Error in creating a DataSource inVisual Administrator

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

My requirement is to connect to an external oracle database, for which I am trying to create a DATA SOURCE in Visual Administrator.

the approach I followed is as given in many threads,

In JDBC Connector service in Visual Admin:

1. Created a driver using ojdbc.jar

2. Created a datasource using the above driver,

but after filling all the values, when I save it, I get following error(some part is displayed here):

java.rmi.RemoteException: com.sap.engine.services.dbpool.exceptions.BaseRemoteException: Error during start of application "sap.com/DS_ConnectOracle". [id = StartupError]

at com.sap.engine.services.dbpool.deploy.DataSourceManagerImpl.startApplication(DataSourceManagerImpl.java:608)

at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method)

Also this application name comes from where?

why it is not able to start the application?

Just to inform I am successfully able to connect to database using webdynpro application where I have coded the lines to connect to Oracle database.

But DataSource thng is not working.

just to inform the issue is resolved, I got to know the cause.

actually I was giving the DataSource Name & DataSource Alias Name as same,

while they must be different.
