Driver for 2pc for SQL Server 2000

Hi,Can anybody please tell me which driver to use for achieving 2pc in SQL
          Server 2000.Any free drivers as well as commercial drivers.
          Thanking in advance,
          Vikash Sharma
          

          Hi,
          This problem are fixed in release 4.0 of i-net OPTA.
          But there exist same problems with XADataSources in the WLS.
          for example that all Statements and ResultSets are closed on a UserTransaction.commit()

  • Convert from String to Date for storing in SQL Server 2000

    Hi,
    I've accepted some values from a user using a form in HTML.Now using Servlets I transfer the value to my java code .
    I want to know how can I convert a DATE accepted from the user thats presently in "String" format to the "datetime" format for SQL Server2000.
    Please guide me with some steps and I shall be grateful.
    Thanks

    The java.text.SImpleDateFormat class is most probably of use.
    SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("dd/MM/yyyy");
    String enteredDate = "25/12/2006";
    java.util.Date utilDate = sdf.parse(enteredDate);
    java.sql.Date sqlDate = new java.sql.Date(utilDate.getTime());You can then use the java.sql.Date with the "setDate()" method of a prepared statement. This method would be database independant, as you are setting an actual date, not depending on a specific format on the database end.

  • Which Driver for MS SQL-Server 2000

    Hello,
    i need to access a MS SQL-Server 2000 and want to ask which driver you think is the best one for this problem.
    I am not a big fan of using beta-Software, and i do not need the newest state-of-the-art features. Right now i also do not need Connection-Pooling.
    Only a few SQL SELECT/UPDATE-Statements nothing more.
    But maybe in not far away future, Conn-Pooling and Procedure-Calls could be interesting. And i think Type 3 or 4 would be the best decision.
    The Software will run on NT, but i do not want to use the JDBC/ODBC-Bridge, because it is so unbelievable slow.
    I am interested in WHICH DRIVER you USE, AND especially which drivers you DO NOT USE ANYMORE, and why.
    It would be great, if anyone could help me, finding the best solution.
    P.S.: The price of the driver: It would be good, when it is for free. But if you know a good commercial driver i am also interested in.
    P.P.S: Yes, i have searched for drivers under http://servlet.java.sun.com/products/jdbc/drivers. But there are 37 different Type 3/4 drivers.

    You can try the jtds project .Search for it in www.sourceforge.net. It is derived from FreeTDS JDBC driver. Both of them are Type 4 JDBC drivers. So far I have tried both of them a few years ago. And jtds is more updated (during those time, not sure what the status is right now)
    Or, you can get Microsofts own JDBC driver

  • Connecting to SQL Server 2000 with MS SQL Server Driver for JDBC

    Hi,
    I am brand new to JDBC . I have installed JDBC driver (for JDBC 2.0) from the Microsoft site and made relevant changes to the class path variable to include the driver paths, as suggested in the driver help documnnts. I have written a simple java code to register. But i get "class NotFound" error.

    Hi MoD,
    This is the exact command I used for compiling
    C:\>javac -classpath "c:\java;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver
    for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver f
    or JDBC\lib\msbase.jar;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDB
    C\lib\msutil.jar" c:\java\Test.java
    To Execute I used
    C:\>java -classpath "c:\java;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver
    for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver f
    or JDBC\lib\msbase.jar;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDB
    C\lib\msutil.jar" c:\java\Test
    In fact it kept thrwing up the Class Not Found error for the above commands.
    But as U suggested I removed the classpath and executed both javac and java commands without classpath clause , and guess what it worked for the line
    Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");
    (i.e., it dint throw any exception like before). So can I assume that driver is successfully registered?
    I tried using Jcreator for compile and run. But I got the same error msg as the commands given above with calsspath caluse. Is there a way around for this to make it work from an external editing tool like Jcreator apart from removing the classpath option from the JDKTool optional setting(doing this did not help for me)
    Also one last favor: How do I connect with the trusted connection option? (i.e. it should use already logged in windows authentification login)
    Thanks for all U'r help. I appreciate it very much.

  • Problem of loading the MS SQL Server 2000 driver for JDBC

    Thanks for your reply.
    I have already tried to give the full class path of .jar files to the System and User Variables but received the same error. I am doing BCA and developing my very first Project on Java.
    Please, tell me one thing. When I had installed MS SQL Server 2000 at my system first time then the 3 JAR files were present in the lib folder and all my codings of connectivity were working properly. Then due to some reasons, I had to format C drive and installed the MS SQL Server 2000 again then in the lib folder the 3 JAR files were not there. How it has happened? Then, I installed the downloaded driver of MS SQL Server 2000 for JDBC 1.4 then the JAR files were installed in the related downloaded driver folder. I manually copied them to the lib folder of MS SQL Server and gave that path to the Classpath of System and User Variables, but it didn't work.
    I am not understanding the reason that The Software which worked previously is not working correctly in second time of installing.
    I am using command line to develop my stand-alone project. Please help me.

