[KasiMurugan Ramasamy]

Hi,


Iam using websphere 7. Tried to configure datasource.

But i have put the required jar in configured path.
Iam getting the following exception.


2/17/11 11:20:24:539 SGT] 00000014 DataSourceCon E DSRA8040I: Failed to connect to the DataSource. Encountered "": java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.xa.client.OracleXADataSource

Check the classpath of the jdbc driver. WebSphere can't find jar file containing OracleXADataSource class or jar file doesn't contain it.

Also you need to restart node after new data source was created. try to do it if not did yet.

Hi Sergey,

Thanks for your reply.
When I configured database provider, I expilictly mentioned full path(including, like /apps/WebSphere/AppServer7/oracle/lib/ojdbc5.jar) of the jar, where the ojdbc.jar is available.

But its not taking the jar.

Have you tried to restart a Node?

[Deepak Pant]

TestConnection feature works on the node agent process instead of the app server. So you will have to re-start the node everytime you want to test it via that button.

But you are getting class not found exception.

If you are not using any WAS variables and are pointing to the jar directly then check if WAS Unix user can see the jar file.

Hi,

The issue is resolved. The issue was the ocjdbc.jar. We uploaded the jar to Linux(appserver is running) from windows machine using some software.

That jar was corrupted. This is the reason.

Thank you guys for your response.
