Trying to connect to an Access database

Post Author: robert693
CA Forum: Deployment
Hello,
I am trying to use Crystal to create reports out of an Access database. When I try to connect to the database thru the database expert, I go to Create Connection and choose Databse Files. I choose a database that is in My Documents. I get an error that says "Failed to load database information," and then "Unknown Query Engine Error." I was wondering what I have to do to connect to the Access database.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I connect to Access by first creating an ODBC connection to it and then have crystal use the ODBC.

Trying to connect GUI to access database

i need alittle help i have this GUI that i created and i am trying to hook it up to a database in MS ACCESS and i am have so many problems trying to get my second table called billings to pull and show up in my GUI please take a look at my code and tell me what is wrong with it.
now on my GUI its supposed to allow you to choose a company in the list box and after choosing a company, this allows you to get all the company's information like address and state and zip code and another list box is populated called consultants and you can choose a consultant and gethis or her billing information , like their hours billed from that company and their total hours billed
please look at my code and tell me what is wrong, especially with the part about pulling information from the database.

If you look at this web page at some of the other options, they may give you a clue on how to setup the Netgear.
Wireless connection problems
The main thing is to ensure that you give the two access points, fixed IP addresses outside of the DHCP range of the home hub.
Try 192.168.1.15 and 192.168.1.16
The Netgears probably are on the wrong IP subnet at the moment, so they will not work.

Getting Error when trying to connect to the Primavera database. PPM V7 SP3

Hi Guys,
Caused by: org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name 'mailService' defined in class path resource [com/primavera/bre//com/primavera/bre/integration/intgconf.xml]: Invalid destruction signature; nested exception is org.springframework.beans.factory.support.BeanDefinitionValidationException: Couldn't find a destroy method named 'destroy' on bean with name 'mailService'
I have looked into the intgserver.jar under P6IntegrationAPI/lib and looked the com.primavera.infr.srvcs.MailServiceImpl.java and can see that there is no destroy method whereas it is defined in the com.primavera.bre.intergration.intgconf.xml as below

<bean id="mailService" class="com.primavera.infr.srvcs.MailServiceImpl" init-method="init" scope="singleton" destroy-method="destroy"*+>
<property name="adminManager"><ref bean="adminManager"/></property>
<property name="threadPool"><ref bean="threadPool"/></property>
<property name="settingsManager"><ref bean="settingsManager"/></property>
</bean>
I get the above error when trying to connect to the Primavera database. I use PPMV7 SP3 and I have installed the Integration API from EPPMV7 bundle.
My demo's are working fine.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Kajal.

Hi Marc,

And with the same settings I am not getting any error to connect to essbase cube.
Any suggestions?

Using JSP to connect to an Access Database

I need help on using JSP to connect to an Access database.
This is the code I currently have connecting to a mySQL DB. I need to change it to connect to an Access DB. The reason I am switching DB's is because mySQL is no longer going to be carried by my host.
Here is the code:
<html>

// define database parameters
String host="localhost";
String user="us867";
String pass="jsf84d";
String db="db876";
String conn;
%>
<table border="2" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="5">
<tr>
<td>Owner</td>
<td>First name</td>
<td>Last name</td>
</tr>
<%
Class.forName("org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver");
// create connection string
conn = "jdbc:mysql://" + host + "/" + db + "?user=" + user + "&password=" +
pass;
// pass database parameters to JDBC driver
Connection Conn = DriverManager.getConnection(conn);
// query statement
Statement SQLStatement = Conn.createStatement();
// generate query
String Query = "SELECT uid, fname, lname FROM abook";
// get result
ResultSet SQLResult = SQLStatement.executeQuery(Query);
 while(SQLResult.next())
 UId = SQLResult.getString("uid");
 FName = SQLResult.getString("fname");
 LName = SQLResult.getString("lname");
 out.println("<tr><td>" + UId + "</td><td>" + FName + "</td><td>" + LName
+ "</td></tr>");
// close connection
SQLResult.close();
SQLStatement.close();
Conn.close();
%>

