How to use non-MySQL database with DW and PHP...???

I need to connect to a data-source that is not MySQL from
with my PHP scripts. The only option I get under the Databases tab
in the Application panel is MySQL Connection. What about just
standard ODBC connections? Will DW not handle those for me? Do I
have to do all of that by hand??
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

There once existed an opensource servermodel called phakt
that used the
ADODB database abstraction library,
the company that created and supported it was bought by Adobe
and
subsequently the project was cancelled.
A group of people (including me) started a community
initiative@
http://openphakt.sourceforge.net
to continue distribution and development of
phakt, but unfortunately I don't have access to Dreamweaver
CS3 due to lack
of funding.
Phakt will almost certainly NOT run on CS3 in it's current
state, but is
should support previous versions.

How to use your own database with your users to authenticate in a Web app?

Hello, everybody!
I'm starting to write my first web application and I'm going to use JSF, JPA and EJB3 in this application. One of the first things that I have to do on it is the authentication part where I'll have a page with a user name and a password for the user to login. So, as I'm new to all this in Java (I've already implemented this on .NET in the past), I was studying the Java EE 5 Tutorial, especifically the section "Example: Using Form-Based Authentication with a JSP Page". But I saw that the users that the sample application uses come from the file realm on the Application Server. The users are created there and assigned a name, a password and a group. After the users are in the Application Server we can simply uses forms authentication declaratively in the deployment descriptor (web.xml).
But the problem is that this doesn't work to me as I already have my own database with my users, so I want to use it instead of having to create the users on the Application Server.
So, I'm asking you how to do that. Of course I'm not expecting that you place the code here to me as I know that such a thing could be complicated. Instead, I'm asking if you know about some tutorial, article, book or something that teaches how to do what I want. But I would like to see theses examples using JSF and/or EJB3 because these are the technologies that I'm using to develop. It's a pity that the Java EE 5 Tutorial doesn't have an example using a custom database as I know that this situation is very common in the majority of web sites.
Thank you very much.
Marcos

From memory, it goes like this... You just create a
raw jdbc connection on your user database using a
special "login" DB user account, which has
permissions only to an "authenticate" stored query,
which accepts two arguments: username & password, and
returns a boolean 0 or 1 rows found.When I implemented this in .NET's ASP.NET I had the same solution. I had an special user created in the database that I used to log in. When the real user entered his username and password I was already logged in and I had just to check his username and password agains the right table in my database.
But that was only possible bacause when I connected to the database using my hidden user, I used the rights APIs in ASP.NET that coordinate the authentication process. This means that before login in, no one could access any resources (pages, atc...). So what I'm saying is that I can't manager this manually in Java. Java has to have some API or whatever to allow me to control the login process programmatically, while letting the Application Server control the access to the resources.

How to use the JE database with other data types than byte arrays?

Hi! I searched the javadoc of Berkley DB JE, for a way to introduce entry (but I need also retrieve) data with other type than byte arrays, e.g. String, or anything else, as int may be, etc.
Still, I didn't find any such way, because the main (only?!) method to entry data into an open database - according what I found in javadoc - is:
"public OperationStatus put(Transaction txn, DatabaseEntry key, DatabaseEntry data) throws DatabaseException"
and both this and the corresponding method for retrieves, are based on the same DatabaseEntry type, which allow only entry data on byte[] support.
What if I need to use Strings or int, or even char? I must do a special conversion from these types, to byte[], to use the database?
Thank you!

On the doc page (this is also in the download package),
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17277_02/html/index.html
see:
Getting Started Guide
Java Collections Tutorial
Direct Persistence Layer (DPL)
All of these describe how to use data types other than byte arrays.

Using databases with Flash and PHP

Hi, everyone!
I`m a PHP newbie. I just learned PHP so that I can use
databases with Flash.
I`ve got a .php script that contains html that loads up my
.swf file. The .swf file is the core of my site. What I want to
know is if I can call some PHP functions (that I have wrote in the
.php script) from within the .swf file... This functions would
perform the reading and updating of my database.
The only way I know of to modify a database from Flash is
using the POST and GET methods. But that opens up a new browser
window in which the PHP script is called. And that only handles
writing in the database. So, what if I just want to read from the
database some values and insert them into a TextField in Flash? How
do I do that?
Thanks! Ardy

