MS SQL Server in Java/J2EE Environment

Dear all,
I wanted to understand pros and cons of choosing MS SQL Server in Java/J2EE environment.
Could anybody share some thoughts or web resources?
Personally I hate using MS SQL Server for Java/J2EE based applications. But one of my clients wanted to have following environment for his production environment and he insist on using this environment for application development. So I just wanted to understand pros and cons of J2EE (Application) + MS SQL Server ( rdbms )

How do i connect to sql server using java?

hi ever body
i need to connect to sql server using java
what is the driver i will use?
thanks

Microsoft make a jdbc driver and it is readily available through MSDN. Here is a link http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/data/aa937724.aspx. Whatever jdbc driver you are looking for, Google it, and if it exists you'll find it in 10 seconds.

Connect to MS Sql Server from Java Source

Hi,
Is there any way I could connect to ms sql server from Java source? I know I can call java source from function thats easy but what I really want is capability to connect to non-oracle(MS SQL server) from my java source and then call it from function.
I don't know if JDBC driver for SQL server is even installed/available. Is there a way I could find it out form my IDE? I know sqlJ does compile but I have never used sqlj. help!!!

You'll probably have better luck in a Java forum or a Microsoft forum.

How to access sql server using java script

Hi, Is it possible to connect to sql server in java script. I'm using microsoft jdbc driver for connectivity to sql server.

Hi, Is it possible to connect to sql server in java
script. I'm using microsoft jdbc driver for
connectivity to sql server.If you want to ask about Javascript, you are in the wrong place. Go and find some JavaScript forum. Actually, you could connect to database from javascript using Ajax or the like mainly because you could have Java code behind the scenes, but then that too is not something I would want to discuss here. So, go find the correct place for the topic.

How to convert pl/sql code into java/j2ee

Hi,
We have a PL/SQL Oracle App server application that we will support if we can convert in j2ee/java. But when i did take a look at the code, these pl/sql contains all HTML and java code inside the stored procedures.
And iam looking to explore some tools and mechanisms that can convert these pl/sql in a JAVA application so that i can deploy this new app into my BEA81 environment.
Does any body has any idea:
a) How to convert from pl/sql > java ?
b) Any plugins or tools of BEA that can run these pl/sql (the way thay are currently...i.e w/o converting) in BEA 81 container ?
thanks, sangita

these pl/sql contains all HTML and java code insideJava or JavaScript. They are not the same. I wouldn't expect to see Java inside html, whereas JavaScript would be intermixed. On the other hand you might have a java stored proc (Oracle 9/10) which is generating HTML.
>
Does any body has any idea:Refactor.
I doubt it just has html and JavaScript/Java. So what you have is a mess that mixes several things that should have been seperate in the first place.

How i connect to SQL server using java?

hi every body
i need to connect to a sql server database using java
i do not know sql driver in java
plz help me

This is certainly the wrong forum for that question. Search in the JDBC forum. This has been asked and answered many times.

Accessing MS Sql Server with Java classes - problem connecting to socket

I found an example at this location which uses java classes to connected to MS Sql Server.
http://search400.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid3_gci1065992,00.html
--bummer - it is a login location - so I will include the article
Anyway, the example is using Websphere, but I am still on Jbuilder (will get wsad soon). So I planted the classes from the example in
C:\Borland\JBuilder\jkd1.4\jre\lib\ext\...the classes
Then I copied the code from the example to my jpx project and got an error that it could not connect to the socket. The only thing I changed in the code was the connection string:
--original string from example:
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://1433", "");
I was getting an error with the 2 argument version of DriverManager - and the second argument here was empty (properties argument). Here was my connection string:
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://Myserver:1433;User=sa;Password=");
I am only using the 1 argument version of DriverManager. Note that the password=" is blank because my RnD workstation is standalone - no one accesses the sql server except me - so no password. I also left out the last semicolon I noticed. Any suggestions appreciated how I could fix this.
Thanks