Connect to remote Access database

Hi there,
Can any one tell me how to connect to the remote MS Access? The scnario is:
Suppose there is a web server with IP 215.167.16.89. The JDBC driver (assumed to be JDataConnect) is installed on this machine. How to use this web server to connect to the Access database called db1.mdb with DSN 'db1' held in the maching with IP 165.247.17.43?
The Jave connection codes I am using are:
String url=new String ("jdbc:JDataConnect://165.247.17.43/db1:username:password");
try{
drvDriver=(Driver)Class.forName("JData2_0.sql.$Driver").newInstance();
conConnection = drvDriver.connect(url, new Properties());
showMessage("Connected to Company2 Database");
Why can I not connect to the db1 database?
If I use these codes to connect to the database in the same machine as the web server without specifying the IP address, it worked.
String url=new String ("jdbc:JDataConnect:db1:username:password");
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help.
So you need to give a full path of it as if you are accesing
through windows explorer.I am not sure how to give a full path. Can you give me the detail please?
What happens when you have two or more .mdb with the
same name in different directories in that ip address.
Since its a file... you need to access it as a file.I think we can specify the different DSN for the two or more .mdb databases.
Thanks.

Hi Klaus,
DG40DBC is installed in windows XP 32bit, tje DG4ODBC its installed in the oracle 11g EE r2, automatic right?
The ODBC driver i had installed was mysql-connector-odbc-5.2.2-win32.exe

Breaking the Sharepoint connection within an Access database

We have recently changed our online database to a new system. We downloaded all the current information into excel or access. However my major database to track all staff training, mandatory renewables and policy reviews will not allow attachments to be
uploaded to the access database because "the sharepoint table is no longer available". We have had many problems with sharepoint, and wish to convert the database strictly to access and break the sharepoint connection to the former website. Is there
a way to do this?
Please advise

The Mystery of Connecting to an Access Database

I am just starting to use designer and with some stumbles along the way have perfected the layout of the form I am trying to create. The next step is connecting it to a Microsoft Access database. However, I am having some problems.
I have looked everywhere imaginable for a "how-to" on connecting an Access database to my form in Designer. I have gone through setting up data connections several times, all with the same result: "Connection for Source NPIF failed because the environment is not trusted". NPIF is the name of the data connection I've been trying to set up.
I realize this is probably a very boring problem to solve, but I am desperate! I have not seen any answers to other posts asking this same question, so I'm worried this one will be overlooked too. Please, there are many of us out there who cannot figure this out! Help us?
Other people seem to have set this up with no problems. Maybe one of you can post the steps you took to get it to work - share the love!!
Thank you, Elizabeth

Chris, here's my script. It's in the initialize event. ----- ProjectInformationForm.Page1ClientBillingProject.Client.DataDropDownList::initialize - (JavaScript, client) /* This dropdown list object will populate two columns with data from a data connection. sDataConnectionName - name of the data connection to get the data from. Note the data connection will appear in the Data View. sColHiddenValue - this is the hidden value column of the dropdown. Specify the table column name used for populating. sColDisplayText - this is the display text column of the dropdown. Specify the table column name used for populating. These variables must be assigned for this script to run correctly. Replace <value> with the correct value. */ var sDataConnectionName = "NPIF"; // example - var sDataConnectionName = "MyDataConnection"; var sColHiddenValue = "ClientName"; // example - var sColHiddenValue = "MyIndexValue"; var sColDisplayText = "ClientName"; // example - var sColDisplayText = "MyDescription" // Search for sourceSet node which matchs the DataConnection name var nIndex = 0; while(xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(nIndex).name != sDataConnectionName) { nIndex++; } var oDB = xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(nIndex); oDB.open(); oDB.first(); // Search node with the class name "command" var nDBIndex = 0; while(oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).className != "command") { nDBIndex++; } // Backup the original settings before assigning BOF and EOF to stay var sBOFBackup = oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.getAttribute("bofAction"); var sEOFBackup = oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.getAttribute("eofAction"); oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute("stayBOF", "bofAction"); oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute("stayEOF", "eofAction"); // Clear the list this.clearItems(); // Search for the record node with the matching Data Connection name nIndex = 0; while(xfa.record.nodes.item(nIndex).name != sDataConnectionName) { nIndex++; } var oRecord = xfa.record.nodes.item(nIndex); // Find the value node var oValueNode = null; var oTextNode = null; for(var nColIndex = 0; nColIndex < oRecord.nodes.length; nColIndex++) { if(oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex).name == sColHiddenValue) { oValueNode = oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex); } else if(oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex).name == sColDisplayText) { oTextNode = oRecord.nodes.item(nColIndex); } } while(!oDB.isEOF()) { this.addItem(oTextNode.value, oValueNode.value); oDB.next(); } // Restore the original settings oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute(sBOFBackup, "bofAction"); oDB.nodes.item(nDBIndex).query.recordSet.setAttribute(sEOFBackup, "eofAction"); // Close connection oDB.close();

