从Weblogic部署Plan.xml编辑Persistence.xml jta-data-source

Question

My application is using Spring MVC 4.0.5 with Toplink Essentials JPA 2.1-60 and is deployed to a Weblogic 10.3.6.0 server.

I'm trying to deploy 2 instances of my application in order to create a development as well as testing deployments. Both of these will use the same .war file. The two instances will have different context-roots as well as connect to different data sources.

This will be defined in a weblogic deployment plan.

I'm able to change the context-root without any issue. The problem is trying to change the data source.

When I run on server directly from Eclipse, the data source is defined within weblogic.xml. But when I build the .war file and manually deploy the application, the data source is only defined within persistence.xml. In other words, I can change weblogic.xml all I want and it doesn't affect the which data source it connects to. I have to change it in persistence.xml for it to connect to the other data source.

Either I can't edit persistence.xml from my deployment plan (plan.xml) or my plan.xml is just wrong.

Is there a way to force the persistence.xml to refer to the weblogic.xml data source instead of the hard coded one? Since I know I can edit weblogic.xml using the deployment plan. If not, is there a way to edit the persistence.xml data source directly from the deployment plan (change from jdbc/PQRS to jdbs/PQRSTest)?

I'm not sure which files are needed to help, so I'm going to include all of them.

Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

if you use java:comp/env/jdbc/myds style of jndi name in persistence.xml you ll have to define binding in weblogic*xml

then those, you could change it using deployment plan

(havent tried it yet myself)
