[jboss-jira] [JBoss JIRA] (AS7-4590) Expansion of variables in datasource configuration <driver> in standalone.xml

Expansion of variables in datasource configuration <driver> in standalone.xml ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: AS7-4590 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-4590 Project: Application Server 7 Issue Type: Bug Components: JCA, Server Affects Versions: 7.1.2.Final-redhat1 Environment: Test with upstream 7.1 master (commit f82bc48f5d4a74e5214503fa0e301c507ccfea4e ~ 4/23/2012 11:30 CET+2) Reporter: Wolf-Dieter Fink Assignee: Stefano Maestri Priority: Minor Labels: configuration, datasource, driver Fix For: 7.1.2.Final-redhat1 Overwrite the datasource driver by expression did not work. If the element is <driver>${test.db.driver}</driver> the following messages are shown: ===> not given by -D 13:38:23,146 ERROR [org.jboss.as.controller.management-operation] (ServerService Thread Pool -- 27) Operation ("enable") failed - address: ([ ("subsystem" => "datasources"), ("data-source" => "ExampleDS") ]) - failure description: "JBAS014802: Cannot resolve expression 'expression \"${test.db.driver}\"' -- java.lang.IllegalStateException: Failed to resolve expression: ${test.db.driver}" ===> given by -Dtest.db.driver=h2 JBAS014775: New missing/unsatisfied dependencies: service jboss.jdbc-driver.${test_db_driver} (missing) dependents: [service jboss.data-source.java:jboss/datasources/ExampleDS] Looks that it should be possible to use the expression (as for the other attributes like url/user/passwd) but the dependency is checked before replacing the environment. The dependency and deployment should work. If it is not possible to use it for the driver the expression should be defeated with an approproate message.
