BusinessObjects XI 3.1 - Missing MySql Database Server?

Hi all
I've installed the BusinessObjects XI 3.1 on my desktop and during the installation process i have chosen to install the MySql database server together with it.
I'm now trying to create a database, but i can't seem to locate where the mysql database server is installed on my desktop.
Am i suppose to install something else or did i miss something out?
Thanks
jazreeel

BO XI 3.1 server should be installed on Windows Server 2003 or 2008. Windows VIsta is not offcially supported for the installation of the server software.
Regards,
Stratos
PS: Take a look at the Supported platforms documentation (http://service.sap.com/bosap-support)

Connecting to a Mysql database using a ColdFusion server

can't create a mysql datasource in CF Administrator.
If I use the following datasource settings in CF
Administrator:
JDBC URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
Drive Class: MySQL Connector J
AND (note the emphasis) I set my local and remote folders in
my DW site local folder, remote folder and testing server folders
all to C:\CFusionMX\db\, I can connect to my mysql database in CF
Administrator.
However, with these DW site folder settings, DW doesn't
recognize any databases (Access or Mysql) at all.
When I change my DW site folder settings to 'wwwroot'
(e.g.local folder C:\CFusionMX\db\' is changed to
'C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot') DW now lists all my CF Administrator
databases.
The problem is CF Administrator can't connect to my Mysql
data sources. It gives me the error:
"Connection verification failed for data source: javaserver
[]java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in JDBCPool
while attempting to connect, please check your username, password,
URL, and other connectivity info.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: SQLException
occurred in JDBCPool while attempting to connect, please check your
username, password, URL, and other connectivity info"
I've tried changing the 3306 port to 8500, but this doesn't
help.
My java path and connector file is:
C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-3.0.17-ga-bin.jar,
Is this a ID/password problem? I've tried both 'root' and
leaving the ID field in the CF Administrator add data source block,
both to no avail. I don't have a password set in Mysql for 'root'
either.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated. I've been working
on this for weeks and keep running into one problem after another.
Thanks a million in advance.
Sincerely,
Graham A. Kerby

If it were me I would use the MySQL JDBC driver and not ODBC. Then DSN versus not-DSN wouldn't be an issue.

i need ur help,we hav online site .Please don't use these juvenile abbreviations. It's impolite when you're asking for assistance not to make the effort to spell out all of the words. Moreover in a forum with an international readership the use of standard English will reduce the possibility of confusion.
I presume that your file upload is being placed in a different directory from that which you were expecting. I would suggest logging all paths (specifically filename) to see if this is an unexpected value.
Please explain further what you mean by "local" - is this a stand-alone application, or merely running a copy of the server on your local machine and doing the transfer (via the browser) to that? Are there any other differences such as the browser used?

How to connect to a MySQL database in another server

Dear friends,
I am using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.3 and I need to connect to a MySQL database located in another server.
I am trying to create a new connection, informing connection name, username and password. Supposing that "Hostname" is the IP server address, I click on "Choose database", but I always receive the following error message: "Status : Failure - Cannot connect to MySQL server".
Please tell me what I should do to solve this situation. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Franklin

You need to configure your mysql database to accept connection from your PC for the user you used.
For example,
GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'someuser'@'somehost';
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Crystal Reports 2008 Server and MySQL DataBase source for reports

Hello,
I am having an issue with crystal reports server 2008. I have created a report on my local machine with crystal reports and the datasource is a ODBC connection to a MySQL database.
The report works fine on my local. if i publish to the Crystal Reports Server, i get an error when i try and run the report.
"error Failed to open the connection. "
I have gone into the database connections for this report and put in the connection details. I have also created a ODBC connection on the server in windows to the actual database (installed both the 32bit and 64bit ODBC drivers, both Test succesfully). But when i go into crystal no matter what settings i try it will not work.
anyone have any ideas?
kthank you

I have solved the issues. This may be usefull for anyone ...
1. Make sure on the developer machine you have your ODBC connection setup under the System DNS setting in windows.
2. On the Crystal Report Server, the exact same setup must be done under System DNS, same name, etc
Once this was done, everything was fixed.

