6. Give authorization of the database to the user "regadmin."

Code Block
GRANT ALL ON regdb.* TO regadmin@localhost IDENTIFIED BY "regadmin"

7. Log out from the MySQL prompt by typing the "quit" command.

Code Block
quit;

Setup Configuration Files

1. Edit the default database configuration defined in the  master-datasources.xml  file located at  <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/conf/datasources  directory as below. Both the database configurations in  registry.xml  and  user-mgt.xml  refer this data source.

Replace these settings with your own custom values:

Code Block
languagehtml/xml
<datasource>
       <name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
       <description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
       <jndiConfig>
           <name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
       </jndiConfig>
       <definition type="RDBMS">
           <configuration>
               <url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/regdb</url>
               <username>regadmin</username>
               <password>regadmin</password>
               <driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
               <maxActive>80</maxActive>
               <maxWait>60000</maxWait>
               <minIdle>5</minIdle>
               <testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
               <validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
               <validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
           </configuration>
       </definition>
</datasource>
The database configuration options
  • url - The URL of the database.
  • username  - The name of the database user.

  • password - The password of the database user.
  • driverClassName  - The class name of the database driver.
  • maxActive - The maximum number of active connections that can be allocated from this pool at the same time or negative for no limit.
  • maxWait - The maximum number of milliseconds that the pool will wait (when there are no available connections) for a connection to be returned before throwing an exception or <= 0 to wait indefinitely.
  • minIdle - The minimum number of active connections that can remain idle in the pool without extra ones being created or 0 to create none.

Setup Drivers

Download the MySQL Java connector JAR from http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html and place it in the <PRODUCT_HOME>/repository/components/lib directory.

Info

Here, <PRODUCT_HOME> refers to the directory where you are running the WSO2 BRS instance.

Create Database

Automatic Database Creation

1. When you start the server for the first time, use the -Dsetup option. It will create all the tables in the given MySQL database.

  • For Linux:
Code Block
wso2server.sh -Dsetup
  • For Windows:
Code Block
wso2server.bat -Dsetup

2. The WSO2 BRS is configured to run with MySQL database.

Manual Database Creation

1. Run the MySQL scripts for both registry and user manager (embedded) databases, provided with the WSO2 BRS, using the below commands (outside the MySQL prompt).

Code Block
mysql -u regadmin -p -Dregdb < 'PRODUCT_HOME/dbscripts/mysql.sql';
Info
titleNote

You will be prompted to enter the password for each command.

2. Start the WSO2 Carbon instance.

  • For Linux:
Code Block
wso2server.sh
  • For Windows:
Code Block
wso2server.bat
