How do I connect to a database on a different machine(URGENT PLEASE)

Hello all
I have a Web server which is on a Linux box but the database I wish to connect to is on Windows NT. How can I connect to the data source.
Both Linux and Windows machines are on the same network at the moment but will change later on.
Please e-mail on [email protected]
thanxs

I think there are 3 ways to do so
1. JDBC
2. ODBC-JDBC bridge
3. don't remember the third
I would check it with JDBC section of the javasoft site. Also since your web server is on a linux box, you probably will not be able to use ODBC-JDBC bridge. I would try the JDBC method, but that requires you to get the JDBC driver for the database that you are trying to connect to!
good luck

Connecting is as good as u do in anyother environment...
I have a Web server which is on a Linux box but the
database I wish to connect to is on Windows NT. How
can I connect to the data source.You mean connect to database or DataSource ? If you are planning to lookup a data source and get a connection... you have to create a datastore first and give a jndi name so that you can lookup and get a connection....
Both Linux and Windows machines are on the same
network at the moment but will change later on.This will not give any problem ..

How can I connect to a database from ipaq with cldc??

how can I connect to a database from ipaq with cldc??

Hi Again
There is a library by Mimer which allows you do connect to a Mimer SQL Server, don't know must about it, but here is a link.
http://developer.mimer.com/
If that doesn't suit you, I suspect that you will have to use some sort of proxy solution. Either by creating a servlet to accept the sql string you want to send, or by creating your own custom proxy server running J2EE. The servlet or the proxy server must be able to receive an SQL String, do the query to the actual database and return the results in some sort of format to the mobile device. Maybe just a space delimited string.
Hope this helps

How do with connect to informix database?

how do with connect to informix database?I think use own sminformix.jar with java studio creator

Two steps:
1. Tell Creator about the Informix drivers:
Data Sources -> Edit Database Server Types -> New
Navigate to the appropriate jar files; besides sminformix.jar, you will need smbase.jar and smutil.jar. They can be found in the Java Studio Creator release, for use within the IDE.
Fill in the other parts of the dialog. I don't know what form Informix URL's take; you may need to look on the Informix site for that.
2. Create an Informix Data Source, using the newly defined Server Type.

Each app server provides their own jndi factory class. For ex for weblogic it is weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory. SInce you are using sun app server, check if there are any examples to find out or the docs.
private static String url="http://localhost:4848
Since the client is in a different machine the localhost is not going to work here. provide the url or the machine name of the system in which ur sunapp server is running. In addition u will need to have the stubs of the remote interfaces in ur client machine.

How can I connect to my database ORACLE from JavafX?

Hi! ¿Anybody have a example to learn how could connect my ORACLE database from my javafx application?

Just use JDBC like you do in a regular Java program.
Either you translate the code to JavaFX (creating Java objects, etc.) or you do a Java layer to simplify access.

How can I connect to a database using Java Web Start?

When I run the application without Java Web Start, the program can get the driver and connect to the database. However, when I try to use this same application with Java Web Start, the program can not load the driver. Why is this happening? I am using a mySql database driver.

I assume you are trying to connect using JDBC, are did you include the jdbc jar in your resources ?

How can i connect to remote database from netbeans

Hi,
I have got MySQL database server installed and running on a different machine. Is there any way to connect and browse database remotely using netbeans 5.5?
I have added connector/driver for that database. i can connect and browse the database with host: "localhost" and port number. But when i specified the ip address of that machine, it gives me error.
Can anyone help please.
cheers.

well, its not working in App server either.
In App server admin console, on that connection pool if i define servername as "localhost", it works fine. If i change it to the remote machine's ip address, then it doesn't work.
Any idea will be appreciated.
cheers.

How can I connect to WinCC database (best by use of OLE DB provider)?

Post Author: MarkusR
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Hello,
if I connect to the WinCC database by using the WinCC OLE DB provider I do not get the tables I expect.
E.g. I would like to see the AlgViewEnu or other tables/views of AlarmLogging or TagLogging.
Who can help?

Hi
I have not used asp.net with CS4, due to it using an old version of the framework, so unfortunately I cannot really help in solving the problem. But I can remember having a similar problem with DW8, a tutorial for connecting to the database in DW8 is - http://www.webdesign.org/html-and-css/tutorials/asp-net-in-dreamweaver-8.7367.html. I also seem to remember that the connection required the old, (very old) Jet4 access database connector to be installed to work correctly.
These problems, and the fact that MS keeps updating the framework every year or so, (which are often not backwardly compatible) are why I use Visual Studio for .net C# sites, and no longer actively develop them, but I must admit I still prefer C# to PHP.