1. Goggle "Flash and mySQL" and you'll get a listing of alot
tutorials
2. I'm also just learning. Here's a great URL to start:

"How to use an Appplicom card with Labview and a Seimens PLC"

Hi, I am using an applicom card type PCI1500-PFB to communicate with a Seimens S7-300 CPU315-2DP plc. I am using this simply to display in a labview front panel the outputs of the plc and may in the future use switches on the front panel to control the inputs of the plc. How do I do the communication? I have setup the applicam card and have comms with the plc I think. I am trying to use data socket to communicate to the plc via the applicom card. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Tom

There�s a fair bit of documentation on NI�s site regarding the Applicom card.
The following doc does a pretty good job summarizing Applicom's PCCONF and PCINIT, and the use of ReadWait and WriteWait to ensure you�ve got communication with the between the PLC and the Applicom card:
http://zone.ni.com/devzone/conceptd.nsf/2d17d611efb58b22862567a9006ffe76/5913e03f551de3f786256a32005b4586?OpenDocument
Since it doesn�t sound like you�re using the LV DSC module, you can stop reading once it gets into connecting to Lookout Objects.
Once you�re sure you�ve got comm, you can do some quick tests in LabVIEW using front panel datasocket connections as shown on page 11-12 of the following:
http://www.ni.com/pdf/manuals/323241a.pdf
From there, it all depends on
the complexity of your system. If simple, you could just stay with front panel connections, or you could move to programming with the Datasocket Read and Write functions.
... and if you get to the point that Datasocket is too slow and cumbersome, you might want to look at the LV DSC module:

How to use SQL String functions with JPA and SAP NW

Hi Everyone,
I'm recently got the following problem:
I have a Web Service project using JPA. But as i found out SAPs JPA implementation or more precisely openSQL restricts the use of the LOWER() function, which converts a String to lower case.
Now I am looking for some sort of workaround. I want to execute the following JPQL query:
SELECT bp FROM BusinessPartner bp WHERE LOWER(bp.companyName) LIKE LOWER(:companyName)
I assume there is somewhere a flag to disable this restrictions, because there might be cases, like mine, where this standard functions are needed.
Kind Regards,
Carl

Hi Vladimir,
no it's not the same issue, because I am asking for a solution for this problem. There have to be ways to bypass this. Otherwise you can't use JPA properly. This is too much of a restriction!
Is there no possibility to change to another implementation than openSQL?
Regards,
Carl

Try to use Mysql database with forte

Dear All:
As title said, I try to use Mysql database with forte.
I read the manual , it said I have to put the database jdbc driver in
the Forte for Java lib/ext directory.
I did it and then add a new Driver in the Runtime tab in the Explorer
window .
But when I try to test this new driver(by Right-clicking on the driver
or connection in the Explorer and select Test Driver from the context
menu),it said "cannot find driver class: check your CLASSPATH or
\lib\ext direectory".
I am sure I'hve put the driver class(with the whole directory structure)
in that folder.
Does anyone what I may go wrong ?
Could you please give me some advices that I can fix this problem ?
Thanks in advance.
Ken @ Taipei , Taiwan , Asia

You should have put the jar file that contains the driver into that directory. If you unpacked the jar file and put the individual classes into that directory, it will not work.

How to use the default database service name on creating procedure for data

how to use the default database service name on creating procedure for datagaurd client failover ??? all oracle doc says create a new service as below and enable at DB startup. but our client is using/wanted database default service to connect from application on the datagaurd environment (rac to non rac setup).please help.
Db name is = prod.
exec DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE (service_name => 'prod',network_name =>'prod',failover_method => 'BASIC',failover_type => 'SELECT',failover_retries => 180,failover_delay => 1);
says already the service available.
CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER manage_dgservice after startup on database DECLARE role
VARCHAR(30);BEGIN SELECT DATABASE_ROLE INTO role FROM V$DATABASE;
IF role = 'NO' THEN DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('prod');
END IF;
END;
says trigger created, but during a swithover still the service is listeneing on listener.
tns entry.
prod =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(LOAD_BALANCE = YES)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = prod1)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = prod2)(PORT = 1521)) ---> primary db entry
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = proddr)(PORT = 1521)) --> DR DB entry
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = prod)
thanks in advance.
Edited by: 854393 on Dec 29, 2012 11:52 AM

