Hi,
I'm working on a project for a client that will run on both windows and linux, to use Java to run JDBC/SQL queries for Unity Connection 7. Has anyone achieved this? I've looked at Ciscounitytools.com and configured the database proxy service (which connects via TCP 20532) with Unity Connection and tried different Informix JDBC drivers. Any help/guidance would be greatly appreciated!!!
When attempting to establish a connection via JDBC, I keep getting SQL error code -908
com.informix.asf.IfxASFException: Attempt to connect to database server (myunityserver) failed
thanks!!!

Hi,
-908 indicates that the server couldn't be contacted. Double check the following:
1. Make sure that the DBProxy shutdown shutdown timer is non-zero.
2. Make sure that you have started the DBProxy service from the serviceabilty web page
3. Verify that the proxy is running using telnet: "telnet mycucaddress 20532" on Windows or "telnet mycucaddress:20532" on UNIX
4. Download cudli from CiscoUnityTools.com and verify connectivity that way
5. Note that the default administrator user doesn't have permissions to access the database. You need to create a user for that purpose. Refer to the help file in Cudli for more information.
Regards,
Paul

Hi,
I have the same problem as described above. Did the problem ever get solved?
I have double checked the list and all checks. I can connect from CUDI without a problem.
I use the following code to try to connect (and have added ifxjdbc.jar to the classpath):
Class.forName("com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver");
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:informix-sqli://cuxn71:20532/UnityDirDb:INFORMIXSERVER=ciscounity", "admin", "password");
The second line throws the same exception a the first post (¿java.sql.SQLException: com.informix.asf.IfxASFException: Attempt to connect to database server (ciscounity) failed.¿, -908)
I have tested with both versions 3.00 JC3 and 3.50 JC4DE of the IBM Informix JDBC driver. But with the same result.
Any help is appreciated, I am out of ideas.
thanks,
Petter

Has anyone gotten JDBC to Unity Connection working? The IBM/Informix forums mention needing the DBPATH specified as a file.

after failing to get this stuff working using pure jdbc, was able to get it to work using jdbc-odbc bridge. may not work for every one. hope this helps some who can afford to run on windows.
jdbc configuration:
================
driver: sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver
url: jdbc:odbc:unity-ibm-informix;Database=UnityDirDB
odbc configuration
================
servername:ciscounity
hostname:<hostname>
port:20532
protocol:onsoctcp
DatabaseName:UnityDirDB
Isolation level(advanced tab): read committed
