How to use datasources to connect to database ?

I have the following Problem
I have two identical databases, one is the development database, the other one the production database.
Now I need to find a way, how I can deploy an bc4j-application in local mode that way, that if the application is deployed to server 1 it connects to database 1 and if deployed to server 2 it connects to database 2.
JDBC connection strings do not work as the connection is deployed with the application. So the application always connects to the same database.
I thought datasources might be the solution. So I tried to define a datasource MyDS in the data-sources.xml file and specified it in the Configuration Wizard as the connection to use.
But unfortunately this does not work and i do not know why:
If I try to connect using the tester and using this datasource I get the following exception:
Level #3: javax.naming.noInitialContextException
Can anyone help me, what this means? How can I get around this using the BC4J Framework? Is there any "HowTo" Document which describes using datasources with BC4J?

Frank,
I've sorted this stuff out to some extent. Have a look at this thread:
re:? How: multiple myAppWar.ear to use OC4J's data-sources.xml pooling?
If this isn't all you need, then search on data-source.xml
and read other threads also I may have posted helps on
other threads so if you search on data-source.xml and my handle (curt504) it brings up all the threads that I posted to.
Not to say I've solved all your problems, but I solved mine anyway. :)
Good luck,
curt

How to use JDBC to connect informix database

Dear all,
I want my client application to connect informix database by using JDBC. The JDBC driver has been installed successfully in the client computer (Win2000). The informix 5.0 resides the a Unix server named "dbserver". The following is my java program.
========================
import java.sql.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class Application1 {
public static void main(String[] args) {
Connection conn;
try
Class.forName("com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver");
catch (Exception e)
System.out.println("Error "+e.getmessage());
e.printStackTrace();
return;
System.out.println("It is ok");
try
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:informix-sqli://dbserver:1526:INFORMIXSERVER=dbserver;username=test;password=******");
catch (SQLException e)
System.out.println("ERROR ."+e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
return;
System.out.println("All is fine");
===========================
However, the error appears mentioning "Attempt to connect to database server (dbserver) failed." I don't know what the problem is because my informix database server is exactly "dbserver".
Kindly need help from you guys. Thanks in advance.
Kevin

Hi,
Plz try this (instead of 'username' use 'user') ...
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:informix-sqli://dbserer:1526:INFORMIXSERVER=dbserver;user=test;password=*****");
or this (pass the username and password as params)....
DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:informix-sqli://dbserer:1526:INFORMIXSERVER=dbserver" , "test" , "*****" );
Hope this helps

How to use DataSource and External transaction in 9ias?

I'm working on a project that the application server needs to connect to over 100 databases.
I'd like to use connection pooling and external transaction service defined in OC4J's Datasources.
I wonder if anyone has an example of using datasource and external transaction service for OC4J.
Right now, I export toplink project to a java source and do the initialization there manually but I don't know how to use Datasource to get connections and how to use the external transaction service in the java code for OC4J.
I really appreciate you help.
Wei

Here is a fill in the blank example on how you could set this up through code:
Project project = new MyProject();
// alternatively, use the XMLProjectReader
server = project.createServerSession();
server.getLogin().useExternalConnectionPooling();
server.getLogin().setConnector(new JNDIConnector(new javax.naming.InitialContext(), "jdbc/DataSourceName"));
// the next line depends on the type of driver you want to use.
server.getLogin().useOracleThinJDBCDriver();
server.getLogin().useOracle();
server.getLogin().setUserName("username");
server.getLogin().setPassword("password");
server.getLogin().useExternalTransactionController();
server.setExternalTransactionController(new Oracle9iJTSExternalTransactionController());
server.logMessages();
server.login();

how to used the internet connection adsl on my computer by nokia n73 me
i whant used the adsl connection in nokia n73 me by Bluetooth or cable
and thank you

Hi Theo,
There are several ways to implement this using simple timing features of LabVIEW. Two fairly simple methods are comparing system time stamps or using the Wait VI provided in the Timing palette. The time stamp comparison requires a little bit more programming, but can be included in your main program loop. To use the Wait function, you will probably need to construct a new loop parallel to your main loop. I have attached screenshots of these two implementations. Please let me know if you have any more questions.

How to use JDBC to connect Tomcat with database server?(Urgent!)

I try to deploy the tomcat and make it connect with databaser server.
I am using mysql connector J 3.0. I added the CLASSPATH of mysql-connector-java-3.0.7-stable-bin.jar in the tomcat.sh .
I also add the web application in server.xml.
When I start tomcat, I can see using Classpath including mysql-connector-java-3.0.7-stable-bin.jar .
But when i browse my jsp including the jdbc, wait for a while, I get a message as following: Timeout on server localhost. My web server and database server is same computer.
Could you tell me what's wrong?

Did you check to see that the MySQL database was indeed up and running, and accepting connections when you started Tomcat? Did you make sure that your firewall permits connections to the database?
Timeout errors generally occur when you send a request to a server and the server does nothing with it - i.e., it doesn't respond to it in any way. Most firewalls are configured this way. If I telnet to your machine and I get "connection refused", I know your machine exists and I can try hacking into it. If I telnet and get nothing at all, then I will either assume either there's no actual machine at that address or it's unresponsive.

