Hi Joe,
hmm .. guess that I had missed out the configuration part. I did exactly
what Hasan mentioned earlier.
1)Copied the JT400.jar file (JDBC driver) from lib folder unzipped from
jtopen_4_1.zip (downloaded from IBM)
2)And place it in the lib directory under CFusionMX folder.
(C:\CFusionMX\lib)
3)In the CFMX administrator create a new datasource of type OTHER.
4)use the following parameters :
-JDBC URL: jdbc:as400://123.45.67.89;libraries=ABC,DEF (or)
-JDBC URL: jdbc:as400://123.45.67.89/RST (configured for some of the
other datasources)
-Driver Class: com.ibm.as400.access.AS400JDBCDriver
More to configure than the above? Btw, I couldn't find the pdf document that
you had mentioned. I saw lots of HTML documents but couldnt' find anything
on configuration (am confused with all those documents).
When you say configuration, does it mean adding more connection properties
to the JDBC url?
-JDBC URL: jdbc:as400://123.45.67.89;libraries=ABC,DEF;{list of other
properties}
Appreciate all your help.
Thanks
Anthony