Access MySQL Database on Server with PHP Services

Hi there
There are lots of tutorials on how to connect to a MySQL database on your local machine but I'd like to access a database on my server.
When creating a new Flex Project the wizard asks me to define a Web root and a Root URL. I used '/home/ecoflexer/public_html' as Web root and 'http://ecoflexer.com' as Root URL. However, the Web root coudn't be validated. So I've chosen the local folder 'C:\ecoflexer' as Web root. Though it was possibly wrong Flash Builder generated a debug folder at the defined location. After that I went to "Connect to Data/Service" and selected "PHP Service". I tried to generate a sample using the same credentials I use for a standard PHP login script ("Server Port" was left empty). After clicking on "Connect to Database" Zend was installed and returned an error. 'gateway.php' couldn't be found on 'http://ecoflexer.com/testProject-debug/gateway.php'.
So I went into my local Web root and copied the 'testProject-debug' folder to my server to the destination the previous error mentioned. Then another error occured concerning a Zend file. So I went back and copied the whole 'ZendFramework' folder as well to my server. It connects now successfully to my database. I can chose a table but soon after that the introspection of the service fails. I modified the 'amf_config.ini' by adding 'webroot =/home/ecoflexer/public_html' and 'zend_path =/home/ecoflexer/public_html/ZendFramework/library' but it's still not working. Anithing I've done wrong or forgot to do?
Cheers!

iam doing client server application,the database is on the server,and iam doing the log in part,so i need to access the database to match the entered user name and password?so i should implement the accessing database part on the server side with the above code,right?i didn't test that i will test it now,but i thought that it's a different way

What's the default mysql database name in Crystal Report Server XIR2

Hi Experts,
I am upgrading Crystal Report Server from XIR2 to XI3.1.
I need to know the default mysql database name when upgrading.
Anyone knows?

Hi,
In XI3.1, when BOE installed with default mySQL DB then the installer creates a DataSource with name "Business Objects CMS".
And the DB name will be "BOE120".
I guess in XIR2 DB name will be ''BOE115".
Also, if you launch the CMC admin page then in the settings link the DB info will be displayed.
-Noor.

What's wrong with this MySQL connection? "Could not create connection to database server"

I'm able to connect to other MySQL databases but this one particular remote MySQL connection isn't working and I cannot figure it out. It probably has something to do with the remote server, not CF, but I thought I'd post it here if anyone had an idea. The MySQL account has full priviledges.
Here is the message when I try to validate the data source:
Connection verification failed for data source: test
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3 times. Giving up.
The root cause was that: com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3 times. Giving up.

This happened on two servers. One one, the cause was that skip-networking was turned on. In the other situation, it appears that the database name was case sensitive, so TEST was not the same as test. Even though I edited the data source in the CF administrator, it still didn't work (very misleading). When a coworker entered a new data source with the same information (uppercase database name this time from the start), it worked.
Has anyone else seen this problem with the case sensitive database names? And with the data source in CF not updating the case correctly? Seems like a bug in CF.

MySql Database set up on Snow Leopard Server for Wordpress

I am trying to set up a mySql database on the snow leopard server in order to install wordpress.
I have played around with the MySql database settings (in the server admin window) but can't seem to figure out how to set the database name, username, and password within the Snow leopard server.
Do I need to use third party software like Navicat to create the database and user names etc? If yes, any idea how to do that? If now, how do I create a MySql database, username and pw?
I have put the Wordpress install folder on my Snow leopard server. When I navigate to my domain it says I need to configure wordpress by providing my database name, username and password.
Thanks in advance.. I am struggling here.

That's set up via the [MySQL command line|http://labs.hoffmanlabs.com/node/376]. Or you can install the (free) Sequel Pro GUI package, given you're probably more comfortable in the GUI. The steps required for Mac OS X Server are the same as most any other platform, so [launch the MySQL client per the Wordpress Codex|http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress], and follow the instructions.

Migrating MySQL database to new server

I'm rebuilding a server for a client and I need to migrate the MySQL database off of the old server onto the new. I'm going from Server 10.5.4 to Server 10.5.4. I tried just taring the old database location at /var/mysql and untaring it to the new server at the same location and started the MySQL service, but it service won't start properly.
I get an error in the MySQL Admin Log file that says that the "MySQL daemon startup timed-out"
After looking at the database files, they appear to have the old server name included in their names, and there is a pid file that is specific to the server.
Is there a process for exporting/importing the MySQL databases so I can get them installed on the new server?
Thanks.

