Hello Philipp,

the JCRBrowser just takes whatever you configured in the 
repository.xml and does not depend on a specific configuration.

thanks for the quick reply!

but when I try to connect to a repository that uses a datasource in the
PersistenceManager configuration, I get the following error dialog: 
"It was not possible to login. Please check the credentials" with the
following details: Unable to create connection.: Unable to create
connection.

Do I need to create a datasource in Eclipse, so JCRBrowser can use it?
(how?)
When I connect to a test repository that has a different persistence
manager
I can browse the repository (both have the same credentials)

ahh ok: When you use the Local Jackrabbit Repository the JCRBrowser 
starts the repository within the plugin by using the classpath that 
is configured for this Eclipse plugin. Of course this works for usual 
use cases that don't need additional or other versions of classes or 
jars. If you need a new persistance manager class in the classpath I 
recommend dropping Jackrabbit in a Tomcat and configuring your custom 
classpath there. Then you can use the "Remote Java Content 
Repository" connection of the JCRBrowser to browse through the content.

Sandro


again, thanks for the quick reply!

should this also work, when the repository is deployed as a resource 
adapter
in weblogic?


If whatever starts the Jackrabbit repository in this case also registers 
the repository to an RMI port than it will work.
In the default Jackrabbit war the job is done by the 
RepositoryStartupServlet.registerRMI() method, but I don't know how it 
works for a resource adapter.

Sandro


Just to avoid problems with your admin: Don't forget that opening a new 
port my have consequences for your firewall rules ... ;-)
