Thanks, Rubens. Ran netstat to confirm that MySQL is listening on port 3306. After moving the original persistence.xml to persistence.xml.orig, I then copied mysql_persistence.xml to persistence.xml (even though I think that Maxim said that admin.sh should create a usable persistence.xml). Interestingly, when I look at persistence.xml, the MySQL username and password were correct. Despite all that, I still get:
[ERROR] [main] org.openmeetings.cli.Admin - Install failed A connection could not be obtained for driver class "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" and URL "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/openmeetings?autoReconnect=true&useUnicode=true& createDatabaseIfNotExist=true&characterEncoding=utf-8& connectionCollation=utf8_general_ci&cachePrepStmts=true&cacheCallableStatements=true& cacheServerConfiguration=true&useLocalSessionState=true&elideSetAutoCommits=true& alwaysSendSetIsolation=false&enableQueryTimeouts=false&prepStmtCacheSize=3000&prepStmtCacheSqlLimit=1000". You may have specified an invalid URL. Hmmm. Dimitri On Thursday 02 August 2012 8:24:24 am Rubens Queiroz de Almeida wrote: > I had this very same problem yesterday.
