Batch metadata tables in mysql

[Venk]

I try running a job and spring complains that the metadata tables are missing. I have been using spring batch for about a few weeks but only with a MapJobRepositoryFactoryBean. I changed the job repository to use a mysql database and am facing this error. Am I missing something? I was under the impression that the tables will be created automatically. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You must creat metadata manually.
All scripts are located in the spring batch jar .
spring-batch-core-2.1.5.RELEASE\org\springframework\batch\core :
schema-mysql.sql
schema-drop-mysql.sql

Thanks for the reply Marwan! I stumbled upon the following post where it is mentioned that Spring creates the tables automatically.

That's why I was wondering if there is something I am missing, that is not allowing the tables to be created. Anyway, I've created the tables manually now.