So I'll reply to my own question so the answer is documented.
I used the following command it export all the database from the old server:
mysqldump -u username -ppassword --all-databases > alldump.sql
username is the name of the admin user, usually root
password is the admin password, make sure there is no space between the -p and the password. So if the password is "twit" the option is -ptwit
And the two -- are needed in the --all-databases option
Copy the alldump.sql file to the new server and run the following command to import all the databases:
mysql -u username -ppassword < alldump.sql
Be sure to set the admin password in Server Admin and start the MySQL service before importing.
That's it.

Is it possible to install mysql-server on a Time Capsule and makes it a server mysql database?

Network to share files in time capsule 1Tb now need to install a system that uses data from mysql database.
Is it possible to install the server-msyql the time capsule to make it a server database?

The Time Capsule is not a proper computer. It has a very stripped down embedded OS running a file server that offers AFP and SMB access to the files stored on the Time Capsule. And even that is primarily to support the Time Machine backup system - the fact that you happen to be able to store other files on a Time Capsule as a result is a (not particularly great) bonus.
You cannot install a database server on a Time Capsule. In theory, you could install a database server somewhere else and use the Time Casule as the location of the data files...but you shouldn't (and you shouldn't want to do that either).

MySQL database connection: Communications link failure Last packet sent to the server was 0 ms ago.

Hello,
I am trying to connect to an external MySQL database from within a bundle.
But I keep getting this error:
Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is org.apache.commons.dbcp.SQLNestedException: Cannot create PoolableConnectionFactory (Communications link failure Last packet sent to the server was 0 ms ago.)
These are the details of my bundle:
1)          Spring bundle(using Spring DM)
2)          MySQL database is at port 7046 so my bean is as below:
<bean id="dataSource" class="org.apache.commons.dbcp.BasicDataSource">
                    <property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
                    <property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://instance13550.db.xeround.com:7046/jas" />
                    <property name="username" value="mysql" />
                    <property name="password" value="mysql" />
</bean>
My bundle connects to the mysql database from withina local felix installation. But when I put the same bundle within CQ I get the error.
Please help.
Karan

I dont know the answer, but if you google for this, some articles listed might help:
re: "Communications link failure Last packet sent to the server was"
Note: I use 're:' which is short for 'reply',
I think you will also be better off using preparedStatements. Dont forget to use preparedStatement.clearParameters() just before preparedStatements.setString() items in the loop
Also, I question why you need to test having 1000 test users all banging away at your application at once. Chances are, most will be staring at your web page and only a few will ever hit the update/insert button
within the same 100 milliseconds or so that your process takes to update.

How to get data into the mySQL database?

