Installing the JDBC Adapter Form
|
|
The following steps are only necessary when installing the adapter to run out-of-process with Info*Engine on a different host. Otherwise, proceed to Creating a JDBC Adapter LDAP Entry. |
The JDBC adapter maintains its properties as attributes in adapter LDAP entries. To define the adapter name and other adapter attributes, and to establish adapter properties, you must create a JDBC adapter LDAP entry using the Info*Engine Property Administration utility.
Use the Info*Engine Property Administration utility to add or modify existing Info*Engine adapter service LDAP entries. Running the adapter installer creates the jdbc.ldif file under the specified installation location. When imported into the Property Administration utility, this file provides the form you use to create the JDBC adapter LDAP entry.
For general information the Info*Engine Property Administration utility, see the Info*Engine Implementation Guide and the online help provided in the Property Administration utility.
When installing the adapter to run out-of-process with Info*Engine on a different host, you must manually import the jdbc.ldif file using the following steps:
1. Log into the Info*Engine host as any user.
2. Copy the jdbcAdapter.jar file from the adapter installation directory to the codebase\WEB-INF\lib directory where Info*Engine is installed.
The Info*Engine Property Administration utility needs the resource bundle that is in the jdbcAdapter.jar file in order to display the correct text on the JDBC adapter form.
3. From the Info*Engine Property Administration utility, click the [Import/Export] link.
4. Select the Overwrite leaf entries if they exist checkbox.
5. Browse to the jdbc.ldif file that resides under the adapter installation location.
6. Click OK to import the form.
This overwrites any existing JDBC form and returns you to the main page.
