Modifications for Oracle

Modifications to the tutorial for using an Oracle database instead of a SQL Server database.

Prerequisites

This tutorial begins where Tutorial: Reusing Existing COBOL Programs in a Java Web Services Environment left off, using the Apache Tomcat application server, and the same CobolBook and JSPBookDemo projects. Therefore, you must complete that tutorial in its entirety, using the Tomcat 7 application server, before starting this tutorial. See Tutorial: Reusing Existing COBOL Programs in a Java Web Services Environment for complete instructions.

You must also install Oracle Database 11g Express Edition.

Modifications

This section explains the modifications you need to make to the SQL Server version of the tutorial so that the application works with Oracle instead of SQL Server.

Install and Configure a JDBC Driver

Install a JDBC Driver

This tutorial uses the Oracle Database 11g Release 2 JDBC driver to connect to Oracle 11g Express Edition. Follow these instructions instead of the instructions in the Install a JDBC Driver section of the Install and Configure a JDBC Driver topic:

Open the Oracle download page in your Web browser using this URL:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/jdbc-112010-090769.html
Under JDBC Thin for All Platforms, download the ojdbc6.jar file to your local machine, noting the directory where it is saved.

Copy the JDBC Driver to Tomcat

Follow the instructions provided in the Copy the JDBC Driver to Tomcat section of the Install and Configure a JDBC Driver topic, but copy the ojdbc6.jar file to the lib subdirectory of your Apache Tomcat installation.

Change the Tomcat HTTP Port

By default, Oracle uses port 8080 which is the same as Tomcat. To avoid conflict, change the Tomcat HTTP port as follows:

In Project Explorer, expand Servers > Tomcat v7.0 Server at localhost-config.
Double-click server.xml to open it in the editor.

Change:

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000"
port="8080" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>

To:

<Connector connectionTimeout="20000"
port="9000" protocol="HTTP/1.1" redirectPort="8443"/>

Click File > Save to save server.xml.

Define a Connection and Load an Oracle Database

Create the Oracle Database

The tutorial uses the standard Oracle XE database that is included in the product; therefore, you do not need to create a database for this tutorial.

Start Enterprise Developer

If you have closed Enterprise Developer since completing Tutorial: Reusing Existing COBOL Programs in a Java Environment, open it again; then open the Java EE perspective and the Project Explorer.

Define an Oracle Connection

Follow the instructions provided in the Define a SQL Server Connection section of the Create and Load a SQL Server Database topic, with the following modifications:

Connection Profile dialog box, select the Oracle profile type.
On the New Driver Definition dialog box Name/Type tab, select Oracle Thin Driver (for System Version 11).
On the JAR List tab, follow these instructions:
1. Click Add JAR/Zip.
2. Browse to the local directory that contains your downloaded ojdbc6.jar file, and double-click the file to select it.
  This adds the file to the Driver file list.

On the Properties tab, use the following information:

Property	Value
SID	`Xe`
Host	`Localhost`
Port number	`1521`
User name	`Scott` ¹
Password	`tiger` ^1,2
Connection URL	`jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:xe`
¹ Connection credentials used for this tutorial. ² Password is case sensitive.

Follow these steps on the New Connection Profile dialog box:
1. Click Test Connection.
2. When the connection succeeds, clear the message box; then click Finish to save the connection and close the New Connection Profile dialog box.

Add an SQL Script

Follow the instructions provided in the Add an SQL Script section of the Create and Load a SQL Server Database topic, with the following modifications:

Name the new script file SetupOraBooks.sql.

Add the following contents:
