CommonServices: database.properties

RonaldV

Hi,

in the database.properties of the CommonServices (under config/private) one can update the database connection details (as per page 89 of install-guide).

But actually the file contains a double entry for servername, port & database-name. Does anybody know what is the reason behind this?:

[PHP]connection.driver_class=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
connection.url=jdbc:sqlserver://1.1.1.1:1433;databaseName=cms
connection.username=teamsite
connection.password=blahblah

database.type=mssql
database.name=cms
database.port=1433
database.server=1.1.1.1[/PHP]

Are other 'services' reading this file too?

[Reason i ask is that i am trying to do some fancy stuff with integrated-authentication but this is mysteriously failing)

I don't, but I can offer an educated guess

The first set looks like standard JDBC properties, whereas the latter looks more like the type of thing you'd feed to a Spring config. So either they changed their implementation and one set is no longer used at all, or they're using two completely separate connection pools for some ungodly reason.
