RE: Problems encountered when moving database...

2009-01-29T07:47:28Z

I have just solved the problem in my case.
Liferay looks for table like "Release_" in mysql. But there is no such table in mysql linux. Instead there is "release_" . Since linux is a case sensitive OS so it's return false when comparing with "Release_" with "release_" .

To solve this make linux mysql incasesensetive.
To do so u may follow the steps from
http://cosminswiki.com/index.php/MySQL_case_insensitive_table_and_column_names

Something looks fishy here

you say Liferay 4.2.1

your runup says 4.3.6, and there is an alfresco startup mixed in there.

runup the older version connected to the old db and check the startup log. Is it 4.2.1 or 4.3.6 ????

post the old startup log also

Can you give the full log of the first runup of liferay

Can you give the full log of the first runup of liferay

Scott Murray:

Here are the steps I take to move the database...

1. Shut down Tomcat/Liferay.
2. Modify D:\apps\liferay-portal-tomcat\conf\Catalina\localhost\ROOT.xml and change localhost to the IP address of the new linux database server.
3. On the Liferay Server, from a command prompt, run mysqldump on the lportal database. Now transfer this file to some location on the new db server.
4. On the new db server, run the command mysql. From the mysql> prompt, run source filename.sql.
5. After it’s finished, create a new user and assign it a password (use the ones from the files in steps 2 above). Give this user all permissions.
6. Start Tomcat/Liferay and test.

document all the steps you took and post here, otherwise we would be just guessing.

Scott Murray:

Hello,

I am attempting to move the mysql database for my Liferay 4.2.1 install from a Windows 2003 Server to a linux based mysql server. I have tried a couple different methods of moving the database (mysql dump and import; zipping and moving the mysql raw data and schema), but each time I enounter the same problem. The problem is that the first time I attempt to start Liferay/tomcat after moving the database (and pointing to it in ROOT.xml), I see the following:

12:53:40,109 WARN [ReleaseLocalServiceImpl:84] Table 'lportal.Release_' doesn't exist
12:53:40,109 INFO [ReleaseLocalServiceImpl:97] Create tables and populate with default data
12:53:53,359 INFO [StartupAction:206] Running verification com.liferay.portal.verify.VerifyProcessS
uite

It will continue after this, but nothing is the same after it finishes starting (ie. the logon screen looks different and I am unable to login with a valid account). Anybody have any idea what I am doing wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

Scott
