Database Custom Field plugin DB configuration Context.xml creation

[Ubisoft]

Installed the plugin on jira 5.1.8

in my Jira Home directory the \conf directory wasn't existing (normal?)

I created it and then created a file context.xml in it.

File content :

<Resource name="testDB"
      auth="Container" type="javax.sql.DataSource"
      username="****"
      password="****"
      driverClassName="net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver"
      url="jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://MSR-UAT-DB01"
 />

I'm getting :

[commons.jira.kconfig.PluginConfiguration] Database JNDI >>testDB<< is not defined

in my catalina logs.

So I understand the conf/context.xml should go somewhere else I did not understood.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OK the file was somewhere else on my installation. I don't know why. Anyway File found, edited, restarted jira. All works. Thanks

I too face the same problem. i created a conf folder and added conext.xml and created a lib folder and added ojdbc14.jar. Still i am getting the error [commons.jira.kconfig.PluginConfiguration] Database JNDI >>testDB<< is not defined

You do not have to create the conf folder and the context.xml file. They should already be present in the Jira installation directory, as I mentioned above.

The conf directory should already exist in your Jira installation folder, next to atlassian-jira and bin folders.
