VICTOR MANUEL ROMERO RODRIGUEZ commented on FINERACT-982: --------------------------------------------------------- Hellow, Could you please check at [https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/1798] The Drizzle Driver has been changed to MariaDB and the charset and collation also has been replaced to utf8mb4 and utf8_unicode_ci > Completely ditch use of Drizzle JDBC Driver after all > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: FINERACT-982 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FINERACT-982 > Project: Apache Fineract > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Michael Vorburger > Priority: Blocker > Labels: scalability > Fix For: 1.6.0 > > > Fineract's use of the un-maintained Drizzle JDBC driver continues to cause > confusion and pains like FINERACT-980, and note e.g. the proposed removal of > the alternative MySQL JDBC driver in > [https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/887.] > Some of the background to this is recorded e.g. in FINCN-26, FINERACT-761 and > LEGAL-462. > LEGAL-462 has clarified that the Fineract ZIP distribution must include > Drizzle and cannot distribute the MariaDB or MySQL JDBC clients. We CAN, and > currently (given the confusion in FINERACT-980 apparently do?!) use it for > tests. > What if to reduce variability we just removed that old Drizzle JDBC driver > after all? We could run our tests using (preferably) the very well maintained > MariaDB JDBC driver client (the actual DB server is a totally separate > discussion, see FINERACT-896). We would (have to) distribute the ZIP for > download without a JDBC driver, and just some documentation inviting users to > DL and add one. > But the exact situation about distributing in a Docker container image isn't > clear, to me... > FYI [~awasum], [~ptuomola], [~xurror] -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
