README for users interested in using MySQL as a triplestore backend
|
|
===================================================================
|
|
|
|
The KiWi Triple Store used by Apache Marmotta supports different database
|
|
backends, including H2, PostgreSQL and MySQL. However, for legal reasons,
|
|
we are not allowed to distribute the MySQL connector library together with
|
|
the Apache Marmotta source code or binaries, as it is licensed under GPL
|
|
license.
|
|
|
|
Nonetheless, it is possible to use MySQL by downloading and installing the
|
|
connector manually:
|
|
1. download and unpack the MySQL Connector/J from
|
|
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/
|
|
2. copy the mysql-connector-java-5.x.x.jar file to
|
|
a. the library directory of the application server
|
|
(e.g. $TOMCAT_HOME/lib)
|
|
-- OR --
|
|
b. the library directory of the Apache Marmotta Web application
|
|
(e.g. $TOMCAT_HOME/webapps/marmotta/WEB-INF/lib)
|
|
3. restart the application server
|
|
|
|
Apache Marmotta will then automatically be able to use the MySQL connector
|
|
to connect to a MySQL database. Please note that Marmotta requires at least
|
|
MySQL 5.x, because it makes use of nested queries and foreign keys. |
