The main two requirements for data source configuration are: (1) the driver must be JDBC type; (2) the data source must connect to the database used by the application. The settings discussed in this section focus on meeting these two requirements. Configure the other data source parameters that are not mentioned here based on your own knowledge about data source configuration or simply use the default settings.
Unless specified, the settings given in this chapter apply to the following application servers that Appeon supports: WebLogic, WebSphere, JBoss, JEUS, NetWeaver, and EAServer.
Note that the values of driver class name and Database URL are case sensitive.
SAP ASA/SQL Anywhere databases support jConnect (recommended), iAnywhere JDBC-ODBC, and Sun JDBC-ODBC bridge. jConnect is preferable than iAnywhere JDBC-ODBC and Sun JDBC-ODBC bridge because it delivers much better performance at runtime. However, the Appeon Demo uses the Sun JDBC-ODBC bridge because this driver can be automatically configured by the Appeon installation program.
Note:
1) WebSphere server and JEUS server do not support JDBC-ODBC bridge driver, and supports only jConnect driver.
2) To use jConnect to connect with ASA/SQL Anywhere, you must start ASA/SQL Anywhere as service before configuration.
3) jConnect 6.0 is preferable to jConnect 5.5.
