dashDB service plan was not able to recognise with configuration files provided by IBM MobileFirst 8.0


We are trying to create IBM MobileFirst 8.0 Container for bluemix by following the MobileFirst containers tutorial in : https://mobilefirstplatform.ibmcloud.com/tutorials/en/foundation/8.0/bluemix/mobilefirst-server-using-scripts/#setting-up-the-mobilefirst-and-analytics-servers-on-ibm-containers

As per the tutorial, we have created the MobileFirst 8.0 Analytics container and created dashDB transactional service in Bluemix. Before creating MobileFirst server image we have set up the dashDb service using prepareserverdb.sh script to set the database values in server.env file, but here we are getting an error saying that the serevice dashDB does not exist in the current users origanisation/spaces.

Any suggestions or solutions on how to connect are appreciated. Thanks.


Solution

  • Try to use DB_TYPE in your prepareserverdb.properties as

    DB_TYPE=DB2 
    

    instead of DB_TYPE=dashDB
