Corda database connection with SQL Server 17 failed - corda

Question

Facing this error when trying to connect Corda v3.3 to SQL server 2017.
Could not find method dataSourceProperties() for arguments [build_b58g7zpxmgi2o4qynsvg23rrl$_run_closure7$_closure18$_closure22#6e5d745d] on object of type
net.corda.plugins.Node.
deployNodes code snippet is
dataSourceProperties {
dataSourceClassName ("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDataSource")
dataSource.url ("jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=testdb")
dataSource.user (testuser)
dataSource.password (123)
}
database {
transactionIsolationLevel (READ_COMMITTED)
}
jarDirs = [".../Microsoft JDBC Driver 6.2 for SQL Server/sqljdbc_6.2/enu/"]

Answer 1

You are confusing the syntax of deployNodes with the syntax of the node.conf node configuration file.
If you want to add additional configuration options in deployNodes that will be copied to the node's node.conf file, you need to use extraConfig, as follows:
task deployNodes(type: net.corda.plugins.Cordform, dependsOn: ['jar']) {
directory "./build/nodes"
node {
name "O=PartyA,L=London,C=GB"
p2pPort 10007
rpcSettings {
address("localhost:10008")
adminAddress("localhost:10048")
}
cordapps = ["$corda_release_group:corda-finance:$corda_release_version"]
rpcUsers = [[user: "user1", "password": "test", "permissions": ["ALL"]]]
extraConfig = [
dataSourceProperties: [
dataSourceClassName: 'com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDataSource',
dataSource : [
url : 'jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=testdb',
user : 'testuser',
password: '123'
]
],
database : [transactionIsolationLevel: 'READ_COMMITTED'],
jarDirs : ['.../Microsoft JDBC Driver 6.2 for SQL Server/sqljdbc_6.2/enu/']
]
}
}
