Follow the step to configure oracle data
source in WebSphere Application Server v 8.5
on Linux:
If u want to watch installation process click on below link
Note:
I installed oracle Express edition on Linux. U can download oracle
express from internet and also download
"ojdbc6.jar" from internet.
Check below links for installation and add new user.
1.First create one deployment profile
(dmgr), one Custom profile (node).
2.Federate node to dmgr.
3.Open Admin Console in browser.
4.I divided this task into 3 parts
(Generally to configure data source we will follow like this only).
1)Creating
an authentication alias.
2)Creating
the JDBC provider.
3)Creating
data source.
5)Let us do it now..........
Task 1) Creating an authentication alias:
Normally an
authentication alias is required to access database. An authentication alias
contains user ID and Password.
Now follow the step to complete
this step.
1)Login to admin console, Expand
Security------->Click on "Global Security"
2)In authentication page, Expand
"Java Authentication and Authorization Service"-------->Click on
"J2C authentication data".
3)Click on "New".
4)Provide the values for Alias, User ID
and Password. Here User Id and Password must have to access the database.
ex:
Alias ----------- Sample_login
User
ID ----------- sample (It is my database User ID)
Password ----------- xxxxxxxx(It
is my database password)
Note: Here User ID and Password change
according to your database.
5)Click on "Apply". Then Click
on "review" and select the check box "Synchronize changes with
Nodes" and click on "Save". Click on "Ok".
6)Now u can check an authentication alias is
created. It is like below image.
7)We completed first task......Now we will
move to next task.....
Task 2)Creating the JDBC provider:
Follow the steps to
complete this task.......
1)Expand "Resources" in the
admin console.
2)Expand "JDBC". Click on
"JDBC Provides".
3)Select the Scope( I selected node
scope).Then Click on "New".
4)Provide the Database type, Provider
Type, Implementation type and Name. Then click on "Next"
Ex:
Database
type -------- oracle
Provider
type -------- oracle JDBC Driver
Implementation
type -------- Connection pool data source
Name -------- oracle JDBC Driver (It is
default name. If u want to change u will modify it).
5)Provide the path for jar files.(Where it
is saved in your box).Then click on "Next".
6)Verify summary. Click on
"Finish". Then Click on "review" and select the check box
"Synchronize changes with Nodes" and click on "Save". Click
on "OK".
7)Now u can check JDBC driver is created.
8) We completed Second task......Now we
will move to last task.....
Task 3)Creating data source:
Follow the steps to
complete this task......
1) 1)Expand "Resources" in the
admin console.
2)Expand "JDBC". Click on
"Data sources".
3) Select the Scope( I selected node
scope).Then Click on "New".
4)Provide Data source name and JNDI name.
Then click on "Next".
ex:
Data
source name -------- sample
JNDI
name -------- jndi/sample
5)Select "select an existing JDBC
provide" radio button. Then select "oracle JDBC driver" in drop
down list. Then click on "Next".
6)Specify the URL.
ex:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:XE
7)Select "Component-managed
authentication alias", "Mapping-configuration alias " and
"Container-managed authentication alias" from dropdown list. Then click
on "Next".
ex:
Component-managed
authentication alias ---- Sample_login
Container-managed
authentication alias ---- Sample_login
Here Sample_login is name of an
authentication alias.
8)Verify summary. Click on
"Finish". Then Click on "review" and select the check box
"Synchronize changes with Nodes" and click on "Save". Click
on "OK".
9)Now u can check Data source is created.
8) We completed all tasks......Now we will
check test connection.....
9)Select "sample"(My data source
name) and click on "Test
connection".
10)Verify test connection is successful or
not. If it is successful u will get message like below image.
