Problem |
In WebSphere Application Server 4.0.x, the administrative
console may be launched from a remote machine (other than the one on which
the admin server is installed). It is not necessary to perform a full
WebSphere installation on the remote machine; only the admin console,
developer tools, and JDK must be installed from the installation CD.
However, if this is done, the properties of data sources are not shown
correctly.
When creating a new data source from the remote console, no custom
properties appear. However, a new custom property can be added. For a data
source that already exists, the red asterisk that should appear next to
required custom properties does not appear. |

Solution |
To solve this problem, the cm.jar file must be copied from
the WebSphere/AppServer/lib directory of the WebSphere server to the
WebSphere/AppServer/lib directory of the remote console machine. After
doing this, the data source properties will be shown correctly. |
