Answer 1

Hello Sreedhar,
While we working in JDBC or JMS Adapters we should deploy the Drivers..
Go through this links,

To install JDBC driver follow the how to guide.

Configuration of JDBC Adapter for SQL Server
JDBC Driver = com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
Connection = jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://hostname:<port>;DatabaseName=<DBName>
UserID and Password.
If the connection is not working find the correct port number.

Please check the driver path as mentioned below.
JDBC Driver : sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
Connection:jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=//location of DB table.mdb;
No JDBC driver required.

Re: Problem when connecting to MS Access through JDBC Adapter.
SAP Note 850116 has details
2)  While we working in IDOC  Adapters we should do  ALE Config of IDOC Settings .
Do these configurations in R/3 and in XI...
SAP XI
1) RFC Destination (SM59)
a) Choose create.
b) Specify the name of the RFC destination
c) Select connection type as 3 and save
d) In the technical settings tab enter the details SAP SID/URL and system number#.
e) Enter the Gateway host as same details above SID/URL.
f) Gateway service is 3300+system number#.
g) In the Logon /Security tab, enter the client user & Password details of Destination system.
h) Test the connection and remote logon.
2) Create Port (IDX1)
a) Select create new button
b) Enter the port name as SAP+SID (The starting char should be SAP)
c) Enter the destination client.
d) Enter the RFC Destination created in SAP R/3 towards other system.
e) Save
3) Load Meta Data for IDOC (IDX2)
a) Create new
b) IDOC Message Type
c) Enter port created in IDX1.
SAP R/3
1) RFC Destination (SM59)
a) Choose create.
b) Specify the name of the RFC destination
c) Select connection type as 3 and save
d) In the technical settings tab enter the details SAP SID/URL and system number#.
e) Enter the Gateway host as same details above SID/URL.
f) Gateway service is 3300+system number#.
g) In the Logon /Security tab, enter the client user & Password details of Destination system.
h) Test the connection and remote logon.
2) Create Port (We21)
a) First Select Transactional RFC and then click create button
b) Enter the destination port name as SAP+SID (The starting char should be SAP)
c) Enter the destination client.
d) Enter the RFC Destination created in SAP R/3 towards other system.
e) Save
3) Create Partner Profile (WE20)
a) Create New
b) Create the Partner no. name as same the logical system name of the destination system.
c) Select Partner type LS
d) Enter details for Type: US/USER, Agent, and Lang.
e) Click on the + button to select the message type.
f) Select Partner no. and LS which ever create above.
g) Select Message type
h) Select Process code related to the Message type.
I) save.
Here in IDOC to JDBC interface we need not to config sender Adapter..
1) The main usage of a sender adapter is to convert the input format into the XI supported XML format.
Once the conversion is completed the sender agreement appends the header with the sender details.
In case of these adapters we wont require sender agreement and sender communicationchannel for the
following reasons.
Sender agreement is associated with a namespace when we shoot an idoc frm r/3 if already contains its standard sap namespace. so those is need of sender agreement
The sender communication channel use is to identify the sending system and adapter, as the idoc header contains the details there is no need to sender.
These adapters resides on ABAP stack here the integration server takes care of IDOC/HTTP to XML conversion without requirement of adapter.
The business system that is sending the adapter has already been assigned to a techinical system which normally acts as an integration server...
