Using Windows Authentication for Microsoft SQL Server

Steps:-

1. We will need to first obtain the "mssql-jdbc_auth-9.4.0.x64.dll" file needed for integrated authentication.
   Since Joget DX 7.0.24, MSSQL JDBC driver version 9.4.0.jre8 is shipped by default, therefore it is advisable to use the dll file of the same version.
   Download from the direct link https://github.com/microsoft/mssql-jdbc/releases/download/v9.4.0/mssql-jdbc_auth.zip
2. Unzip, and find "x64\mssql-jdbc_auth-9.4.0.x64.dll". Place it into a location accessible by Joget, i.e. "C:\Joget-DX8-Enterprise\wflow\library"

3. Edit "joget-start.bat" and append "-Djava.library.path=./wflow/library" into JAVA_OPTS.

   Your joget-start.bat may look like this now. (Line 12)
   Please take note that line "-javaagent:./wflow/glowroot/glowroot.jar" must be placed at the end too.

   joget-start.bat

   @ECHO OFF
   
   REM Start MariaDB
   ECHO == Starting MariaDB ==
   ECHO.
   CALL .\mariadb-start.bat
   ECHO.
   
   REM Start Tomcat
   set JAVA_HOME=.\jre11.0.2
   set CATALINA_HOME=.\apache-tomcat-8.5.65
   set JAVA_OPTS=-Xmx768M -Dwflow.home=./wflow/ -javaagent:./wflow/aspectjweaver-1.8.5.jar -Djava.library.path=./wflow/library -javaagent:./wflow/glowroot/glowroot.jar
   REM set JAVA_OPTS=-XX:MaxPermSize=128m -Xmx1024M -Xdebug -Xnoagent -Djava.compiler=NONE -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,suspend=n,server=y,address=5115 -Dwflow.home=./wflow/ -javaagent:./wflow/aspectjweaver-1.8.5.jar -javaagent:./wflow/glowroot/glowroot.jar
   ECHO == Starting Tomcat from %CATALINA_HOME% ==
   ECHO.
   %CATALINA_HOME%\bin\catalina.bat run

   Note: If your Joget server runs as Windows service, then you will need to launch tomcat8w.exe to configure JAVA_OPTS variable accordingly.

4. Initialize your mssql database instance with Joget's base tables.
   Navigate and import the file in the specified directory below into your database, using your database client of choice: 

   <Your Joget folder>\apache-tomcat-<version number>\webapps\jw\WEB-INF\classes\setup\sql\jwdb-mssql.sql

5. Create a new datasource profile file inside the "wflow" folder.
   Here's sample content.

   app_datasource-mssql.properties

   workflowDriver=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
   workflowUrl=jdbc\:sqlserver\://localhost\:1433;SelectMethod\=direct;DatabaseName\=jwdb;integratedSecurity\=true
   workflowPassword=
   workflowUser=sa

   Note: The value in "workflowUser" is not being used but it is a required field. Simply key in any value here.
6. Change your datasource to point to your new profile. 
   inside the same folder, open "app_datasource.properties" and edit the line "currentProfile=default" to "currentProfile=mssql" or "currentProfile=<name>" where <name> is the name you used for your newly created datasource profile above.
   
   
7. Start Joget server and test.
