Re: Witango-Talk: Linux / JDBC Installation... NOW Data Source MappingSuggestion

[John McGowan]

I thought it was going to be something like that...  I'll do that while I'm testing my app on linux... Now, for a suggestion.  Since it's possible that i might want to run the exact same application on different platforms, using different methods to access the same database.  it sure would be nice to be able to set up a mapping on the tango server, in the datasources.ini or the jdbc.ini file that would allow something like this... <DSMap>  <FromDS>   <DSType>ODBC</DSType>   <DSName>bob</DSName>  </FromDS>  <ToDS>   <DSType>JDBC</DSType>   <DSName>bob</DSName>  </ToDS> </DSMap> This way any reference to the odbc.bob datasource will go to the jdbc.bob data source instead.  allowing me to maintain only 1 version of my application. /John P.S.

JRE 1.4.1 is running and ive setup my jdbc.ini file. I've got a taf file that references a data source let's call it "bob" I setup a jdbc datasource called "bob" in jdbc.ini, but when running the taf file i'm getting a data source not found error... when looking at the output from the witango server on the console, it's saying that it can't find the data source "odbc.bob" Do I have to do something different to get a data source that used to be odbc to now be jdbc, other than setting up a jdbc data source on the server? /John ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/maillist.taf ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/maillist.taf ________________________________________________________________________ TO UNSUBSCRIBE: Go to http://www.witango.com/maillist.taf
