Can you give some background - Are you using Roo within Spring Tool Suite or from Command Prompt? What database are you trying to reverse engineer? What commands have you tried? Did you create your project from Roo?

I hope you were replying to my post... Here's a little background like you asked for...

Roo from the command line... It's a MYSQL - HIBERNATE database. And I've tried the standard commands for the reverse engineering process. I continually get a response that there is no driver available to do perform the reverse engineer process. And there is no download or plugin install options available either.

Yes I was replying.
Have you run the following commands in Roo:
--> persistence setup --provider HIBERNATE --database MYSQL

This will create a database.properties file and you then need to edit this to add the connection/driver details to get to your MYSQL database.

Then you should be able to do the reverse engineer command.

One other note is that I am connecting to SQL Server and I had to add the JTDS driver to the roo shell by downloading jtds-1.2.4.jar and then running the following command in Roo:
--> osgi start --url file:///C:\[path]\jtds-1.2.4.jar
