1. Get the latest MySQL JDBC Connector/J driver from www.mysql.com - 3.0.11 works well. Place the JAR driver file in your jboss/server/default/lib directory.
2. Create a file called mysql-ds.xml (or anything-ds.xml) with the following contents, and drop it in the deploy directory: | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> | <datasources> | <local-tx-datasource> | <jndi-name>MysqlDS</jndi-name> | <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost/test</connection-url> | <driver-class>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driver-class> | <user-name>yourusername</user-name> | <password>yourpassword</password> | </local-tx-datasource> | </datasources> | Of course, replace 'yourusername' and 'yourpassword' with a username and password that can access the database. As for getting an app to talk to the DB, I recommend the jboss workbook that goes with o'reilly's EJB book, see http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/entjbeans3/workbooks/ View the original post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=3829943#3829943 Reply to the post : http://www.jboss.org/index.html?module=bb&op=posting&mode=reply&p=3829943 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: IBM Linux Tutorials Free Linux tutorial presented by Daniel Robbins, President and CEO of GenToo technologies.
