Any clues, anyone? I guess I can find the definitions for this in the jdbc class somewhere.
- Again, thanks a bunch for the help...Jeremy

The schema name it's asking for isnt the schema name that you're generating,
it's a jdbc thing. I believe it's really the name of the user who created
the tables, so different users could have different tables with the same
name.
Not sure what the setting is for other databases, but for SQL server it
always seems to be "dbo", regardless of who I log in as. "catalog" on the
other hand, seems to map to the name of the database.

Florian,
Thanks for the info, extremely helpful. One more thing that maybe you could explain a little, now with the CVS version it is asking me for catalogue regular expression, followed by schema regular expression. I grok that the catalogue regular expression it is looking for is the database name, but the schema regular expression escapes me as no schema is generated yet (that's what this tool does, right? generate schema from existing data?) so it comes up with an empty schema when I specify something like a table name or (.*?). Is there anything else I need to tell it about the schema somewhere?
Thanks,
Jeremy

Hi Jeremy, reverse-db2 is not usable yet, this is work in progress and it just does reverse engineering of the database, but even this is incomplete and generating repository.xml is not working.Concerning your problem with reverse-db, this is a known issue with MySQL. This has been fixed in CVS, so either you can fetch the current sourcefromCVS or wait for the next release of OJB, where these changes should be included. Reversedb is completely independent of other OJB settings, there is no need to set any properties or profiles, you just do a plain connecttothe database and read the schema, then you can create java stubs and repository.xml from it. The reason you are seeing garbage in the reversedb tree is simply because it is not initialised on startup. The treemodelgetsreplaced once you hit the "Read Schema" button. This is nothing to worry about. HTH, Florian-----Ursprungliche Nachricht----- Von: Jeremy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Gesendet: Freitag, 07. Februar 2003 18:52 An: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Betreff: reverse-db (reverse-db2) Hello, I have been banging my head against how to map out a pre-existing database. I changed the mysql.profile to my mysql db, and changed the build.properties to use the mysql db. Really, this should be superfluous, shouldn't it? I mean, given what documentation on the subject of the reverse-db component, I thought that connecting to a database was all that was necessary (using mysql:jdbc), as it would then read in the database tables and values, then create a schema or map of the database. When I connect to the database, I get no message as to whether it connects or not (using the tests, though, I am able to create the tables for them in the mysql db, and I see traffic, so I believe it is actually connecting), and when I try 'read', I get: [reversedb] java.sql.SQLException: null: Can't read dir of './%/' (Errcode: 2) [reversedb] at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.nextRow(Unknown Source) [reversedb] at com.mysql.jdbc.MysqlIO.getResultSet(Unknown Source) [reversedb] 12:null: Can't read dir of './%/' (Errcode: 2) Also, why am I seeing in the reverse-db browse window part of the test suite? I mean, before I connect to the db, is it reading in the repository.xml? Do I need to create my own repository.xml or build.xml/build.properties to define a blank db template or something for the reverse-db component to fill in? As an after note, reverse-db2 seems to connect to my database, but using the open database like this -->jdbc:mysql://localhost/testdb shows me all the databases present, not just testdb, with unknown schema (schema not specifies) and new ojb repository gives me that it can't find it's OJB.properties file (uses default settings) and it can't find it's repository.xml. So what do I put in this repository.xml, I mean, it isn't creating a new db, I was hoping it would map a pre-existing one.
