Sonar-Runner talks to the local database - sonarqube

I am trying to understand the sonar-runner http://docs.sonarqube.org/display/SONAR/Installing+and+Configuring+SonarQube+Runner. I have a central sonar server that has a database in the same host. As expected I run the sonar-runner from my clients in numerous boxes and expect them to upload data to the sonar cube.
My sonar-project.properties looks something like below
# Required metadata
sonar.projectKey=a:b
sonar.projectName=b-1.0
sonar.projectVersion=1.0
# Comma-separated paths to directories with sources (required)
sonar.sources=lib
# Language
sonar.language=py
# Encoding of the source files
sonar.sourceEncoding=UTF-8
# Host of the sonar url
sonar.host.url=http://myserver:9000/msde/sonar/webapp
I was expecting that my client would perform some analysis and upload data directly to the server using some web services meant for upload. I however see the following in my logs
10:42:00.678 INFO - Apply project exclusions
10:42:00.682 WARN - H2 database should be used for evaluation purpose only
10:42:00.682 INFO - Create JDBC datasource for jdbc:h2:tcp://localhost/sonar
10:42:00.755 INFO - Initializing Hibernate
Question
Should I be configuring the details of the database in the sonar-project.properties? I was expecting it to use some webservice from the sonar url to upload metrics but there are several problems with exposing the database details. I wanted the database to be internal to the server and not accessed by various clients.
This also means that I should place the database details in various property files in several projects so the cost of changing the central database details is huge.

You need to edit the $SONARQUBE_RUNNER_HOME/conf/sonar-runner.properties file to point to the correct database instance. And this is the only file you need to do that for all your projects.

If you are using MySQL, in the HOME_SONAR_RUNNER\conf\sonnar-runner.properties file, you have to uncomment the line that relates with MySQL, leaving the line as this:
sonar.jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sonar?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=utf8
In the same file, don't forget to comment next:
#sonar.host.url=http://localhost:9000
Save the file and run again.

Where is <TeamCity Data Directory>/config/database.<database_type>.properties.dist?

I'm trying to migrate my TeamCity server to use SQL Server following the instructions at https://confluence.jetbrains.com/display/TCD10/Migrating+to+an+External+Database.
In step 3 it says
Create a temporary properties file with a custom name (for example, database.database_type.properties) for the target database using the corresponding template (TeamCity Data Directory/config/database.database_type.properties.dist).
but I can't find database.database_type.properties.dist anywhere on disk or in the installer package.
Where is database.database_type.properties.dist?
It's database.<database_type>.properties.dist where <database_type> in your case is mssql, so you should look for a file database.mssql.properties.dist.
The file is under <TeamCity data directory>/config. Path to the data directory you can see on Administration -> Global Settings page in TeamCity web interface.

Mule Connect to remote flat files

I am new to Mule and I have been struggling with a simple issue for a while now. I am trying to connect to flat files (.MDB, .DBF) located on a remote desktop through my Mule application using the generic database connector of Mule. I have tried different things here:
I am using StelsDBF and StelsMDB drivers for the JDBC connectivity. I tried connecting directly using jdbc URL - jdbc:jstels:mdb:host/path
I have also tried to access through FTP by using FileZilla server on remote desktop and using jdbc URL in my app - jdbc:jstels:dbf:ftp://user:password#host:21/path
None of these seem to be working as I am always getting Connection exceptions. If anyone has tried this before, what is the best way to go about it? Connecting a remote flat file with Mule? Your response on this will be greatly appreciated!
If you want to load the contents of the file inside a Mule flow you should use the file or FTP connector, i don't know for sure about your JDBC option.
With the File connector you can access local files (files on the server where mule is running), you could try to mount the folders as a share.
Or run an FTP server like you already tried, that should work.
There is probably an error in your syntax / connection.
Please paste the complete XML of your Mule flow so we can see what you are trying to do.
Your usecase is still not really clear to me, are you really planning to use http to trigger the DB everytime? Anyway did you try putting the file on a local path and use that path in your database url. Here is someone that says he had it working, he created a separate bean.
http://forums.mulesoft.com/questions/6422/setting_property_dynamically_on_jdbcdatasource.html
I think a local path is maybe possible and it's better to test that first.
Also take note of how to refer to a file path, look at the examples for the file connector: https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-user-guide/v/3.7/file-transport-reference#namespace-and-syntax
If you manage to get it working and you can use the path directly in the JDBC url, you should have a look at the poll scope.
https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-user-guide/v/3.7/poll-reference
You can use your DB connector as an inbound endpoint when wrapped in a poll scope.
I experienced the same issue when connect to Microsoft Access Database (*.mdb, *.accdb) using Mule Database Connector. After further investigation, it's solved by installing Microsoft Access Database Engine
Another issue, I couldn't pass parameter to construct a query as same as I do for other databases. e.g.: SELECT * FROM emplcopy WHERE id = #[payload.id]
To solve this issue:
I changed the Query type from Parameterized into Dynamic.
I generated the query inside Set Payload transformer (generate the query in form of String, e.g.: SELECT * FROM emplcopy WHERE id = '1').
Finally, put it into the Dynamic query area: #[payload]

