I have used the following versions for this topic:
1. Operating system: Windows7 64 bit
2. MySQL: mysql-5.5.23-winx64 (zip) - the topic is still valid for 32 bit version
3. MySQL JDBC driver: mysql-connector-java-5.1.14-bin.jar - to be placed in <ofbiz-dir>/framework/entity/lib/jdbc
4. OfBiz: apache-ofbiz-10.04
Step - I
C:\mysql-5.5.23-winx64\bin>mysql -u root
mysql>create database ofbiz;
mysql>create database ofbizolap;
mysql>create database ofbiztenant;
mysql>use mysql;
mysql>select database();
mysql>create user ofbiz@localhost;
mysql>create user ofbizolap@localhost;
mysql>create user ofbiztenant@localhost;
mysql>update user set password=PASSWORD("ofbiz") where User='ofbiz';
mysql>update user set password=PASSWORD("ofbizolap") where User='ofbizolap';
mysql>update user set password=PASSWORD("ofbiztenant") where User='ofbiztenant';
mysql>grant all privileges on *.* to 'ofbiz'@localhost identified by 'ofbiz';
mysql>grant all privileges on *.* to 'ofbizolap'@localhost identified by 'ofbizolap';
mysql>grant all privileges on *.* to 'ofbiztenant'@localhost identified by 'ofbiztenant';
Step - II
Use webtools to export all data to XML:
a. Start OfBiz
b. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/catalog/
c. Go to Applications>WebTools
d. Go to section 'Entity XML Tools' and click the link 'XML Data Export All' - export the data to a directory of your choice
Step - III
1. Stop OfBiz server
2. Create a backup of <ofbiz-dir>/framework/entity/config/entityengine.xml
3. Edit entityengine.xml as follows:
a. Add the following datasources below the datasource 'localmysql'
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<datasource name="localmysqlolap" helper-class="org.ofbiz.entity.datasource.GenericHelperDAO" field-type-name="mysql" check-on-start="true" add-missing-on-start="true" check-pks-on-start="false" use-foreign-keys="true" join-style="ansi-no-parenthesis" alias-view-columns="false" drop-fk-use-foreign-key-keyword="true" table-type="InnoDB" character-set="latin1" collate="latin1_general_cs"> <read-data reader-name="seed"/> <read-data reader-name="seed-initial"/> <read-data reader-name="demo"/> <read-data reader-name="ext"/> <inline-jdbc jdbc-driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" jdbc-uri="jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/ofbiz?autoReconnect=true" jdbc-username="ofbizolap" jdbc-password="ofbizolap" isolation-level="ReadCommitted" pool-minsize="2" pool-maxsize="250" time-between-eviction-runs-millis="600000"/> </datasource> <datasource name="localmysqltenant" helper-class="org.ofbiz.entity.datasource.GenericHelperDAO" field-type-name="mysql" check-on-start="true" add-missing-on-start="true" check-pks-on-start="false" use-foreign-keys="true" join-style="ansi-no-parenthesis" alias-view-columns="false" drop-fk-use-foreign-key-keyword="true" table-type="InnoDB" character-set="latin1" collate="latin1_general_cs"> <read-data reader-name="seed"/> <read-data reader-name="seed-initial"/> <read-data reader-name="demo"/> <read-data reader-name="ext"/> <inline-jdbc jdbc-driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" jdbc-uri="jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1/ofbiz?autoReconnect=true" jdbc-username="ofbiztenant" jdbc-password="ofbiztenant" isolation-level="ReadCommitted" pool-minsize="2" pool-maxsize="250" time-between-eviction-runs-millis="600000"/> </datasource> |
b. Replace derby with mysql in default, default-no-eca and test delegators as follows:
Code Block | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
<delegator name="default" entity-model-reader="main" entity-group-reader="main" entity-eca-reader="main" distributed-cache-clear-enabled="false"> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localmysql"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap" datasource-name="localmysqlolap"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.tenant" datasource-name="localmysqltenant"/> </delegator> <delegator name="default-no-eca" entity-model-reader="main" entity-group-reader="main" entity-eca-reader="main" entity-eca-enabled="false" distributed-cache-clear-enabled="false"> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localmysql"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap" datasource-name="localmysqlolap"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.tenant" datasource-name="localmysqltenant"/> </delegator> <delegator name="test" entity-model-reader="main" entity-group-reader="main" entity-eca-reader="main"> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz" datasource-name="localmysql"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap" datasource-name="localmysqlolap"/> <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.tenant" datasource-name="localmysqltenant"/> </delegator> |
c. Save this file
Step -IV
1. Open ofbiz/framework/entity/src/org/ofbiz/entity/jdbc/DatabaseUtil.java in eclipse and replace sqlBuf.append(" TYPE ") with sqlBuf.append(" ENGINE ")
2. Save the file and run ofbiz/build.xml
Note: This is required because TYPE was deprecated in MySQL 4.0 and removed in MySQL 5.5. The older TYPE option was synonymous with the new option ENGINE
Step -V
1. Run the following command from command prompt:
ofbiz-dir>java -jar ofbiz.jar -install
2. Start OfBiz
3. Use webtools to import all data from XML:
a. Navigate to http://localhost:8080/catalog/
b. Go to Applications>WebTools
c. Go to section 'Entity XML Tools' and click the link 'XML Data Import Dir' -> In the 'Absolute directory path:' enter the full path of the directory where you exported the data in Step - II
