How to know MS Access Database is down through Java

How i would know whether MS Access DataBase is down?
Is there any specific code for it in Java
Need a quick reply

How i would know whether MS Access DataBase is down?"down"? If the file system on which it's running is unavailable, that's the best you can do. If you can't connect, it's "down".
Is there any specific code for it in JavaNo. Doesn't sound very platform-independent.

  • Based on a SQLException how to know if the database is down?

    Hi
    How can I know based on a SQLException that the database is down?. I know I can check the errorCode but which error codes indicate that the database is DOWN or not available?
    Regards,
    Néstor Boscán

    If the SQLException is IO exception: Connection refused, one of the causes is that the database instance has not been started. If the SQLException is
    IO exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection., one of the causes is that the database TNSListener has not been started.

  • How to create a ms-access database at runtime using java

    hi, this is ravi kiran,
    i have a situation where i need to create a new ms-access database with one table in it at runtime(when user clicks on some button).
    i have been searching many sites to know how to do this in java, but i didnot find any thing useful.
    plz tell me how to do this in java.
    plz help me, its urgent
    thanx in advance.

    Here's how I did it. Research does help, but sometimes looking at others code does too... You do have to have a dummy file that you made with access though. You can't just make a file file.mdb (it will be corrupt)
         public void createDatabase(String database) throws SQLException{
              try{
                   // This file needs to have been created with MS Access
                   File dbfile = new File(this.dataBaseDir + "dummy.mdb");
                   // This is the new database file being made
                   File newFile = new File(this.dataBaseDir + database + ".mdb");
                   // Copy all bytes from dummy file to new DB file.
                   FileInputStream instream = new FileInputStream(dbfile);
                   FileOutputStream ostream = new FileOutputStream(newFile);
                   int numBytes = instream.available();
                   byte inBytes[] = new byte[numBytes];
                   instream.read(inBytes, 0, numBytes);
                   ostream.write(inBytes, 0, numBytes);
              catch(FileNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace();}
              catch(IOException e) { e.printStackTrace();}
              if(DEBUG) System.out.println("creating the " + database + " database");

