throw exceptions, can't get conn.
    I've set the oc4j startup cmd line with the BC4J property to enabled connection pooling:
    -Djbo.doconnectionpooling=true
    symptom
    Connections are created and closed. Instead of being put back into the pool managed by oc4j,
    what ever BC4J is doing or my data-sources.xml is doing, the connections are just being created and
    closed.
    I can verify this via (solaris) lsof and netstat, where I see my oc4j instance under test load
    with only 1 or 2 conns to the db box, and the ephemeral port is tumbling, meaning a new socket is
    being opened for each conn. ;( grrrrrrr
    Does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening?
    Thanks, curt
    my data-sources.xml
    <data-sources>
         <data-source
            class="com.evermind.sql.DriverManagerDataSource"
            connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
            ejb-location="jdbc/DEVDS"
            location="jdbc/DEVCoreDS"
            name="DEVDS"
            password="j2train"
            pooled-location="jdbc/DEVPooledDS"
            url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.2.1.30:1521:GDOC"
            username="jscribe"
            xa-location="jdbc/xa/DEVXADS"
            inactivity-timeout="300"
            max-connections="50"
            min-connections="40"
        />
    </data-sources>

    I've run another test using local data-source.xml, that's packaged in the .ear. Still
    pooling under BC4J doesn't work??
    A piece of info is that the 903 oc4j release notes states that global conn pooling doesn't
    work. Infering that the j2ee/home/config/data-sources.xml data sources aren't pooled or ??
    I just tested so called local connection pooling, where I edited the data-sources.xml that
    gets packaged in the ear, to include the min/max params and re-ran my test.
    Still, the AM creates a new conn, it's to a new socket, and closes the conn when done. Causing
    each conn to not be pooled, rather opened then closed to the DB box. As verified with lsof and
    netstat, checking the ephemeral port # on the DB box side, always changes, meaning it's a
    new socket and not an old pooled conn socket.
    ???? What the heck??
    Surely if the AM conn check out / return code works properly, OC4J's pooling JDBC driver would
    pool and not close the socket??
    Has anywone gotten JDBC Datasource connections in BC4J to actually be pooled under OC4J??
    Since I couldn't get this to work in my early 902 oc4j testing, and now can't get it to work
    still under 903 OC4J, either it's my config or BC4J AM's code or OC4J?
    Any thoughts on how to figure out what's not configed correctly or has a bug?
    Thanks, curt