DW Procedures to connect to MS ACCESS database located on remote server

I am confused about the procedures within Dreamweaver CS3 to connect to a MS ACCESS database on a remoter server.
I am working through a tutorial book, "Dreamweaver 8 with ASP, Cold Fusion and PHP Training from the Source", but the instructions are unclear concerning the procedures to connect to a MS ACCESS database located on a remote server.
The book indicates that the server administration has to create the DSN for you and screen shots indicate that you will result in a list of DSNs to choose from when creating the connections .asp file.
I went through the procedures to create a connections .asp and resulting in a connection without and tables (of course) because I do not initially have any connection information from my remote site.
I have generated the required two lines of code as follows for my MS ACCESS database connection on my remote server:
'Database connection info and provider
strCon="Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source="&_
Server.MapPath("database\trans.mdb") & ";" &_
"User ID=xxx;Password=xxxxx"
The question that I have is:
How does this connection coding relate to the "connections/conn_newland.asp" file that was create within the Dreamweaver screens? How do I merge the ASP coding? The file (/connections/conn_newland.asp) generated within Dreamweaver is as follows:
<%
'FileName="Connection_odbc_conn_dsn.htm"
'Type="ADO"
'DesignationType="ADO"
'HTTP="true"
'Catelog=" "
'Schema
Dim MM_conn_newland_STRING
MM_conn_newland_STRINT = "dsn=newland;"
%>
Any advice would be appreciated. I know that this is simple but debugging an error from an ASP coding merge would be a "bear" to debug!

I have not used MS Access myself (fortunately) but I believe it works much like the old, old way of achieving a multi-user database in FileMaker.
That is, it is not a true client-server database but more a peer-to-peer database and that each peer opens the same database file which is available to multiple user via file sharing. Therefore as elikness said it should just be a matter of putting the files on your Lion Server and then sharing that folder/volume using SMB sharing.
However one thing to be aware of, since MS Access is not a true client-server database I would imagine it uses record locking to manage simultaneous direct access to records in the same files. File or Record locking is something that has historically been a bit flakey when using Windows clients with a Mac file server (and probably vice versa).
While I am not proposing it as a solution to consider seriously, it is worth you knowing that FileMaker Pro is a database system that is available for both Mac and Windows and depending on how you configure things can be considered to stretch from a configuration very similar to MS Access at the low end all the way to a high-end MS SQL Server style setup at the top end. See http://www.filemaker.com for details.
There is also a a third-party tool available for migrating databases to or from FileMaker Pro and it can convert MS Access databases to FileMaker Pro see http://www.fmpromigrator.com/
You could use FileMaker Pro just on Windows machines if you wish.

How to connect to ms access database in jdbc

i want to connect to my ms access database located in my c:\tapi\dbexperts.mdb. please help me construct the connection string. thanks in advance for your help.

               String database = "c:\\tapi\\dbexperts.mdb"; /* change it*/
               String url = "jdbc:odbc:Driver={Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb)};DBQ=" + database + ";DriverID=22;READONLY=false";
               Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
               con = DriverManager.getConnection(url);

Exception connecting to MS Access Database.

