    multiple datasource

    sandrocchio_0.1

      Hi there,
      I'm new with Jboss and I'm trying to understand how to configure multiple datasource based on different databases. I've already gone trough the jboss.com docs, but onestly it didn't help me much.
      I'm now working with JBoss 4.0.5 and MySQL 5 (but I'd like implement Oracle too).

      Following http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=SetUpAMysqlDatasource I've been able to run my entity bean, however I had to replace the DefaultDS hsqldb with MySQL and this is not exactly what I wanted to achieve.
      So, I'm probably missing something. Would you have a look on what I did and tell me if I need further configurations?

      * add the mysql driver
      * replaced the hsqldb-ds.xml with the new edited mysql-ds.xml

      <datasources>
       <local-tx-datasource>
       <jndi-name>DefaultDS</jndi-name>
       <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.2:3306/tmp</connection-url>
       <driver-class>org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver</driver-class>
       <user-name>user</user-name>
       <password>temp</password>
       <exception-sorter-class-name>org.jboss.resource.adapter.jdbc.vendor.MySQLExceptionSorter</exception-sorter-class-name>
       <metadata>
       <type-mapping>mySQL</type-mapping>
       </metadata>
       </local-tx-datasource>
       </datasources>


      * replaced the ../jms/hsqldb-jdbc2-service.xml with ../jms/mysql-jdbc2-service.xml
      <server>
       <mbean code="org.jboss.mq.server.jmx.DestinationManager" name="jboss.mq:service=DestinationManager">
       <depends optional-attribute-name="MessageCache">jboss.mq:service=MessageCache</depends>
       <depends optional-attribute-name="PersistenceManager">jboss.mq:service=PersistenceManager</depends>
       <depends optional-attribute-name="StateManager">jboss.mq:service=StateManager</depends>
       </mbean>
       <mbean code="org.jboss.mq.server.MessageCache"
       name="jboss.mq:service=MessageCache">
       <attribute name="HighMemoryMark">50</attribute>
       <attribute name="MaxMemoryMark">60</attribute>
       <attribute name="CacheStore">jboss.mq:service=PersistenceManager</attribute>
       </mbean>
       <mbean code="org.jboss.mq.pm.jdbc2.PersistenceManager"
       name="jboss.mq:service=PersistenceManager">
       <depends optional-attribute-name="ConnectionManager">jboss.jca:service=DataSourceBinding,name=DefaultDS</depends>
       <attribute name="SqlProperties">
       ...
       ...


      * modified the ejb-jar.xml in my module

      <resource-ref>
       <description>jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.2:3306/tmp</description>
       <res-ref-name>jdbc/DefaultDS</res-ref-name>
       <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
       <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
       <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
       </resource-ref>


      * edit the entity bean method
      private javax.sql.DataSource getSavingsAccountDB() throws javax.naming.NamingException {
       javax.naming.Context c = new javax.naming.InitialContext();
       return (javax.sql.DataSource) c.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/DefaultDS");
       }
      



      So, as I sayd the entity bean correctly works, but on JBoss startup I now get an error
      19:12:20,488 ERROR [URLDeploymentScanner] Incomplete Deployment listing:

      I was not able to find the reason, but it started after I replaced the DefaultDS with MySQL.

      Back to my configuration, how can I set up multiple datasource?

      Thank you in advance.

        • 1. Re: multiple datasource
          weston.price

          If you simply want to use MySQL (or any other RDMBS) provider you simply need to create the datasource for that provider. Replacing the DefaultDS datasource would be necessary if you wanted to replace the persistence mechanism used interally by JBoss for JMS and other services.

          So, to create a datasource the steps are usually straightforward:

          1) Look in your <jboss-home/docs/examples/jca directory and see if there is a sample *-ds.xml for your database. If so, simply copy this file, replace the values with your specific values and place the file in the <jboss-home>/server/<server-config>/deploy directory. Note, any number of datasources can be specified in the *-ds.xml file so it is not limited to one file->onedatasource

          2) If there is not an example, simply copy one of the example files and replace the values with those from your JDBC driver documentation.

          More on JDBC configuration can be found on the JCA part of our Wiki:

          http://wiki.jboss.org/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=ConfigDataSources

            thanks for your reply,
            I did what you said as first attempt, but my bean kept pointing to the hsqldb, that's why I replaced the default.

            • 3. Re: multiple datasource
              weston.price

              Ok, so the problem is in your resource-ref

              When you deploy a seperate datasource, your resorce-ref needs to point to your new datasource, not DefaultDS.

              Your configuration

              <resource-ref>
               <description>jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.2:3306/tmp</description>
               <res-ref-name>jdbc/DefaultDS</res-ref-name>
               <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
               <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
               <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
               </resource-ref>
              


              Should be rewritten as

              <resource-ref>
               <description>jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.2:3306/tmp</description>
              
               <res-ref-name>jdbc/SOME-NEW_NAME-FOR-MY-DS</res-ref-name>
               <res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
               <res-auth>Container</res-auth>
               <res-sharing-scope>Shareable</res-sharing-scope>
               </resource-ref>
              
              


              The resource-ref name is simply a logical binding used in your code to avoid having to hardcode resource-JNDI names.

              Now you simply need a jboss.xml file to bind the resource-ref to the actual JNDI name in your *-ds.xml file:

               <resource-ref>
               <res-ref-name >jdbc/SOME-NEW_NAME-FOR-MY-DS</res-ref-name>
               <resource-name>THE-ACTUAL-JNDI-NAME</resource-name>
               </resource-ref>
              


              The jboss.xml file should go in the META-INF directory of your EJB jar file. My suggestion would be to start with a fresh install of JBoss, make the changes and redeploy.

                I tried to implement your solution, but it is still not working.
                What I've done:
                - restored the original configuration for the DefaultDS (../jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jms/hsqldb-jdbc2-service.xml, ../jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/hsqldb-ds.xml )

                - deleted the mysql-jdbc2-service.xml from ../jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/jms/

                - added a new file copied form the examples (../jboss-4.0.5.GA/server/default/deploy/mysql-ds.xml)

                  solved it out!

                  first of all, I decided to reinstall JBoss, because it kept giving me that error which I didn't know where was coming from and that didn't make me happy.

                  So basically the jboss.xml should had

                  <resource-name>java:savingsExampleDS</resource-name>

                  instead

                  <resource-name>savingsExampleDS</resource-name>

                  that's why it was keeping point to the default.
