Connecting to MDM Repository; what are DBServerNameAsString & DBMSType?

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

I am trying to connect to MDM repository using following code:

            
                        UserSessionContext sessionContext = new UserSessionContext("myhostname",
                        "test_rep", "English [US]", "userid");
                        sessionContext.setConnectionType(ConnectionTypes.JCA_CONNECTION);
                        String sessionId = SessionManager.getInstance().createSession(
                        sessionContext, SessionTypes.USER_SESSION_TYPE, "somepassword");
            

but I got following error when I run the application

com.sap.mdm.session.SessionException: Can not get RepositoryIdentifier for repository 'test_rep' on the server 'serverhostname' because connection problems 

Now, I tried another method to connect which is as follows:

RepositoryIdentifier repId = new RepositoryIdentifier("test_rep", DBServerNameAsString, DBMSTypeAsString);

However, I am not aware of what DBServerNameAsString & DBMSTypeAsString are? is DBServerNameAsString is my MDM Server Host name? And what about the other parameter?

Please help!

Hello Ameya

1) Are your sure that connection from your system is working fine?

2) Is your system ip adress present in allow.ip file?

3) Are your repository started?

1) How to check the connection from my system is working fine? I have some WebDynpro Configurator iViews and they are workign fine with the MDM destinations I have provided. This means connection is working fine right?

2) I am not aware of what is allow.ip?

3) Yes, repository is started

Thank you very much for the reply looking forward to more inputs.