  • How to reference MS Access database in ColdFusion MX 7 on 64-bit Windows

    I am migrating customers from:
    Windows 2000 Server (fully patched)
    Internet Information Services (IIS) 5
    ColdFusion 5
    to:
    Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition (fully patched)
    Internet Information Services (IIS) 6 (running in 32-bit
    mode)
    ColdFusion MX 7 (7.0.2) Standard
    Unfortunately, some of these existing customers are still
    using Microsoft Access databases instead of SQL Server. Having all
    of these existing customers migrate to SQL Server is not yet
    practical. On the old Windows 2000 / ColdFusion 5 server, they are
    using OLE DB data sources to reference the MS Access databases
    using the "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" provider. None are configured
    to use ODBC drivers when referencing MS Access or SQL Server.
    I have yet to figure out how to get ColdFusion MX 7 to:
    - Create a data source that references MS Access databases on
    64-bit Windows.
    - Reference an existing MS Access data source created with
    the 32-bit version of the ODBC Data Source Manager on 64-bit
    Windows.
    A bit of background information regarding MS Access on 64-bit
    Windows:
    - At the time of this writing, Microsoft has not
    created/released 64-bit drivers for Microsoft Access and it's
    unlikely they ever will, for understandable reasons.
    - Contrary to seemingly popular belief, the Microsoft Jet 4.0
    Database Engine does exist on 64-bit Windows. See the following
    regarding version and file location information:
    How to obtain the latest service pack for the Microsoft Jet
    4.0 Database Engine
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/239114
    - You CAN create MS Access based data sources within 64-bit
    Windows, but they have to be made using the 32-bit version of "ODBC
    Data Source Manager". I'm assuming these DSNs may only be used by
    32-bit applications, but I have not tested that theory.
    32-bit data sources:
    ODBC Data Source Manager:
    %SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
    Registry location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC
    Default file DSN directory:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\ODBC\Data Sources
    64-bit data sources:
    ODBC Data Source Manager:
    %SystemRoot%\system32\odbcad32.exe
    Registry location:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC
    Default file DSN directory:
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\ODBC\Data Sources
    The 64-bit version of "ODBC Data Source Manager" (under
    Administrative Tools) only show "SQL Server" and/or "SQL Native
    Client" as options when creating new data sources, unless
    third-party software is installed that supplies additional drivers.
    The 32-bit version of "ODBC Data Source Manager" (by default,
    there is no shortcut for this in the Start menu) shows the typical
    drivers seen on 32-bit versions of Windows, including SQL Server,
    SQL Native Client, Microsoft Access, Excel, FoxPro, Paradox, etc.
    When using ColdFusion Administrator in ColdFusion MX 7.0.2 in
    64-bit Windows 2003 (IIS is running in 32-bit mode to allow
    ColdFusion MX 7 to function at all), two problems are encountered
    when dealing with MS Access (and presumably other 32-bit drivers).
    In both cases, ColdFusion is trying to reference the registry
    location for 64-bit data sources instead of 32-bit:
    1. Creating a new data source within ColdFusion
    Administrator:
    Data Source Name: whatever
    Driver: Microsoft Access
    CF Data Source Name: whatever
    Database file: (physical path to whatever.mdb)
    (other settings are irrelvant for this example)
    Error generated when submitting:
    Unable to update the NT registry.
    Cannot open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC
    Data Sources: Windows error number 5 occurred.Access is denied.
    ColdFusion stores the data source, however a "verify"
    generates the following error:
    Connection verification failed for data source: whatever
    java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC
    Driver][ODBC Socket]internal error: Data source name not found and
    no default driver specified
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
    [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC Driver][ODBC Socket]internal error:
    Data source name not found and no default driver specified
    2. Creating the data source using the 32-bit version of "ODBC
    Data Source Manager" then trying to reference it with ColdFusion:
    ODBC Data Source Manager:
    System DSN or File DSN:
    Name: whatever
    Driver: Microsoft Access Driver (.mdb)
    Database: (physical path to whatever.mdb)
    (creation is successful within ODBC Data Source Manager)
    Reference the above DSN within ColdFusion Administrator:
    Data Source Name: whatever
    Driver: ODBC Socket
    Error generated when submitting:
    Error accessing available odbc datasources. - Cannot open
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\ODBC Data Sources:
    Windows error 2 occurred.The system cannot find the file specified.
    ColdFusion MX 7 can't find the 32-bit data source on 64-bit
    Windows because it's looking for it in the wrong registry location.
    Can ColdFusion MX 7 be configured to look in
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\ODBC
    instead of
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC
    on a 64-bit Windows machine?

