  1. Download the SQL Server JDBC driver (v1.3.1) from jTDS.
  2. Add the SQL Server JDBC driver jar (jtds-1.3.1.jar) to <Tomcat><tomcat-install>/lib/ directory.

3. Configure a DataSource for TermWeb in Tomcat

  1. Edit <tomcat-install>/conf/context.xml

     

  2. Within the Context tags, insert the DataSource Resource tag:

    <Resource name="jdbc/TermWebDS"
    auth="Container"
    type="javax.sql.DataSource"
    driverClassName="net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver"
    url="jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://localhost/termwebdb;user=termwebuser;password=termwebpwd;useLOBs=false"
    maxActive="20"
    maxIdle="10"
    validationQuery="Select 1"/>

      • If SQL Server does not run on the same server as Tomcat, replace localhost in url with the name of the database server
      • If you named the database something else than termwebdb, replace termwebdb in url with your database name 
      • Replace termwebuser and termwebpwd in url with your database user and password.
