Hi Hisyam,

There is not a great deal of information here.

What host is the tomcat that you are trying to install QXtend running on ? From the parameters that you have inlcuded here the installer is looking for an instance of tomcat that is running on the local host, try entering the IP address or hostname of the machine where tomcat is running.

When you install QXtend is stores the configuration parameters on tomcat so when it is asking for the host & port this needs to point to a running instance of tomcat.

hmm.. perhaps i should read more.
anyway, is it possible to install qxtend for standard edition of QAD? and is there another way to access QAD database from external application?

Hi Hisyam, Yes is is possible to install QXtend with QAD SE, it is designed to work with eB, eB2.1, SE and EE.

When you talk about accessing the QAD database, the answer to your question is that it depends. It depends on what you want to do, process transactions in QAD then no QXtend is the recommended and supported approach to that via web services. If you purely want to query data then you can use ODBC or JDBC to access the data.

I would persist with the QXtend installation, read the installation guide carefully and if you still have problems getting it installed get access to an experienced consultant, they should be able to get QXtend up and running for you in a day or two.

Hi Richard, thank you for the information.
about direct access (query) to QAD database, how can I get the database information such as DB Server name, DB Server port from QAD application. I already explore the data administration in QAD desktop, and I only find the Database name (physical and logical name). I already asked my colleague who installed the QAD, he said he never set those DB parameters during installing QAD. because as we know that we need to provide them when creating Connection Program. eg: String URL = "jdbc:datadirect:openedge://<servername>:<port>:<DatabaseName>";

Hisyam.
