5.4.3 Configuring SQL Server for Adobe-preconfigured JBoss

1. Open the [appserver root]/server/lc_sqlserver/deploy/adobe-ds.xml file in a text editor and locate this line:

   <connection-url>jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=adobe</connection-url> 
   <driver-class>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</driver-class> 
   <security-domain>MSSQLDbRealm</security-domain>

2. Replace the following text from the above line with values that are specific to your database:

   • localhost: The name, IP address, or fully-qualified path of the computer that hosts the database. The default is localhost.

   • 1433: The port used to access the database. The default port is 1433.

   • adobe: The name of the database that stores the LiveCycle data. You will need to update the default value, adobe, with your database name.

3. In the lines that follow the <connection-url> settings, locate the user-name and password settings and replace the default values with the user name and password that the application server uses to access your database.

4. Ensure that the minimum and maximum values for the data source connections are set as follows:

   • For IDP_DS:

     <min-pool-size>1</min-pool-size> 
     <max-pool-size>30</max-pool-size>

   • For EDC_DS:

     <min-pool-size>1</min-pool-size> 
     <max-pool-size>20</max-pool-size>

     Note: If your LiveCycle server handles heavy load, increase the number of maximum JDBC connections to ensure that all jobs are processed. In such cases, increase <max-pool-size> to 50 or more for both IDP_DS and EDC_DS.

5. Save and close the file.

If you are running LiveCycle with a MS SQL Server database, you must set SQL Server as the default data source for JBoss. This procedure assumes that the SQL Server JDBC driver is installed in the [appserver root]/server/lc_sqlserver/lib directory.

1. Open the [appserver root]/server/lc_sqlserver/deploy/mssql-ds.xml file in a text editor and modify the <local-tx-datasource> element with your SQL Server connection settings:

   <jndi-name>DefaultDS</jndi-name> 
   <connection-url>jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;DatabaseName=adobe</connection-url> 
   <driver-class>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</driver-class> 
   <security-domain>MSSQLDbRealm</security-domain>

2. Replace the bold text in the above lines with values that are specific to your database:

   localhost: Replace this value with the host name of your SQL Server.

   1433: If SQL Server is not using the default port, replace this value with the appropriate port number.

   adobe: Replace this value with your SQL Server database name.

3. In the lines that follow the <connection-url> settings, locate the user-name and password settings and replace the default values with the user name and password that the application server uses to access your database.

   Note: The JDBC driver for SQL Server does not parse numeric IPv6 addresses. If you are employing the SQL Server in an IPv6 environment, the server name must be specified in the following format:

   <connection-url>jdbc:sqlserver://;serverName=<IPv6 address>; portNumber=<port>;databaseName=<db_name></connection-url>

   Note: When you specify the IPv6 address of the server in this format, you must note that the string ;serverName is a keyword; it must not be replaced with the actual server name.

4. Save and close the file.

1. Open the [appserver root]/server/lc_sqlserver/conf/login-config.xml file in a text editor and modify the following code within the <policy> element:

   <application-policy name="MSSQLDbRealm"> 
       <authentication> 
           <login-module 
           code="org.jboss.resource.security.SecureIdentityLoginModule" flag  
           = "required"> 
           <module-option name="principal">adobe</module-option> 
           <module-option name="userName">adobe</module-option> 
           <module-option name="password">adobe</module-option> 
           <module-option 
           name="managedConnectionFactoryName">jboss.jca:service=LocalTxCM, 
           name=DefaultDS</module-option> 
           </login-module> 
       </authentication> 
   </application-policy>

2. Replace the bold text with values that are specific to your database so that the application server can access your database.

3. Save and close the file.

4. Start JBoss.

1. Using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, connect to the database server that hosts the LiveCycle database.

2. Set the Authentication mode to Windows authentication.

3. Under Security > Logins, create a new account for the Windows domain user and select Windows authentication.

4. Click User Mapping on the Login - New screen and set the database and default schema for the new user.

5. Select db_owner as the Database role and click OK.

To verify that you created the user, expand the LiveCycle database in the tree and open Security > Users. The new user appears in the list of users.

If you are installing from Microsoft Download Center, follow the instructions on the website for downloading and installing the driver. Make a note of the directory location where you install the driver on your system.

1. Modify the adobe-ds.xml and mssql-ds.xml files, located in [appserver root]\server\lc_sqlserver\deploy, to add integratedSecurity=true to the connection URL as shown in this example:

   jdbc:sqlserver://<hostname>:<port>;databaseName=<db-name>;integratedSecurity=true.

2. Replace the values shown in bold in the above example with values appropriate to your database server.

3. Add the sqljdbc_auth.dll file to the Windows systems path (C:\Windows) on the computer that is running JBoss. The sqljdbc_auth.dll file is located within the Microsoft SQL JDBC 3.0 driver installation The default location is [SQL_root]/sqljdbc_3.0/enu/auth/x86 for 32-bit operating systems and [SQL_root]/sqljdbc_3.0/enu/auth/x64 for 64-bit operating systems.

   Note: Use SQL Server JDBC Driver 4.0 for Microsoft SQL Server 2008.

4. Open the properties for the JBoss for Adobe LiveCycle ES4 service or the JBoss service that you configured, and click the Log On tab.

5. Select ThisAccount and type the value of the user account that you mapped in 5.4.3.4 Map the Windows login to the LiveCycle database user. If you are running JBoss from the command line, you must be logged in as this user.
