I need to config my BI Repository to use External Database (Oracle)
Following this config…

webMethods Repository properties file

---------------------------

mode=shareoutproc
persiststore=jdbc

----------------------------

path=WmRepository
dbsize=100
avgblksz=250

logfile=logs/repolog

------------------------------

server=server1
cluster=server1
server1.hostname=wme-srv-mssql
server1.port=7777

but, when I launch “runreposerver.bat”, I have the following error :

C:\webmethods5\RepoV3>jre\bin\java -cp .\biapp.jar com.wm.app.repov3.remote.RepositoryServer
Repository Server init failed, Exception: get Repository remote object failed, com.wm.app.repov3.Rep
ositoryException:registerWithCluster exception: com.wm.app.repov3.RepositoryException:oracle.jdbc.dr
iver.OracleDriver

…
Thank you for your help in advance.

I had this error, too. change the port from 7777 to some else. Check used ports with “netstat -a”.
At my system, port 7777 was used by another application.
