    Having problem in connecting with firebird database

    ishq

      Hi

      I have tried the session bean connecting with hypersonic databse it works well. But i could not make it possible with firebird/interbase. I have paseted firebird-ds.xml at JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy and also firebirdsql.rar within the same directory as directed by Jaybird doc. And i also changed the name of referrence in ejb-jar.xml i.e. from java:/DefaultDS to java:/FirebirdDS

      I have set the username, path and database file path in the above mentioned files. For making me clear i am pasting the code of the above files as follows:

      firebird-ds.xml

          Could you at least tell us the error message you are getting?

          Which version of JBoss (there are some differences)?

          You should not need to modify ra.xml (I never ever looked inside the firebirdsql.rar file and have everything working just fine).

            Hi

            When i have pasted firebirdsql.rar and firebird-ds.xml it gives the following error

            This time i have pasted firebirdsql.rar without making any changes to ra.xml i.e. leaves username, password and path of database fields. But instead i got the same error.

            If i try to run my code with DefaultDS i.e. Hypersonic DB it works fine but with firebird it cannot make the connection.

            Well! thanks for considering my problem
            bye

              Hi again

              Version which i m using is JBoss 4.0.0RC1. You can see Home, client, remote interface and bean implementation class code in my previous post.

              Can u please tell me step by step if it is possible that what should i do to make firebird database capable enough to work with my deployed application.

              Thanks!!!
