Installation with SAPDB/MaxDB

[Ralf Schneider <ml...@tapfere-schneiderleins.de>]

Hi,

I'm trying to install Jetspeed 2 using the MultiDb-Installer. I want to use a 
MaxDB 7.5 as database. I created a new database instance J2 for the Jetspeed 
installation. When I enter sapdb as database type I get an error saying 
"source file not found".

When I look under /tmp/antinstall/database there's no sapdb directory which  I 
guess is expected by the installer. How can I get the installation running 
for a SAPDB/MaxDB database?

Best regards,
Ralf.

Jetspeed accesses SQL databases with OJB (http://db.apache.org/ojb/)

OJB supports SAPDB, see supported platforms:

http://db.apache.org/ojb/docu/guides/platforms.html

However, we have not tested Jetspeed with SAPDB or MaxDB
Also, we are currently dependent on database-specific DDL for the seed 
scripts,  so there may be problems there

The 2.0 installer does not support SAPDB
Suggest building from source, and configuring Jetspeed to run against SAPDB
