Value Database Installation

After you download the zip / or tar file to your disk, please unarchive the files.
There should be a folder named mysql.
We shall assume that you are using MYSQL database. This documentation is also valid for Oracle 8i or 9i.
If MySql is already installed, create a database called value – in our case we used a database named Emryn.
Run MySql and use the new database

Use value
Or Use emryn

Run the following script to build the tables.

\. <installation dir>/mysql/Value_mysql.sql
\. <installation dir>/mysql/test.sql
You should have generated the essential files and a sample data to go with it.

Make the following changes to the mysql-service.xml file in the JBoss default deployment folder:

        <attribute name="ManagedConnectionFactoryProperties">

            <config-property name="ConnectionURL" type="java.lang.String">jdbc:mysql:///value</config-property>


            <config-property name="DriverClass" type="java.lang.String">com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</config-property>


            <!--set these only if you want only default logins, not through JAAS -->

Start JBoss and you should be able to see the session beans being deployed. Please not all entity beans have been removed and replaced with JDO/DAO components.

Value Client Installation

The Value Client comes pre-installed.
Since it uses components of Infragistics – Jsource, the source cannot be compiled and must be used from the jar file itself.
