These steps are required when you convert from a demo/trial server installation to a production installation.

Tip

While you are demo-ing you do not need to do the Database Setup steps discussed below.

Your  server requires an SQL database for storing users and form submissions.

Info

frevvo only supports/certifies the  running in the Apache Tomcat container. Refer to our Supported Platforms for the list of Application Servers and databases supported/certified by frevvo.

Tip

If you are using Oracle12c as your database, the jdbc driver must be version 7 ojdbc.jar for the Insight Data batch process to function properly. Refer to the Install a JDBC Driver topic for the details.

The server may function with other SQL database types but only the versions listed on the Supported Platforms page have been certified.

Warning
  • The default HSQLDB is ONLY sufficient for demo/trial versions of . All production users MUST switch their software to a production quality database.
  • You cannot migrate the data (user, roles, applications) automatically from HSQL to your production database. See this topic for the manual procedure details.

The following steps describe how to change the underlying database from the demo/trial HSQLDB to a production quality SQL database. The database configuration file, server.xml is located in <frevvo-home>/frevvo/tomcat/conf directory.

  • the HSQLDB.jar file is located in WEB-INF/lib in the frevvo.war.
  • the SQL Server JDBC Driver - this driver (mssql-jdbc-6.1.0.jre8 ) is included in the frevvo.war file so there is no need to copy it to the <frevvo-home>/tomcat/lib directory.

    Warning

    At this time, frevvo only supports the v6.1.0.jre8 version of the SQL Server JDBC driver.  This version of the driver is included in the frevvo tomcat bundle. v6.2+ of the driver may cause an issue with downloading larger attachment files from the Live Forms submission repository. v6.2+ versions should not be used until further notice.

...

Info

Once you have the driver you need, copy it to <frevvo-home>/tomcat/lib.
