Error description
Using Rational Application Developer V7.5.1, when creating an In formix Datasource from an existing connection on the Data perspe ctive, the datasource is created with the configuration of the c onnection but these are not compatible with Websphere applicatio n server. 1. When you create a database connection from the Data perspecti ve, only the ifxjdbc.jar is required and it is the only one prov ided with the Data tooling in RAD. When using this database connection to create a reference in a W eb project, the EAR descriptor (resources.xml) will be updated w ith the classpath of the connection: (right-click on the connect ion and select 'Add JDBC Connection to Project..') ?resources.jdbc:JDBCProvider xmi:id='JDBCProvider_1232460351843' name='Generated Informix JDBC Provider' description='Auto Genera ted - Informix JDBC Driver' implementationClassName='com.informi x.jdbcx.IfxConnectionPoolDataSource' ? ?classpath?C:\Program Files\IBM\SDPShared\plugins\com.ibm.datato ols.informix.driver_1.0.0.v200803311841\driver\ifxjdbcx.jar?/cla sspath? ?classpath?C:\Program Files\IBM\SDPShared\plugins\com.ibm.datato ols.informix.driver_1.0.0.v200803311841\driver\ifxjdbc.jar?/clas spath? ... The problem is that ifxjdbcx.jar is missing at this location. 2. When using Informix 11 Data Server Driver, Data tooling will use a jar file named db2jcc.jar while Websphere is expecting db2 jcc4.jar (see http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/wasinfo/v7r0/topic /com.ibm.websphere.base.doc/info/aes/ae/rdat_minreqinformix.html ) Steps to reproduce 1) Create an Informix 11 connection using the default JDBC drive r (provided with RAD) 2) Add it to an EAR, right-click on the connection and select 'A dd JDBC Connection to Project 3) Deploy the EAR on WAS and test it: error should be raised Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.informix.jdbcx. IfxConnectionPoolDataSource
