EA repository does not open - need resolution ASAP
« on: May 23, 2013, 01:01:10 am »
Hi

I have a EA repository created with MySQL server.

when i open the repository through EA, it gets connected to the repository (which i know with the name that comes on the top of the EA screen), but the cursor goes round and round around the Open Project dialog box...
what could be the reason behind it?

Need to know the resolution ASAP, plzzz

Thanks
KN

Have you ever used the repo or is it a fresh one?

Make sure:
- creation script for MySQL has successfully run
- you have the correct rights
- you have transfered a model to your MySQL DB
  Tools, Data Management, Project Transfer
  (you may use one empty repository (*.eap file with no or few content)
- You can check with MySQL query
   select * from t_object

Kind regards,

Helmut

And don't forget security.
There are often issues with DBMS repositories because the user doesn't have enough rights on the database.
I would suggest to grant all possible right to begin with, and then take rights away until it stops working.

You can say it was Magic or something but the repository is working now...before i could do any of the steps that were suggested.

Thanks everyone!!!
