Database Configuration

[kaisha...@gmail.com]

Hi,

     I am unable to configure MySQL database as shown in this link .

My local database i.e MySQl is running on the port:3306  

I populated the fields in data configuration form as shown below:

Database Type:MySQL

Username:root

Password:***

url: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/openhds

Driver: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

But I am getting the following error:

• Error executing script. Exception : com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Can anyone please tell as to where I am going wrong.

Hi,

You may need to add a jar file to your tomcat lib folder.  This will allow OpenHDS to access MySQL.  You can find the jar file from the MySQL developer site:

  http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/

Does this help?

My apologies for the delayed response. 

Did you manage to get things running in the meantime ? 

  

If not, did you following the instructions at https://github.com/SwissTPH/openhds/blob/master/doc/OpenHDS_Manual.pdf ?

If you are still having problems and you followed the instructions quite closely, then we will need to look at the content of the tomcat logs (https://wiki.apache.org/tomcat/FAQ/Logging and google search will help locate information to help debug). 

Hope this helps,
