[opencms-dev] Urgent Opencms hangs Oracle 9IAS 9.0.3

[Maurizio Barucco]

Hi Dariush,
I'm trying to use your pool implementation with datasources.

I have noticed that the datasource configuration for oracleOci and
oracleOcionline is the same for location and xa-location parameters. 
Is this correct?

Hi Alex,
my datasource implementation doesn't substitute at all the default connpool,

but it's an alternative.
Simply, you can decide to use it or not (setting useDataSource=true/false).
If you decide to use DataSource, OpenCms  instantiates DataSourceDriver 
instead of CmsDriver.
If you want the default connPool, you set useDataSource=false.

Moreover, like the default connPool, U need 3 different datasources and 
their name is the same of orig connPool (for example oracleOci, 
oracleOcionline, oracleOcibackup).

- For the shell, it can be forced to use connPool even if useDataSource=true

in opencms.properties

- For setup, simply I think that you should mantain the actual one and give 
the opportunity, in production env, to make it possibile to switch to an 
external datasource, especially using Oracle, modifying the 
opencms.properties directly.

Dariush.
