Database configuration
Case 1: MySQL is among the selected Connect products to be installed (new MySQL
installation)
If MySQL is selected and there is no previous MySQL configuration on the machine, the
following properties should be defined:
database.password = <password> (required and must meet the rules)
database.port = <port> (3306 is the default port value)
database.unlocked = true or false (the default value is false,
optional)
Note
The unlocked option should only be used when the database requires an external access.
If the Silent Installer runs with the default product selection, MySQL Product is included, and
hence the database.unlocked = true property may be optionally set if MySQL on this machine
is intended to serve as the central database also for remote machines.
If the Silent Installer runs with the explicit installation of a stand-alone (install.product.0 =
Connect Server), the database.unlocked property is irrelevant.
Note
The port will be defined automatically for the MySQL installation. All connect products selected in
the Silent Installer will automatically be configured to use the MySQL running under the port
defined by the database.port property, regardless of the default port 3306 or any other user
defined port.
A different port is required if 3306 is already taken on that machine by another application.
Case 2: The Connect Server is selected and the MySQL Product is not selected
In this case, an external database must be configured for the Server (and other Connect
products included in the Silent installation) to be used.
