Hi !!!
I am just curious and a bit clueless. I updated Orion recently and
suddenly I have "internal" problems parsing the datasource XML file. The problem I get
is that I create a datasource like this:
javax.naming.Context context = new javax.naming.InitialContext();
String dsName = (String) context.lookup("java:comp/env/datasource-name");
javax.sql.DataSource datasource = (javax.sql.DataSource) context.lookup(dsName);
And it is created OK, but as soon as I call : Connection conn =
datasource.getConnection();
An exception is created reporting java.lang.NullPointerException. And the
exception is created ** inside ** the getConnection method.
But that happens only if I created the connection inside my beans, which I compile
with Jbuilder. If I create and use a datasource directly on the jsp page ( and hence
letting orion compile it into a servlet ) then it works OK.
Has anyone observed this as well ? Or has a clue ?
Just in case, my datasources looks like this:
----------------------------------------------------
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE data-sources PUBLIC "Orion data-sources"
"http://www.orionserver.com/dtds/data-sources.dtd">
<data-sources>
<data-source
name="Default data-source"
class="com.evermind.sql.ConnectionDataSource"
location="jdbc/agreement"
pooled-location="jdbc/DefaultPooledDS"
xa-location="jdbc/xa/DefaultXADS"
ejb-location="jdbc/DefaultEJBDS"
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@ELCON00:1521:orcl"
connection-driver="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
username="myuser"
password="mypassword"/>
/>
</data-sources>
-----------------------------------------------------
and web.xml contains an entry like this
<env-entry>
<env-entry-name>datasource-name</env-entry-name>
<env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
<env-entry-value>jdbc/agreement</env-entry-value>
</env-entry>
