Re: How to use mySQL DB as Datasource?

[Chris Callaghan]

Download the JDBC driver from http://mmmysql.sourceforge.net/ and put 
that into your orion/lib directory, then edit 
orion/config/data-sources.xml to add in the data-source.

Docs on the data-sources.xml can be found here: 
http://www.orionserver.com/docs/data-sources.xml.html

You will need to use connection-driver="org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver" and 
url="jdbc:mysql://[hostname][:port]/dbname[?param1=value1][&param2=value2]" 
.

If you want to use CMP then you'll have to setup the database-schema.xml 
(http://www.orionserver.com/docs/database-schema.xml.html) as well.

Have fun!
