MRE login problems

Hi, we are having problems logging into MRE and I was wondering if anyone else had any similar experiences or may know what is wrong.

We are using MySQL as our database for MRE users and supposedly it goes inactive after 8 hours of inactivity. So everything I come in in the morning to test MRE/dashboard it takes 3 unsuccessful login attempts before it actually lets me log in successfully. I tried changing the JDBC driver URL to include autoReconnect=true (according to MySQLs documentation) at the end but then it wont let me login at all.

I submitted a case with IBI already but they have not come up with a solution yet besides migrating to SQL server which really is not an option.

Any help would be great, thanks!

Eric

Shot in the dark here, but what about using JNDI. That way your app server will be in control of the URL and the authReconnect=true option.

I'm not really sure ... I would suggest calling help desk to get thier input.

I've used JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) for setting up abstract connections for custom security options under web focus. The initial setup for any JNDI connection is done at the app server level for the specific application context (ibi_apps in this case). The idea is that the application server is in control of the connection, and the application can request the resource via a logical JNDI name. For me this is important, because I can build and test with any JDBC complient database, and deploy under any other JDBC complient database without having to recompile my java code.

JNDI is a java standard way of controlling access to LDAP, JDBC etc, so I would be supprised if IBI has not been asked support this in one form or another.

But, as I stated in the first message, this is a shot in the dark!
