Hi Francois,
I've tried the overrides -- for the database connection -- but I haven't had
any luck with them. GN doesn't appear to load the overrides and instead tries
to use the default H2 database rather than my Oracle connection. Below is my
setup and error message.
I'm running on Tomcat 6.0.24 and GN 2.8.0. I deploy the WAR file into Tomcat
and pass the following system properties to the java command that runs Tomcat:
java ...
-Dgeonetwork.dir=/var/geonetwork/2.8.0/data
-Djeeves.configuration.overrides.file=/var/geonetwork/2.8.0/etc/config-overrides.xml
... org.apache.catalina.startup.Bootstrap start
I'm using a data directory that's identical to the GN 2.8 WAR file's
WEB-INF/data right now. The /var/geonetwork/2.8.0/etc/config-overrides.xml is
as follows, based on the Configuration override documentation:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<overrides>
<file name=".*WEB-INF/config\.xml">
<removeXML xpath="resources"/>
<addXML xpath="">
<!-- BEGIN -->
<resources>
<resource enabled="true">
<name>main-db</name>
<provider>jeeves.resources.dbms.ApacheDBCPool</provider>
<config>
<user>MyUser</user>
<password>MyPassword</password>
<driver>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</driver>
<url>jdbc:oracle:thin:@MyHost:MyPort:MyDatabase</url>
<poolSize>5</poolSize>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1 FROM DUAL</validationQuery>
<testWhileIdle>true</testWhileIdle>
<minEvictableIdleTimeMillis>60000</minEvictableIdleTimeMillis>
<timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis>900000</timeBetweenEvictionRunsMillis>
<numTestsPerEvictionRun>4</numTestsPerEvictionRun>
</config>
</resource>
</resources>
<!-- END -->
</addXML>
<replaceText xpath="general/uploadDir">/var/tmp</replaceText>
<replaceText xpath="general/debug">false</replaceText>
<replaceText xpath="general/maxUploadSize">250</replaceText>
</file>
</overrides>
GN then dies with the following error (trying to start the wrong H2 database):
