Throughout this documentation we are using the tomcat the  tomcat bundle as the installation location for the database connector. This is just an example as the connector will work under any compatible servlet container. This documentation assumes that the tomcat the  tomcat bundle is installed in c:\frevvo. We'll refer to this directory below as <frevvo-home>.

If you have already downloaded the already downloaded the latest v5.1 tomcat bundle for  Infor  In-house then you already have the database connector. It is located in the unpacked tomcat unpacked  tomcat bundle in <frevvo-home>\frevvo\ext\connectors and is named database.zip. If not or if you wish to download the latest version then download the database connector from the  web site. You will need to login with your  account 

Follow these steps to install the connector:

1) Unpack the database.zip file to a temporary location of your choice: e.g. c:\tmp. This will create a folder c:\tmp\database. We'll refer to this directory below as <db-tmp>

...

• If  is running this will automatically expand database.war into a <frevvo-home>\webapps\database sub folder

3) If  If  is not running, start : Double click <frevvo-home>\start-frevvo

...

4)  Test the connector installation by copying this Url directly into your browser:

• For v2.2 http://localhost:8082/database/myStore/allOrders
• For v2.3 http://localhost:8082/database/status

If the Connector Test failed then:

1. Review the previous installation steps
2. See starting and testing the connector installation for more detailed instructions and common problems.
3. If you cannot get the database connector working please see Getting Help to contact  support.

Follow these steps to configure the connector:

If the connector test above was successful you are now ready to configure the database connector to work with your own database.

1)   Copy the JDBC driver appropriate for your database into <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\database\WEB-INF\lib

• The database connector contains pre-installed drivers for the most popular databases. So you may be able to skip this step. See Install a JDBC driver below

2)    If you did have to copy a JDBC driver into lib you must then Restart frevvo, Double click <frevvo-home>\stop-frevvo. Wait until frevvo stops. Then Double click <frevvo-home>\start-frevvo

3)    Configure your database connector Data Source by editing <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\database\WEB-INF\etc\configuration.xml

4)    Define SQL Statements to read/write to your databasse by editing <frevvo-home>\tomcat\webapps\database\WEB-INF\etc\configuration.xml.

Image Added We recommend that you do not leave your database configuration.xml file in its default locations. See configuration file location below.

Install a JDBC driver

The connector relies on the JDBC API. You can use any relational database as long as you have a JDBC driver for that database. The database connector download database.zip comes with several pre-installed drivers.