Adding a jdbc driver to pentaho design studio and configuring the datasource

I've just integrated pentaho's design studio into the BI server. Does anyone know how to add mysql jdbc drivers. I need to connect in order to define the relational action process.
In my research I found:
http://wiki.bizcubed.com.au/xwiki/bin/view/Pentaho%20Tutorial/Install%20Pentaho%20Design%20Studio#Comments
which specifies selecting
JDBC Driver, Edit, Extra Class Path from Preferences but no such preference exists,
http://forums.pentaho.com/showthread.php?85148-Design-Studio-xaction-database-connection-dropdown-list-empty&highlight=add+jdbc+driver+to+design+studio
which resulted in me creating a jdbc folder in which I placed the drivers in plugins\org.pentaho.designstudio.editors.actionsequence_4.0.0.stable\lib\
but just as the author of the thread I'm stuck
http://forums.pentaho.com/showthread.php?53303-Create-a-new-datasource&highlight=add+jdbc+driver+to+design+studio
suggests that:
3. If you are using the Pentaho DesignStudio you have to copy your jdbc (JAR files) to the plugins directory (in pentaho plugin) so you can develop, deploy and run your applications. This apply also to eclipse plugin (If you have now an Eclipse).
Which resulted in me placing the jar files in the plugin directory to no avail.
http://forums.pentaho.com/showthread.php?53715-Can-t-add-new-datasource-GA-version&highlight=add+jdbc+driver+to+design+studio
talks of a directory, rdw which does not exist
Any form of assistance will be greatly appreciated.
You have to configure the datasource by adding a Relational Process Action to your .xaction in the Pentaho Design Studio wherein you can specify the JDBC Driver, Username, Password and the Database URL. But first you have to put your MySQL JAR file in your lib folder /path/to/biserver-ce/tomcat/lib
You will also have to save your *.xaction file/s in the pentaho-solutions folder /path/to/biserver-ce/pentaho-solutions in order for your *.xaction files to connect to the database which you have assigned in your Relational Process Action.
I encountered the same problem and solved as follow
place mysql-connector-java-5.1.17.jar under (bi server path)\tomcat\lib\ folder
start Pentaho Admin Console (PAC) http://127.0.0.1:8099 with
user: admin
password: password
and add a connection there
use the name of the connection just created for action sequence as JNDI
The problem solved for me.

Enabling Oracle jdbc driver logs on Websphere 6.1

I am having some problems with an Hibernate Criteria query causing a outOfIndex error at driver level, I am pretty sure the problem is at the driver as I have being debugging and everything seems ok, but to be sure and be able to report the error I need to enable traces and I am not being able to do so.
I have added ojsbc5_g.jar as a new JDBC provider and created a new data source with it, renamed the jndi of the old one so the new debug data source uses the same and tried using -Doracle.jdbc.Trace=true -Djava.util.logging.config.file=ConfigFile.properties
at the server JVM configuration (using a absolute path for the file and a relative one).
The data source and the app works but no log appears, then I found the data source custom properties so I modified the level and the filename and now the file is there but empty.
The JVM Configuration should include:
-Doracle.jdbc.Trace=true -Djava.util.logging.config.file=/jdbc/OracleLog.properties
and the mentioned properties file should include something like:
.level=SEVERE
oracle.jdbc.level=ALL
oracle.jdbc.handlers=java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.level=INFO
java.util.logging.ConsoleHandler.formatter=java.util.logging.SimpleFormatter
You can set the logging for following targets depending on the nature of your problem:
oracle.jdbc
oracle.jdbc.driver
oracle.jdbc.pool
oracle.jdbc.rowset
oracle.jdbc.xa
oracle.sql

Out of the box approach to upload XML file to the BIRT Server for Processing

I have the BIRT Report Server configured in TOMCAT and it works fine when running reports that require an XML datasource, but that XML file has be available on the network in order for the server to find it and run. Is there an out of the box configuration in the BIRT server that will prompt the user to upload the XML file directly to the server when they try to run a given report that requires an XML data source? This would be handy for users that have the XML datasource stored locally on their C drive and not have to move them to a network server in order to be read by BIRT. Thanks in advance.

There is not an OOTB solution that does what you describe.
Without the OOTB option, the best way to handle this would be using Actuate's IDAPI. This will give you all the tools to get the file uploaded and added to the iServer. You can expose the IDAPI interface in any number of ways including on the BIRT report itself or on a custom parameter request page.