Hello;
So in the example below replace "ernie" with the alias you want the client to use.
I can show you how I do it :
First an entry need to be added to the client tnsnames.ora that uses a SERVICE_NAME instead of a SID.
ernie =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Primary.host)(PORT = 1521))
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = Standby.host)(PORT = 1521))
       (CONNECT_DATA =
       (SERVICE_NAME = ernie)
)Next the service 'ernie' needs to be created manually on the primary database.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.CREATE_SERVICE('ernie','ernie');
END;
/After creating the service needs to be manually started.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('ernie');
END;
/Several of the default parameters can now be set for 'ernie'.
BEGIN
   DBMS_SERVICE.MODIFY_SERVICE
   ('ernie',
   FAILOVER_METHOD => 'BASIC',
   FAILOVER_TYPE => 'SELECT',
   FAILOVER_RETRIES => 200,
   FAILOVER_DELAY => 1);
END;
/Finally a database STARTUP trigger should be created to ensures that this service is only offered if the database is primary.
CREATE TRIGGER CHECK_ERNIE_START AFTER STARTUP ON DATABASE
DECLARE
V_ROLE VARCHAR(30);
BEGIN
SELECT DATABASE_ROLE INTO V_ROLE FROM V$DATABASE;
IF V_ROLE = 'PRIMARY' THEN
DBMS_SERVICE.START_SERVICE('ernie');
ELSE
DBMS_SERVICE.STOP_SERVICE('ernie');
END IF;
END;
/lsnrctl status - should show the new service.
When I do this the Database will still register with the listener. I don't give that to the clients. That one will still be available but nobody knows about it. Meanwhile "ernie" moves with the database role.
So in my example the default just hangs out in the background.
Best Regards
mseberg

Anybody using 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2?

Hi,
We have poor performance problems with 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2.
It looks like the issue could be because of RAC Ccluster.
Anybody using 11g RAC Database with OIM 9.1.0.2?
If so, What is the JDBC Driver r u using? Also what App Server (Weblogic or OAS etc) ?
Appreciate your input.
Regards
Vijay Chinnasamy

We are using weblogic 10.3. And I am sorry to tell you that we are yet to move to production.
We are planning to have Database in RAC, so i just thought of taking inputs from you.
can you tell me under what operations you face the poor performance issue?
For us the max no. of users in production is around 6k. So I am wondering how this RAC availability will affect the performance.
Thanks for sharing your inputs.

Is it possible to insert data into a MySQL database with Java?

Hello everyone!
I would like to know, if it's possible to insert data into a MySQL database, with a JFrame inside a servlet?
When the JFrame is first created it calls this method:
     * Connects the servlet with the MySQL database.
    private void connect(){
        try{
            Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
            connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
                    "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/data", "root", "omfg123");
        }catch(ClassNotFoundException cnfe){
            cnfe.printStackTrace();
        }catch(SQLException sqle){
            sqle.printStackTrace();
    }Then, when you click the "Add" button, it executes this code:
            add.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
                @Override
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
                    String employee = employeeName.getText();
                    String[] args = employee.split(" ");
                    firstName = args[0];
                    lastName = args[1];
                    execute();
            });And this is my "execute()" method:
     * Connects the servlet with the MySQL database.
     * - And executes the SQL queries.
    private void execute(){
        try{
            PreparedStatement statement = connection.prepareStatement("insert" +
                    " into employees values(" + firstName + ", " + lastName
                    + ")");
            ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery();
            String fullName = firstName + " " + lastName;
            printer.write("Employee " + fullName + " added.</br>");
        }catch(SQLException sqle){
            sqle.printStackTrace();
    }But when I click the "Add" button, nothing happens.

[HTML DB] How to use the existing database table?

[HTML DB] How to use the existing database table?
I installed Oracle 10g database in Computer A(Windows 2000), and I already create all the tables with data and the data size is about 300MB.
In Computer B(Windows 2000), I installed HTML DB 1.6.
How can I use /get the existing database table (in computer A) for HTML DB?
Could anyone help me on this? I am newbie and I need some detail instructions. or Where can I find the examples.....
Thanks

Well I guess if you wish to retain that architecture, i.e. HTMLDB on one machine and your data on another, you will have to establish database links to access the data. Oracle documentation will describe how to achieve that.