First some background.
I have a website that has outgrown its designed dimensions and is a huge burden to maintain. See PPBM5 Benchmark
There is a lot of maintenance work involved, so I'm investigating a PHP/MySQL approach to easen the burden and to add functionality to the site. With the current Excel based structure and over 420 entries, it is cumbersome for me to maintain, but also for users to find what they need.
A MySQL based dynamic structure is a lot easier and offers vastly more selection capabilities, like selecting only records that meet specific criteria.
Data submission is done with a form, that contains most of the relevant data, but the drawack is that people submitting their data are often not technically inclined, give wrong answers due to a lack of understanding or making typo's. The test results are attached in one or two separate .txt files, but often they have not read the instructions correctly or did something wrong, so these attached .txt files can not be trusted automatically, they have to be checked before inclusion.
These were my initial thoughts:
1. Data collection:
To avoid spending all our energy and time on correcting typo's, getting missing data, correcting errors, I am investigating the use of CPU-Z in Ghost mode to create a .txt or .html file that contains all relevant hardware info we need and even more. It gives all the info we currently have, but adds data like number of memory sticks, DDR timings, stock clock speed and BCLK setting, video card info and VRAM size, etc.
To see what I mean, run CPU-Z, go to the About tab and press the Save Report button and look at the results.
This can all be done without user intervention in an automatic way, but maybe I need to add an Auto-It file to the test to make it all run as desired.
If this works and I'm able to extract the relevant data from the created file and can insert it into the database, we may be in business for the next version of PPBM5.5 or PPBM6. It does require a modification to the instructions, making them a lot easier, because there is less data to fill out.
2. Data submission:
The submission form can be simplified if the CPU-Z data can be used. We have to create an automatic way to attach the created .html file from CPU-Z to the submission form and we have to streamline the Output.txt and Output-MPE.txt files to be more easily included in the 'form.lib.php' file. It currently is manual labor and very time consuming.
3. Adding to Database:
I have to find a way to create database records from the Gmail forms I receive. All incoming mail messages need to be checked on relevancy and if relevant, need to be added automatically to the database and then offered for approval before final inclusion in the database. Data included in the database will then include submission date and time, Email address, IP address used, plus links to the files submitted and available on the website.
4. Publication of the database:
After approval of new records from step 3, all updates will be automatically applied to the database and accessible for users. I do not yet intend to introduce a user account , requesting login before all functionality is accessible. Too much trouble and administration.
Queries should be possible on things like CPU (check box), so include 17-920, i7-930, i7-950 but exclude i7-980X and i7-990X, Size of memory (check box), Overclocked (boolean, yes, no), SSD as OS disk, and similar options.
The biggest problem is to keep the color grading and statistical indicators (Top, D9, Q3, Med, Q1 and D1) intact on dynamically generated queries. Say you make a query which results in 20 observations, this should show the related colors and legends. Next query results in 48 observations and of course the color grading and legends do need to reflect that. Question in my mind, does the RPI remain constant, independent of the query or does that need to be recalculated on the basis of the query?
Next thing is to allow a user to select a specific observation and by simply clicking on it be shown, in a separate window (detail page) or accordion, all the CPU-Z related information about the hardware.
The graphs, Top-20 and MPE Gains, need to be dynamically adjusted, based on the query used.
5. Ideally, external links:
In an ideal situation, one could link the CPU-Z data to external price databases, looking up current prices for CPU, memory, video card, disks, raid controller, etc. to get instant BFTB charts, based on the query made. But that is the next step.
Situation now:
I have a MySQL database that is easily updated with the new submissions. Simply create a .CSV flie from the submitted forms and import that into the database. The bulk of the initial work is done.Lots remain to be done as you can see above, but that is for a later time.
Question:
I have this table, that needs to be filled with data in the submitted and attached files. Mr. X submitted his data and can be uniquely identified by his "Ref_ID". He attached one or two files in .TXT format with the relevant test data. These files are stored on the server with a concatenated name:
"Ref_ID","-","filename"
Say his Ref-ID is: 20110204-6cf5 and his submitted file is called: Output(99).txt then the file can be found on the server as
20110204-6cf5-Output(99).txt
I need to be able to open that comma delimited file, the contents may look like this: "439","1036","819","531" and insert these contents into the relevant record and fields.
Graphically,
is what I want to achieve.
This being my first exposure to PHP/MySQL, you can imagine I'm not clear on how to go from here.
Added complication is that I actually have 5 numbers to insert per record and two calculated fields, Total Score and RPI should be calculated fields. Haven't yet figured out how to handle calculated fields, maybe only in the PHP/HTML code and not in the database.
I hope someone can help me.

You do have a very complex looking site and may need several tables in mysql to handle all that data. If you knew to phpmysql I would suggest taking a look at this tutorial it will help get you started in understanding how to $_GET info from a database and also how to $_POST data to a database. I am no expert just learning myself and I found this very helpful. This is the link http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_dynamic_site_pt1.html
There are also many tutorials on Youtube to help build a CMS Content Management Site I would suggest the following: -
http://www.youtube.com/user/phpacademy
http://www.youtube.com/user/betterphp
http://www.youtube.com/user/flashbuilding
And many more on my channel here
http://www.youtube.com/user/Whisperingonthewind
CMS's are easier to maintain, add edit and delete content.
I have also recently bought a Book by David Powers Training from the Source very helpful.
Anyway hope you get it sorted.
