Can somebody help me about it ?
I tried deploying the latest rar from the downloads, but it has a
problem in ra.xml (see firebird issue 1433327). I fixed the problem
in firebird cvs, so if you build the rar yourself it will work.
(I'll also send you a copy privately). If you want to use something
closer to the current release, you need to change in ra.xml
<credential-
interface>javax.resource.security.PasswordCredential</credential-
interface>
to
<credential-
interface>javax.resource.spi.security.PasswordCredential</credential-
interface>
and repack the rar.
Anyway, after obtaining a correct rar, you can modify the plan I will
also send privately to suit your environment and deploy to a running
server using
java -jar target/geronimo-1.1-SNAPSHOT/bin/deployer.jar --user system
--password manager deploy jaybird-2.1.0.rar jaybird-plan.xml
This deployed OK for me but I don't have a firebird installation
handy so I don't know if there are other problems. Please let me
know of your progress, I would like there to be a wiki page on using
firebird/jaybird with Geronimo.
If anyone else would like a copy of the plan I can perhaps get
started on the wiki page and attach it there.
thanks
