The instructions you followed are for changing the persistence manager (PM) on a new magnolia install (no existing content). When changing the PM on an existing magnolia install, I'd recommend this:

1. Backup the existing repositories and store the resulting xml files in their proper place in the WEB-INF/config/bootstrap folder
2. Stop magnolia
3. Make the persistence manager changes (follow instructions on the wiki page for this) 4. Clear everything in the repositories directory /*IMPORTANT*/ -- this eliminates a lot of headaches. 5. Start magnolia and let it bootstrap a whole new repository with the new PM.

Thanks for the suggestion Robin. I haven't looked at them all yet, but I don't think the workspace.xml files are the problem. In this case I'm trying to get the out of the box magnolia wars modified to use mysql. So I am able to delete the entire repositories/magnolia directory for both apps [I'm going to work on migrating config and content next].
I followed the instructions from the following page for configuring the MySQL 
connection:

 http://www.magnolia.info/wiki/Wiki.jsp?page=DataSourcePersistenceManager

To make matters more frustrating I discovered that my magnoliaPublic instance works, but magnoliaAuthor is still getting these PathNotFoundException's.
I tried stopping tomcat deleting the repositories/magnolia folder again for 
magnoliaAuthor, and now secureURIList doesn't throw the exception, but both of 
the others do.  :/  I'm going to keep playing with it, but any more suggestions 
are appreciated.

Thanks, Nathan

Hi Nathan,

Changing the persistence layer with Jackrabbit has one
tricky point you have to keep in mind. the
workspace.xml files (located  in the workspaces,
magnolia has gor about ten i think) don't change
correctly. you have to do this by your own. check
theses files (for all workspaces) for the right
settings.

Howdy folks

I'm rebuilding a Magnolia 3.0.2 server trying to
switch to MySQL for persistence.  I've overcome a
few class loader problems, but now I'm getting
PathNotFoundException for secureURIList, IPConfig,
and MIMEMapping.

But since the files appear to be where the are
supposed to be I'm not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Nathan
