Error "CONM7002W: Could not find the property Initialized on class ..." in releases of WebSphere Application Server v4
 Technote (FAQ)
 
Problem
During WebSphere® Application Server v4.0 startup, the following error appears in the log:

CONM7002W: Could not find the property Initialized on class
COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2ConnectionPoolDataSource"?
 
Cause
All data source properties are properly initialized with correct values. The problem generally occurs only when DB2® OS/390® is used as the WebSphere repository database.

This warning is caused by the presence of the following property in the admin.config file:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbInitialized=nocreate
 
Solution
Remove the following line from the admin.config file:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbInitialized=nocreate

This property was used for this configuration in WebSphere Application Server v3.5. However, in releases of WebSphere Application Server v4, any property of the following pattern has a different meaning:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.dbXXXXXX

where:
XXXXXX means "set the XXXXXX property on the database driver"

This is used for things such as user, password, databaseName, and other properties that must be passed on the database driver itself. This is why the warning states that the Initialized property is unsupported by the database driver.

The dbInitialized property in v3.5 has been replaced by the following property in WebSphere Application Server v4.0:

com.ibm.ejs.sm.adminServer.createTables

This property is also set in the admin.config file, and should be set to false when the repository database is DB2 OS/390.