Sample code: Accessing MS SQL Server database from the iSeries
Eitan Rosenberg
09 Mar 2005
Rating: --- (out of 5)
Nowadays with the help of Java the iSeries can be integrated with other databases quite easy. This tip shows you how. The code included here uses the free Microsoft driver that can be downloaded from here. (SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC Service Pack 3)
If your SQL server does not include the Northwind Sample Database you can find it here.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=07287b11-0502-461a-b138-2aa54bfdc03a&displaylang=en
The download contains the following files:
msbase.jar
mssqlserver.jar
msutil.jar
Those files needs to be copied to the iSeries directories (/home/r_eitan/ExternalJARs).
Here's the directory structure (on the iSeries) for this sample:
/home/r_eitan/ExternalJARs - Microsoft files (msbase.jar,mssqlserver.jar,msutil.jar)
/home/r_eitan/JdbcTest02 - My code (Main.java,Main.class)
The Java code
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
class Main {
* Connect to Microsoft SQL server and download file northWind.products as tab
* seperated file. (products.txt)
public static void main(String args[]) {
try {
PrintStream outPut = new PrintStream(new BufferedOutputStream(new FileOutputStream("products.txt")));
Class.forName("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");
//Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://1433", "");
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://Myserver:1433;User=sa;Password=");
System.out.println("Connection Done");
connection.setCatalog("northWind");
String sqlCmdString = "select * from products";
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery(sqlCmdString);
ResultSetMetaData resultSetMetaData = resultSet.getMetaData();
int columnCount = resultSetMetaData.getColumnCount();
// Iterate throught the rows in resultSet and
// output the columns for each row.
while (resultSet.next()) {
for (int index = 1; index <=columnCount; ++index)
String value;
switch(resultSetMetaData.getColumnType(index))
case 2 :
case 3 :
value = resultSet.getString(index);
break;
default :
value = """ + resultSet.getString(index) + """;
break;
outPut.print(value + (index < columnCount ? "t" : ""));
outPut.println();
outPut.close();
resultSet.close();
connection.close();
System.out.println("Done");
catch (SQLException exception)
exception.printStackTrace();
catch (Exception exception)
exception.printStackTrace();

My guess is that the server's host name isn't right. It necessarily (or even usually) the "windows name" of the computer. Try with the numeric IP address instead (type "ipconfig" to see it).
First aid check list for "connection refused":
- Check host name in connect string.
- Check port number in connect string.
- Try numeric IP address of server host in connect string, in case name server is hosed.
- Are there any firewalls between client and server blocking the port.
- Check that the db server is running.
- Check that the db server is listening to the port. On the server, try: "telnet localhost the-port-number". Or "netstat -an", there should be a listening entry for the port.
- Try "telnet serverhost the-port-number" from the client, to see if firewalls are blocking it.
- If "telnet" fails: try it with the numeric ip address.
- If "telnet" fails: does it fail immediately or after an obvious timeout? How long is the timeout?
- Does the server respond to "ping serverhost" or "telnet serverhost" or "ssh serverhost"?

MARS connection to SQL Server in JAVA via ODBC

Hello.
I've got this problem.
I'm managing an application JAVA/JSP, based on a 3-tier architecture.
The connection to the database is performed via JDBC/ODBC, in order to work with different DRMS.
Everything is ok when connecting to Oracle or MySql via JDBC, but when we connect to SQL Server via ODBC we get this error: "ODBC SQL SERVER - Connection is busy with result for another stmt".
That's why the application executes more than one SQL statement, opening a ResultSet object, under the same connection.
This is the way the application is performing, and we can't change it.
I've read that on SQL Server 2005 is available a new connection parameter called MARS (Multiple Active Result Sets), that should resolve this problem.
But I was not able to find any way to invoke this type of connection in JAVA for an ODBC connection! (I've found only tips for .NET...).
Many thanks if somebody can suggest me how to resolve this problem.
It's urgent!

Use JDBC. Get a SQL server JDBC driver. Unfortunately I don't know of any free ones, but one I have used in the past is from http://www.jnetdirect.com/
Maybe you can search in the JDBC forum for the answer - Its a common enough question I know.

Upgrade to SQL server 2005 - Point Production Environment to New Server?

