Configuring Tomcat to Use Connection Pool

[JiaPei Jen]

I am configuring the Tomcat for using connection pool. And the configuration requires us to provide the database name in the <url> element.

<parameter>
<name>url</name> 
<value>jdbc :o racle:thin:@172.19.47.22:1521 :D evora2</value> 
</parameter>

Question 1. Is there a colon between "jdbc racle:thin" and the @ sign.

Question 2. Does it mean the devora2 is the database name?

Question 3. I am told the schema name is "xyz". where should I put the schema name?

Thanks in advance.

JiaPei,
1) Yes, there is a colon there.
2) It's actually the SID. (system id) This is similar conceptually to a database name.
3) You don't put it in the URL. Once you have a connection, the schema is used in queries. For example, select * from xyz.table.

Question 1. Is there a colon between "jdbcracle:thin" and the @ sign.
Answer: Yes. Source: Google!

Question 2. Does it mean the devora2 is the database name?
Answer: Yes, kinda; technically it's the Oracle SID.

Question 3. I am told the schema name is "xyz". where should I put the schema name?
The schema name in an Oracle DB is effectively the username. Does that help?
