Martin,

Is this a local connection to the database, or is this from another system, 
as I don't think that local connections need a userid or password, 
they can use the current user profile to connect? 

Eg

                Connection con = null;

                CallableStatement cst = null;

                try
                {

                        log();

                        System.out.println(
                                "*** Running on JDK: " +
System.getProperty("java.version"));

                        // Declare JDBC driver name. 


                        Class.forName("com.ibm.db2.jdbc.app.DB2Driver");

                        // Create a JDBC connection object. 

                        Properties properties = new Properties();

                        properties.put("errors", "full");

                        properties.put("trace", "true");

                        properties.put("naming", "system");

                        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:db2:*local",
properties);
                        // toolbox equiv
"jdbc:as400://naming=system;trace=true;");

                        cst = null;

                        String sql_str = "call XX0080(?)";

                        cst = con.prepareCall(sql_str);

                        cst.setString(1, "X");

                        // Call the stored procedure. 

                        cst.execute();

                        // Read the output parameters into local variables. 

                        System.out.println("call successful");

cheers

Subject: Connecting to the iSeries DB using a user with no password


Hi all.

Our application has to integrate with another application which submits our
server job as a batch job.  Now the other application runs its batch jobs
under a paranoid level of security, in that the user profile it runs batch
jobs under has its password set to *NONE (I think it is also disabled, which
to my mind ought to mean that it shouldn't run the batch job, but that's
another story).

So our app has to run under that user.  Now I've modified our data queue
access so that such a user works, based on Dave Wall's post from the
archive: http://archive.midrange.com/java400-l/200204/msg00024.html.
Basically you call the AS400 constructor with no parameters, and then you
_don't_ call system.connectService(AS400.DATAQUEUE).  So our data queue
connections now work.

But I also have to make _database_ connections work.  So in short, is there
any way to make a database connection (using either toolbox or native
driver) using a user profile with password *NONE?

Cheers,

Martin.