I'm having problems using the jdbc-odbc bridge with an MS Access database and a file DSN. If I use a system DSN, it works fine but it does not seem to find the file DSN for some reason (And I HAVE to use a file DSN in this instance, for reasons I won't bore you with) - this is the error-message:
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified"
This is my example code:
import java.sql.*;
public class SamplePgm {
private static Connection con;
private static Statement stmt;
private static ResultSet result;
public static void main(String[] args) {
try {
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Testing", "", "");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
result = stmt.executeQuery("select TOP 3 emp_no from employee");
while (result.next()) {
System.out.println(result.getString("emp_no"));
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} finally {
try {
result.close();
stmt.close();
con.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
The file DSN was set up using the Win2K ODBC administrator.
Is there any other way to tell ODBC that it's using a file DSN ?
I'd be very grateful for any/all assistance.
Thanks.

My guess would be that a file DSN is stored in a file, a system DSN is stored under the HKeyLocalMachine registry key and a user DSN is stored under the HKeyCurrentUser registry key, but it's only a guess.

How to connect with Microsoft Access Database with JAVA

I want to know the command and query to connect between MSAccess and JDBC.
Is it beter way to make connection with MSAccess comparing with other Databases such as SQL and Oracle.
Which Database will be the best with Java?
I also want to know to be platform indepadent which database is suitable?

On Windows, you can use MS Access database by:
Set up a System Data Source using the ODBC control panel applet.
Use the jdbc:odbc bridge JDBC driver, and specify a jdbc url that points to the data source name you just specified.
It's been too long since I've done this, so I don't remember the syntax of the jdbc url, but I'm sure that if you do a search for the jdbc:odbc bridge that you will find what you are looking for.
As far as the question about which database is best, you will need to determine that based on your project requirements.
If you want a quick and dirty, open source, cross-platform database, take a look at HyperSonic SQL.

CONNECT BI7 TO ACCESS DATABASE

<Moderator Message: Don't use upper case letters; Don't request documentation or links; Search the forums; follow the rules>
Hello,
Is it possible to connect Microsoft Access database to BW.
Should i use DB connect or UD connect.
If someone could provide simple documentation
thanks for you help,

Hi there!
I think data binding is being added to netbeans 6 next year, otherwise you will have to use JDBC to access the database and call setText for the field with the data you get out of the db (manual coding). Google for the jdbc odbc bridge for accessing Access DB.
For data binding you can use Swing X http://www.swinglabs.org/projects.jsp, as long as you don't mind writing code by hand.
In the mean time, if you really want to do the binding using drag and drop you can use the Visual Web pack for netbeans 5.5 and create a web based app with data binding. If you wait a week or two the final version (preview can be downloaded at the moment) of the web pack should be released.
Sorry about the tone of the other guy's comment, it seems that Java programmers are traditionally hostile towards VB guys and how they view the world ;)

Cannot connect to an Access database from DreamWeaver

Hello.
I'm creating my first web page with a DB connection.
I have a minimal DB with a simple table.
This is a DB as Access create it by default, with no password
and no
security constraints.
In DreamWeaver, I have created a default DB connection string
for Access
2000.
I have removed, from this connection string, the UserID and
the Password as
there is no password for my DB.
I have put the right path for this DB.
But it doesn't work!
I receive the message: (sorry for my bad english) cannot open
the DB, it is
already open by another user (it is not the case: the DB is
closed) or you
must have autorisation to visualised the data.
Do you have an idea ?

I'm not an expert in file permissions so I have simply moved
my DB on the
HDD of my PC, before it was on another server.
So, now, I think I have no file permission problem anymore.
I can connect the DB from DreamWeaver but I cannot see the
tables !
If I open the Tables node of the db tree in the Database
window of
DreamWeaver, I receive the message:
"Error calling GetTables".
Do you have an idea or an advice ?
Thanks in advance,
Alain.
