l
max_allowed_packet = 500M : In some implementations, especially when using Capture
OnTheGo, large packet sizes are required to allow transferring binary files. This
substantial packet size maximum setting ensures that the data received by PlanetPress
Connect will be able to be stored within the database.
l
character-set-server = utf8 , collation-server = utf8_unicode_ci , default-character-
set=utf8 : These indicate database support for UTF-8/Unicode.
Using a pre-existing MySQL Instance
If MySQL server is already installed and you wish to use it, the following should be taken into
consideration:
l The MySQL account must have access to all permissions using the GRANT Command,
including creating databases.
l The database configuration must include the options detailed in the "Using the MySQL
Instance from the Installer" on the previous page topic above.
l The SQL instance must be open to access from other computers. This means the bind-
address option should not be set to 127.0.0.1 or localhost.
Using MS SQL Server from the Installer
Note
Since PlanetPress Connect version 1.6 the minimum required version of the MS SQL
Server is SQLServer 2012.
l
When MS SQL is selected, the default values for root user are sa and 1433 for the port.
l If db settings from a previous installation are found, the pre-exising settings will be
displayed for the matching db type (for MS SQL settings, this will only work if they were
created with Server Config Tool 1.5.0 or later, or the Connect installer 1.6.0 or later). If the
db type is changed in the configuration page, the default values for this db type will be
displayed. If the pre-existing db settings are set to Hsqldb, the default db type selection
will be MySQL.
l Selected db settings are stored in the preferences as usual (C:\ProgramData\Objectif
Lune\Ol
Connect\.settings\ConnectHostScope\com.objectiflune.repository.eclipselink.generic.pref
