Problem DBRE - mysql

[anupambhatt]

Hello,

I am trying DBRE with mysql database for the first time and facing issues. I could not make the addon search work so have used the OSGI start step mentioned in the other threads but the driver doesn't get instantiated even after installation.

Copy-paste from roo shell window:

roo> osgi start --url file:///E:/developer/lib/mysql-connector-java-5.1.21-bin.jar
roo> database introspect --schema no-schema-required --file 
Could not initialize class com.mysql.jdbc.Connection
roo>

Any pointers on resolution of this issue is appreciated.

Environment: ROO - 1.2.1.RELEASE
STS: Version: 2.9.2.RELEASE
Build Id: 201205071000

Thanks.

I have the same issue.

Have you solved this problem?

Yep, the issue at my end is gone.

What i did is

• closed STS,
• deleted the ROO cache (all the bundles etc)
• and then started STS with a -clean flag.

This was just to make sure that no stale data/entries are being used.

The above steps solved my problem. What i observe is that Roo shell in STS is having such issues many a times and restarting STS and deleting cache etc solves such issues.
