Products

• Clarity PPM On Premise

Issue/Introduction

Clarity runs on Oracle 19c, however there are processes that connect to external SQL Server database 2016/2019 which started failing after the upgrade to 16.0.3.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1.On Clarity server running Oracle

2.Create a process with GEL Script

<gel:script
 xmlns:gel="jelly:com.niku.union.gel.GELTagLibrary"
 xmlns:ftp="jelly:com.niku.union.gel.FTPTagLibrary"
 xmlns:file="jelly:com.niku.union.gel.FileTagLibrary"
 xmlns:core="jelly:core"
 xmlns:sql="jelly:sql">

<sql:setDataSource var="omega" url="jdbc:sqlserver://host:1433;DatabaseName=clarity;" driver="com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver" user="pwd" password="pwd"/>

<sql:query dataSource="${omega}" escapeText="0" var="results2">

SELECT id from FROM SRM_RESOURCES where is_active = 1
</sql:query>

</gel:script>

3.Activate and run the process:

Expected: The process should finish.

Actual: The process errors:

BPM-0704: An error occurred while executing custom script: org.apache.commons.jelly.JellyTagException: null:6:83: <sql:query> Unable to get connection, DataSource invalid: "No suitable driver found for jdbc:sqlserver://<host>:1433;DatabaseName=clarity;" at org.apache.commons.jelly.tags.sql.SqlTagSupport.getConnection(SqlTagSupport.java:156) at com.niku.union.gel.tags.sql.QueryTag.getConnection(QueryTag.java:57) at org.apache.commons.jelly.tags.sql.QueryTag.doTag(QueryTag.java:134) at org.apache.commons.jelly.impl.TagScript.run(TagScript.java:248) at org.apache.commons.jelly.impl.ScriptBlock.run(ScriptBlock.java:96) at org.apache.commons.jelly.TagSupport.invokeBody(TagSupport.java:187) at com.niku.union.gel.tags.ScriptTag.doTag(ScriptTag.java:20) at org.apache.commons.jelly.impl.TagScript.run(TagScript.java:248) at com.niku.union.gel.GELScript.run(GELScript.java:58) at com.niku.union.gel.GELController.invoke(GELController.java:79) at com.niku.bpm.services.ExecuteCustomAction.run(ExecuteCustomAction.java:217) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1128) at java.base/java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:628) at java.base/java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:829)
