Thanks for the tips.  I had hoped that changing from MSQL to 9i was going to
be as easy as changing the JDBC driver.  It would appear that's not going to
be the case <sigh>.

Regards,
  Bruce

Sorry I may only provide with data about James 1.2: in that case you
had to create a table called "Message" with some fields, and then
change the DbRepository entry in the config file.
The Create Table script is not provided, but it's not hard to
figure out what should be, cooking up the sqlServer/mySql examples.
There are two caveats:
- - first you cannot use CLOB but resort to LONG VARCHAR due to a bug in Sun
jdbc
- - then there are some massaging needed for the schema to run, due
  to some synergy between workingDogs' town and Oracle Jdbc Driver.

Since you are using an upgraded version I'm not boring you with the details:
the interesting point is that in v1.2 ( in 2 also?) the repository is
screened by a java library, which creates a transparent relationship
between the objects and the tables, that is james creates the object
and this library produces the INSERT/UPDATE code needed.

In *that* version there where at least two places to begin debugging:
- - james itself fills a /log directory;
- - and workingdogs' town creates a DBxxx.log file containing the details
  of the running connection.

I cannot help more, I've tried once load & run the new james,
but I've got no way to test IMAP so there is little reason to upgrade
(I mean I'm not smart enough to judge if Imap works)

bye,
d.rizzi

I'd be really interested in any James 2.0 / Oracle 9i information that you
could share.

Thanks,
  Bruce

I've spent boxing day setting up james 1.2 with Oracle 9i,
but finally it works. Would you state if you are using 1.2 or 2.*?

I am having problem with using oracle repository, I have created a db
datasource as below:
        <data-source name="maildb"

class="org.apache.avalon.excalibur.datasource.JdbcDataSource">
         <driver>oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver</driver>
         <dburl>jdbc:oracle:thin:@JWANG:1521:JWANG</dburl>
         <user>system</user>
         <password>manager</password>
        </data-source>


and then I set up the inbox repository,
      <inboxRepository>
        <repository destinationURL="db://maildb/inbox/"
                    type="MAIL">
        </repository>
      </inboxRepository>

and I have also setup the db repository for users and list,

I have created the tables by myself, including inbox,users,lists tables,

I have also put classes12.jar (oracle jdbc driver) into the lib directory,

When I started the james, it hanged there, no error messages, no log coming
out, the only message I saw is:

"Phoenix 3.1a1-dev"

What is going on? Can anyone help me?
Thanks very much!
John W
