What if MySQL is not on the Master server?
It is possible to setup clustering with a MySQL instance that is on a Slave server instead of on
the master. In this case, the Slave server must be installed with the Server Extension and
MySQL modules, the MySQL instance configured (steps 2-4 above) then the master and other
slaves can be installed. The remainder of the instructions remain the same.
It is also possible to setup clustering with MySQL being installed completely separately from
PlanetPress Connect, such as using an existing MySQL instance. In this case, the instructions
for the bind address must be followed, but the user does not have to be root. A user for MySQL
must, however, be created and have full access (GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES) to a database
called "objectiflune" that can be created before Connect is installed.
Binding and Root access on the Master server
l The MySQL server's binding must be set to accept connections from the slave servers. To
do this, open C:\Program Files\Objectif Lune\OL Connect\MySQL Product\MySQL\my.ini
in a text editor and change the line bind-address= 127.0.0.1 to bind-
address=0.0.0.0.
l
Once the changes have been made and saved you need to restart the MySQL
services.
l Access must be granted to the root user on the IPs from which the Slave server will
connect:
l Open a Command Prompt in the following folder: C:\Program Files\Objectif Lune\OL
Connect\MySQL Product\MySQL\bin (tip: navigate to the folder, SHIFT+Right-click
and select "Open a command prompt here!).
l Type in the following command to connect to the database, where <password> is
your MySQL password (by default it is admin):
mysql --user=root --password=<password> objectiflune
l You should see the prompt become mysql>. Here, type the command to allow the
"root" user to be accessed from a specific IP subnet range. For example, to accept
communication on 192.168.*.*, use: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON
objectiflune.* TO 'root'@'192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0'
IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; , where password is the one provided during
installation. (ref: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql-security-excerpt/5.5/en/adding-