    Paul,
    Thanks for the insight on this. Regarding the initial problem
    I ran into with creating Access based DSNs, very early-on, I
    noticed there were two different driver options for Access
    displayed within ColdFusion MX 7 Administrator:
    Microsoft Access
    Microsoft Access with Unicode
    For reasons I'm am still baffled over, I somehow completely
    forgot about and through the wonders of apparent tunnel vision,
    completely overlooked the "Microsoft Access with Unicode" driver
    option when I was running through my tests.
    At your seemingly-obvious suggestion, I created a data source
    using the Microsoft Access with Unicode driver and it worked
    perfectly fine with the one customer's web site I'm using for
    testing (of course, this is a copy--the production site is still
    housed on the old ColdFusion 5 server). This obviously doesn't
    actually fix the underlying issue with ColdFusion looking in the
    wrong part of the registry on 64-bit Windows, but at least when it
    comes to dealing with Access databases, your suggestion of using
    the Microsoft Access with Unicode driver appears to be a functional
    work-around. So long as there aren't any surprises waiting for me,
    hopefully this will also work for the remaining ColdFusion sites I
    have to migrate that are using Access databases.
    Since you mentioned JDBC drivers in comparison with ODBC, I'm
    pointing out a couple of references in case they're helpful to
    anyone following this thread:
    ColdFusion MX 7 - About JDBC
    http://livedocs.adobe.com/coldfusion/7/htmldocs/00001736.htm
    Types of JDBC technology drivers
    http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc/driverdesc.html
    http://java.sun.com/products/jdbc/
    I don't actually develop anything in ColdFusion, so I'm
    dealing with all of this from a server administration standpoint
    since we do have some domain hosting customers that do develop or
    at least have existing ColdFusion based sites. I am all
    too-familiar with the caveats of using Access in any kind of
    production or heavily used environment and have spent years keeping
    users away from ODBC. For ColdFusion users, that meant creating OLE
    DB DSNs and often having to fix poorly written SQL statements and
    fixing ColdFusion date-related values and boolean values (the
    common problems encountered when switching CF / MS Access users
    from ODBC to OLE DB). I can only recall running into problems with
    a single SQL Server based ColdFusion site when migrating from ODBC
    to OLE DB. That customer never did get their many coding problems
    fixed, so they're the only ones still using ODBC in CF. I have no
    idea what'll happen when that one site gets migrated over--if it'll
    even work. Obviously a lot of things have changed between
    ColdFusion 5 and the MX versions that have come along afterward.
    Thanks again for the Access with Unicode driver tip and JDBC
    info. It looks like I can finally start moving forward again with
    the site migration process.

  • How to know whether the database is using SPFILE or PFILE

    How can i know whether the database is using SPFILE or PFILE.
    There are both initSID.ora and spfileSID.ora in default location.
    The registry entry for ORA_SID_PFILE is C:\oracle\ora90\database\initSID.ora
    Also, if it is using SPFILE than how can i modify the non dynamic parameters when the database is in the close state.
    Manu

    If you do not specify a path of a pfile , when you actually startup a database , then it will be use your pfile , if you specify a path explicitly fot a pfile , then it'll use your pfile.
    Also, if it is using SPFILE than how can i modify the non dynamic parameters when the database is in the close state.sql > create spfile from pfile ;
    the spfile will syncronise with pfile .

  • Access database query resultset in java scriptlet

    Question:
    1) I am Creating a web page and plotting points on the page:
    2) Database query results in decimal values dec_latitude and dec_longiitude.
    3) Perform calculations on lati. & long. in a java scriptlet to create a plot position (xpos, ypos).
    4) Send the xpos and ypos back to the java server page
    5) Use <IMG and absolute positioning to plot the point at position xpos, and ypos.
    6) Repeat until all rows in the query result set have been plotted.
    I don't know how to pass the dec_latitude and dec_longitude to the java scriptlet.
    After the java scriptlet calculation translates the latitude and longitude
    into xpos and ypos, I need to pass the xpos and ypos back to the java server page so that a data point is plotted on a map at position xpos, ypos.
    I tried many ways of doing it but am just guessing as
    to how to pass the data.
    Thanks in Advance. - John
    Here is what I am trying so far .... see snippet below:
    The code below results in a runtime error.
    Am I supposed to create a java object and access that in the java scriptlet? Can the java scriptlet access the latvar and longvar created during the "<c:set var="latvar"... ?
    If not, what mechanisum do I use to access the resulting colums: dec_latitude and dec_longitude? I need the java scriptlet to convert the
    dec_latitude and dec_longitude into a display position based on the number of pixels from the TOP and LEFT (xpos, ypos). Then plot of the data point using the IMG and (xpos, ypos). This will overlay a map whose z-index is lower than the plotted data point.

    I still get a runtime error: I translated the code you gave to code below .... which I think is equivalent. See Below: I'm still learning about this stuff so I may not have not translated this properly. Do
