3.5.3.2 Edit mysql-ds.xml file

If you are running LiveCycle with a MySQL database, you must set MySQL as the default data source for JBoss. This procedure assumes that the MySQL JDBC driver is installed in the [appserver root]/server/lc_mysql/lib directory.

  1. Open the [appserver root]/server/lc_mysql_cl/deploy/mysql-ds.xml file in a text editor and modify the <local-tx-datasource> element with your MySQL connection settings:

    <jndi-name>DefaultDS</jndi-name> 
    <connection-url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/adobe/</connection-url> 
    <user-name>adobe</user-name> 
    <password>adobe</password>
  2. Replace the following text in the file with values that are specific to your database:

    • localhost: Replace this value with the name of the server hosting the database.

    • 3306:Replace this value with the port number for your database server.

    • adobe: Replace this value with the database that will connect with LiveCycle.

  3. In the lines that follow the <connection-url> settings, locate the user-name and password settings and replace the default values with the user name and password that the application server uses to access your database.

  4. Save and close the file.
