Information for creating JDBC connections
Use default values when you create JDBC connections if specific values are not provided. For more information, see the application server documentation.
- If you are not using the default port setting for your database, make sure that you change it to the correct value.
- Do no select the database type "Informix" during installation of 12.1.0, as it is not functional.
WebLogic
Use the following values if your application server is WebLogic:
SQLServer
-
Database Driver: Microsoft™ MS SQL Server Driver 2014, 2016 SP1, 2017
-
Default port: 1433
-
Driver class:
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver

Tomcat
Specify the native library path of the database driver JAR file on your server. For example: db2jcc4.jar/ojdbc8.jar/sqljdbc-6.4.0.jre8.jar to create a datasource under Tomcat Interact Instance, add folder hierarchy as <Tomcat_Home>/conf/Catalina/localhost, create a xml file with the name Offer.xml under localhost folder. Add data source pointing to Runtime, Test, Production, and learning database in interact.xml, refer platform or Campaign xml file which is created through installers inside their respective Tomcat instance directory. You will need to create these Data source entry in Campaign Tomcat instance too.
