    Database problem with Duke's Bank example

    nickdegraeve

      I just can't seem to get the banking example to work. This time it's apparently a database error.
      Error in browser:
      Server Error
      Your request cannot be completed. The server got the following error:

      null

      Stack trace:
      [...]

      I followed the instructions in the tutorial and edited hsqldb-ds.xml:

      <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
      <datasources>
       <local-tx-datasource>
       <jndi-name>DefaultDS</jndi-name>

       </local-tx-datasource>
       <mbean code="org.jboss.jdbc.HypersonicDatabase" name="jboss:service=Hypersonic">
       <attribute name="Port">1701</attribute>
       <attribute name="Silent">true</attribute>
       <attribute name="Database">default</attribute>
       <attribute name="Trace">false</attribute>
       <attribute name="No_system_exit">true</attribute>
       </mbean>
      </datasources>

      The Ant-scripts for creating tables and data exit without errors. I can start the HSQL Database Manager Tool and run some SQL queries that return data.

      I have to say that when I start JBoss I get in the sartup log a message that may shed some light on the problem:
      [...]
      Depends On Me:

      MBEANS THAT ARE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM:
      ObjectName: jboss:service=Hypersonic,database=localDB
      state: NOTYETINSTALLED
      I Depend On:
      Depends On Me: jboss.jca:service=ManagedConnectionFactory,name=DefaultDS

      I probably forgot to set something in the configuration files but I have no idea what.