When is it appropriate to use DataSource (or Connection pooling)?

Hello all,
I'm having some design issues with my application and I'm starting to think that maybe using Connection pooling is not suited for my application. I'm using Tomcat 5.5.12 if it's any relevant..
The architecture of our application looks like this:
Servlets -> App Helper classes -> DB/Accessor classes
looks like the three-tier architecture described in this document: http://www.subrahmanyam.com/articles/servlets/ServletIssues.html
I have read on the Tomcat docs that said that using DataSource is good practice and improves efficiency since it recycles database connections. However, if the accessor/DB classes are not servlets, how can I use the DataSource facility that interacts with Tomcat?
I would like to know whether it is a good idea to use DataSource in my case and if so, how? (since they are not servlets)
Thanks in advance :)

Hi. Thank you for replying.
In the examples that I've seen that use JNDI for Database access, it seems that DataSource is always used--in other words, JNDI and DataSource always seem to be used together (in Servlets). I have not found a case where JNDI is used by itself to access the Database--perhaps I'm not looking in the right place. Could you point me to some documentation maybe?
Thanks a lot!

Where can I find how to use DataSource?

Hi,
I am quite new to JDBC and is writing some small database program. I find many examples use DataSource, I want to know how to use it, but cannot find the API in the docs section of java.com.
Can anyone point me to the location of javax.sql.DataSource, or even better some examples of using DataSource?
Also, I am using Oracle as my database, do I need to register the oracle driver first for DataSource first also?
Any help will be approcaited.

Hi,
You can get the more detailed documentation at
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/javax/sql/DataSource.html and please visit http://www.datadirect-technologies.com/download/docs/jdbc/jdbcref/usejdbc.htm for information on how to connect to database using datasources.
Hope this helps.

Hi, yes, there are at least two known ways:
1. if you happen to have a UCCX premium, you can create an HTTP application that serves up the prompt file,
2. you can try to access the prompt file like this: http://<uccxip>:9080/prompts/dirname/promptfilename.wav

How to use jdbc to connect oracle

I want use jdbc direct to connect oracle database,and I
want to use sun Company or oracle Company driver. how can I get driver and how do I write connection string?
Deeply to wait your reply,thank you!

The correct format would be jdbc:oracle:thin@server:port:sidTry "jdbc:oracle:thin:@192.168.84.20:1521:ORDB","ysys","fareast"and see what happens.
Note that you two formats for the DriverManager.getConnection() method; if DriverManager.getConnection(db_url, username, password) doesn't work, try the other call with a fully-qualified database url:DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:ysys/[email protected]:1521:ORDB")The SID is the server ID that was given to the instance when the database was installed; default is ORCL, but may have been changed. Port default is 1521, but again, this may be different for your system.

How to use the current connection when calling db procedure ?

dear all,
Am using Jdevleoper 11.1.1.3 ,
I have a java class that call a database procedure , now everything is going fine with me but a bit slow bcoz am openning a new connection I think it would be definitely faster if am using the current connection
so how can i re-write my code so i can use the current connection istead of defining a new connection to the DB :
public void DeleteApp (int PAppNo){
String username,password,thinConn;
username = "ACC";
password = "ACC";
thinConn = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@..."
try {
DriverManager.registerDriver(new OracleDriver());
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(thinConn, username, password);
CallableStatement cs = conn.prepareCall(" { call myprocedure(?,?,?) } ");
cs.setInt(1,PAppNo);
Thanks for all,
Lama

Delta,
You shound NOT be doing JDBC calls from your UI project. You should put the code as a service method in your application module, expose the service method to the client, and then call it through the binding layer from your UI http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/web.1111/b31974/bcservices.htm#sm0212
thx John & timo but u always post the same reply at the same time for my questionsTimo and I have been around long enough that we recognize the questions that have been posted 9,461,293,811 times before and know the stock answers, and know where in the documentation the answers are given. As you appear to be new to ADF, I'd strongly recommend reading the Fusion Developer's Guide (skim it once and then read in detail the parts that interest you). As I've said before, so many of the basic (and not-so-basic) concepts are covered in there. Once you've skimmed it in enough detail, then the next time you have a problem, you might not know the answer, but you'll remember, "ah, I think I read something about that before, let me check..."

What protocol do i use to direct connect my DATABASE? instead of TCP/IP

I read there's a protocol (or commmand or something) to directly connect my DATABASE (in a stand alone computer).
how do i do that?
because Since I have no network card installed in my computer and since i have a DHCP ADSL connection (thru usb modem), i cannot connect my DATABASE (ORACLE 9.2) and Developer 6I (both in my computer). WINDOWS XP (SP2).
is there something to fix that?
also when i start my LISTENER as soon as i connect thru sqlplus or make 1 test with TNSPING it crashes. :(
is that because I dont have a fixed IP?
i 've tried using 127.0.0.1 my Internet's IP, my host, LOCALHOST, and nothing fixes it.
HELP

Hi,
Try using IPC. for example something like this:
tnsnames.ora
TESTDB =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = testdb)
Listener.ora would have something like this:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC))
you may also have to change your init.ora if there are references to MTS/SHARED SERVER stuff.
cheers,
john
