found it. In build.properties it lists the jdbc drivers. So, first off the name of my driver was wrong, yet still I had no luck.

Amazingly, in build.user.properties i overwrote the jdbc driverse list with:

jdbc.drivers=mysql.jar

and pachow, works like a charm.

Hey John, thanks for that. I remember running into that problem a long time ago, but ya it is encoded:

url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/lportal?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"

Hello Ed F.

one quick check. Is the & you used in the mysql connection string in HTML entity style like &ampamp;
I tried to use the normal ampersand and it also gave me dialect errors. Maybe this is also your case.

Hope this helps.

Grtz. John

Hey James, I'm pretty sure I did.

I created lportal database and ran the create-mysql.sql script, it has all the tables that are supposed to be there (account, address, blogs, etc.).

I can connect and browse around the database, so it's definitely running, as well as installed as a service.

If there's anything after the create script, I didn't do that.

There's not too much that can be involved, i wonder if it's a conflict between java and the driver or ... something.

I'm using jdk 1.5.0_12 with jdbc: mysql-connector-java-5.0.7-bin.jar, which is the only java version 5 connector there is.

Error starting dialect....I'm stumped.

Ed -
Looks like you set it up right. Did you remember to initialize the mysql database?

Hey guys, I'm having trouble with getting 4.3.1 to work with mysql.

In ROOT.xml if I swap back to hypersonic, liferay starts up perfectly.

When I swap over to mysql, it gives all kinds of errors.
I am using Java 5.0 though, Tomcat 6, Mysql 5.0.

I have the mysql jdbc connector in tomcat/common/lib/ext under the name: mysql-connector-java-5.0.7-bin.jar

ROOT.xml:

<Resource
name="jdbc/LiferayPool"
auth="Container"
type="javax.sql.DataSource"
driverClassName="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"
url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/lportal?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8"
username="root"
password="pw"
maxActive="20"
/>

Here is the first error:
SEVERE: StandardWrapper.Throwable

etc, etc.

As far as I know, you need to just edit ROOT.xml and drop in the mysql jdbc driver, but everything is breaking for me. Anyone got any ideas?

Thanks!

Thanks James!

Got it working. I am going to post a detailed write up on how to do it.

Chris Schultz:

Clean install has my liferay 4.3 + tomcat 6 + jdk6 working correctly.

Now, how do I use mySQL 5 database?

The setup should be similar to your previous Liferay versions:

1) modify tomcat-dir/conf/Catalina/localhost/ROOT.xml and add the mysql configuration. Dont forget to remove the hsql config.
2) put the mysql connector jar in tomcat-dir/lib/ext

That should be it.

James Hong:

Just for future reference the best way to check if the environment is setup is by running 'catalina.sh version' it will print out a number of environment variables including the app versions that you are using.

Thanks for that info btw! I am a total linux noob.

My environmental variables seem to be showing up ok.

echo $JAVA_HOME

shows the correct location of my jdk directory.... Going to try a clean install and see what happens.

FYI the 1st exception you are seeing 'java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.catalina.startup.Catalina' is from bootstrap.jar which resides in the Tomcat /bin directory - which is why I think either the jar was hosed or some environment variable is off (e.g. CATALINA_HOME).

Your right. It's not an mysql problem.

I can't even get the Liferay 4.3, Tomcat 6 with HSQL working any longer. I used to have it working. UGGGGGGG!!!!!

Could you give me a link to the JDK6 that you are using?

Thank you so much for your help James. Help is rather slow coming on this community forum.

My guess is you hosed your Tomcat/Liferay installation somehow or maybe the environment variables do not get setup properly. How do you start Tomcat up? You could just download/install the Liferay package again.

I downloaded JDK6 from here: http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp

I choose the first option 'JDK 6 Update 2'

I am using Liferay 4.3, JDK6, Tomcat 6 with HSQL for testing and it works fine for me.

bash-2.05$ ./catalina.sh version

I havent tried using it with Mysql but I dont suspect that is the problem you are running into.