We have Essbase, Workspace, EAS, EIS, FR, WA environment in Production, supporting SQL server databases are on ServerA which has all these databases in SQL server 2000. The corporate standard is moving to SQL server 2005, and the SQL server DBA has copied the supporting dbs to ServerB for testing.
Is "pointing" to ServerB an option, or do the BI+ components have to be redeployed? Any help or pointing in the right direction would be appreciated.

Stephanie,
There could be schema changes between 2000 and 2005 you may want to check the support matrix to ensure your version of Hyperion is supported with SQL 2005.
Best bet is to back up the business rules, fr reports and then configure the system to the new databases on the SQL 2005 box then reimport the items.

I'm having the same problem.
One potential solutions is to use a custom SQL server JDBC driver instead of going through the ODBC bridge. This will minimize dependencies and should also improved performance. Hope this helps.

How to invoke a stored procedure on MS Sql Server with Java?

I started writing Enterprise Java Beans and created an ODBC dsn with MS Sql Server 2000 which I can access using jdbc:odbc:mySqlDSN. This all works fine using Java Sql Statements. What kind of Java/Java Sql statement can I use to invoke a stored procedure on the Sql Server? Is it possible to use ADO/ADO command objects with Java? Is it possible to import/implement Mdac2.6 ActiveX data objects libary in Java?
Thanks

Thanks all for your replies. I will search the api for callable statements. I am curious though, the reply that suggests using a prepared statement - can I put the name of a stored procedure in a prepared statment or is this just suggestions an action query like Insert Into, Update, Delete? Like with ADO you can say
cmdObject.CommandType = adStoredProcedure
cmdObject.CommandText = "NameOfStoredProc"
cmdObject.ExecuteNonQuery()
Once I am calling/importing/implementing the proper libraries/interfaces in Java, can a prepared statement reference a stored procedure as above?
Thanks

Error:access SQL Server thru java prg without specifying classpath at runti

Hi!
The prg is trying to connect to a remote Sql server Db . The prog is complied by specifying the path of sql drivers. When it is run
1)java -classpath pathofsqldivers classnm param1 param2
its working fine
2)java classnm param1 param2
its giving the error:

when i am using this class in servlet its giving the same error, there i cannot specify the runtime -classpath option as i m instanttaiting an object of the above mentioned class.
plse help me out

In case you are having a webapplication ...put your driver jar and class in which you connect to the db in WEB-INF/lib of your application
or else set the jar file in the CLASSPATH variable
hope this helps:)

SQL Server and Java problem

Hi,
I am having a problem using Java and JDBC talking to a SQL Server database. On a new record or on an existing record the record will not update if someone types into a text field. If they don't type into that field it will insert the record just fine. The field is defined Text with a size of 16 in the database. In Java the variable is defined string. The error is Runtime Error 129, Record Not Updated. Is there a list of the explanations of the error messages and why they might be caused somewhere? Do you think the size of the field is what the problem is? Or is it the field type? Thanks for any help.

I would try varchar(16). It may be the database is tryin to enforce that all strings be 16 characters and refusing to update if they're not.

Database in Suspect Mode in SQL Server 2000 Log Shipping Environment

Hi All
We have movement of SQL Server 2000 at physical level. We have disable jobs and stop Agent and SQL Server services.
After moved the server we have started the server and then start SQL Server 2000 services.

What shall I do e.g. why databases come up in SUSPECT mode? what to check and how to get database live?
Pls help it is critical...
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
Did you made sure no transactions like restore logs were running when you stopped SQL server service or agent .I have seen in SQL 2000 an abrupt stop of SQL Server agent when its doing a process can sometimes force database in suspect mode.
I would like you to get your disk analyzed by vendor ASAP for any fault in disk at first go it seems to me an underlying hardware issue.
Please can you check errorlog and event viewer to find out any possible cause for database going into suspect mode
I always suggest to use Backup and restore method of recovery to get out from suspect database problem.If you dont have then you can move with DBCC Checkdb and various repair options but be sure
DATA LOSS might be possible when you use repair allow data loss and repair_rebuild removes constraints.
hope this helps