    Don't bother with the System CLASSPATH, more often than not, it is not even used.
    When running from an IDE, set the project's library preferences.
    When running from a web container/application server configure the applications libraries in the server/container, see it's documentation.
    When running an applet, configure the [ codebase and/or archive |http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/applet/html.html] tags properly.
    When running from the command line with the [ "-cp" |http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/technotes/tools/solaris/java.html] option, the System CLASSPATH is ignored.
    When running from the command line with the "-jar" option, both the System CLASSPATH path and the "-cp" option are ignored, configure the [manifest file|http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/deployment/jar/downman.html] properly.
    When running any other way, the System CLASSPATH might be used.

    hey i also have this problem i have been looking for solution for this problem for along time i tried every possible solution i tried every service pack for the SQL but it didn't connect to the port!!!
    it's a network problem ur java code is correct dont worry about it.
    finally i had to install MySQL and it's work fine now but if u insist on usning SQL u have to use the JDBC-ODBC Bridge it will work by :
    first add data source database , follow these steps
    1- go to Administrative tools
    2-Data Sources(ODBC)
    3-System DNS tab and add then choose SQL SERVER the last option then finish
    4-write the name; Note: this name is the one that u will write in ur URL for example if u write Hello the URL will be "jdbc:odbc:Hello"
    5- choose the server, its recommended to write "." or (local)
    6-change the database to its an important step to choose the database that u want to use, choose northwind if u want to use it
    finish
    second
    adding this code:
    import java.sql.*;
    class JdbcTest1 { 
    public static void main (String[] args) { 
    try { 
    // Step 1: Load the JDBC driver.
    Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
    // Step 2: Establish the connection to the database.
    String url = "jdbc:odbc:Hello";
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url,"user1","password");
    } catch (Exception e) { 
    System.err.println("Got an exception! ");
    System.err.println(e.getMessage());
    it will work without any problems

    You need to switch SQL server to just use SQL Server authentication or both. The problem is that it is looking for a Windows NT account for nakhter with the password java. We get this all the time on new SQL Server installs if you just take the defaults.

    The way you are connecting, the default database used will be 'master' and i guess that the table PEC_COUNTRY was defined in another database.
    If it is the case you need to specify the database name.
    connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://S0MALMUERTA:1433;DatabaseName=yourdb;user=sa;password=");

  • Regarding Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC (2.2.0019)

    I have downloaded and installed Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC (2.2.0019). Now i have to configure it for my development purpose. Can i use this driver for my development purpose or not. If yes does it create any kind of problem in future when i change the platform. My development should not depend on driver and database.
    Can i use any other driver provided by sun microsystem. If yes let me know where can i download and configure it.
    Waiting for the updates ASAP

    See, the bridge, being a type 1 driver has
    river has all the inherent limitations of that type
    drivers, due to the extra levels the data must
    passthrough inthe journey between the DB and the
    client. Also the use of native code.. makes it
    unsuitable to be used in applets.. the odbc should be
    configured in the client for this driver to work. etc.
    etc.
    It may be stable and useful for some
    for some applications.. but for sccenarios where one
    needs the solution tobe platform independent, ...By definition that would be the case. Of course the odbc-bridge does work on Windows, Solaris and Linux. So what other platform were you thinking about?
    ... less dependent on the user configuration,The bridge doesn't need any configuration. Or at least not any more than any other driver. The ODBC driver of course does need configuration.
    ...needs the minimum preparations from theuser, and above all give
    the fastest response time for him, the bridge cannot
    beat type 4 drivers. You are going to have to provide a link for that particular performance quote. Given that performance is impact most severely by requirements then design and finally by round trip time to the database I doubt that for applications (rather than benchmarks) that any difference is going to be significant.
    the problem i think was my use of
    my use of 'commercial' that u pointed out..
    anyway.. u are of course right if what u intended was
    stability only. but what i intended with that word was
    different .. sorry for creating the confusion.
    And it still seems like you are implying that it is not suitable for deployment in production systems. And as I pointed out I did deploy it in a large scale production system.
    I am not saying that type 4 drivers do not have a place nor that they do not have advantages, but their mere existance does not prove that they are a better choice for all installations.

    What is wrong and is there someone that can help me out?
    I have installed Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC and set the path like this in the system, advance, environment variable:
    .;D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msbase.jar;D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msutil.jar;D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar
    This is the source code i use to test the connection:
    import java.sql.*;
    public class Exercise2_1 {
    static String driver = ("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");
    static String url= "jdbc:microsoft:MinTest;ah;modeerf";//sqlserver://H:1433;user=ah;password=modeerf";
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    try {
         Class.forName(driver).newInstance();
         System.out.println("Loaded driver");
         Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
         System.out.println("Connected to database");
         conn.close();
         System.out.println("Closed connection");
    catch (Throwable e) { System.err.println(e.getMessage()); }

    You printed the error message associated with the exception but didn't print the type of the exception. com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver was probably a ClassNotFoundException meaning that the VM couldn't find the jars.
    You say you put the jars in the path. They should actually be in the class path. Either set the CLASSPATH environment variable or pass it in to the Java VM via the -cp option.
    One more thing. Seeing as the paths that you installed the JDBC driver into contain spaces you may need to put quotes around the path names or use the MSDOS short names for those directories.
