Within the CUI
distribution you can find a file containing the SQL statements
required to create the ebrusr database, this can be
found at $CUI_HOME/docs/create_tables.sql. The file
contains simple ANSI SQL statements to ensure portability, we advise
that this file is edited in order to tune the tables for your
database system performance.
Hint: The create_tables.sql
attempts to create a database with the name ebrusr. If
this clashes with any of your pre-installed applications, then you
must change the create database name and update all references to
this name in the create_tables.sql file. Don't forget
to ensure the DataSource
parameter url is updated with the new database name (in
your servers configuration file).
Hint: We advise that you change the default
users (or at least passwords) that are inserted into the database
when you execute the create_tables.sql. This is
essential for the CAI user.
 - WARNING: Do not edit the
database, table or column names. If you change any column types,
please ensure they will map to the same java.sql.* and
javax.sql.* classes.
Most database vendors enable a command line creation of tables
using a file containing SQL statements. Please refer to your
database documentation for details on how to achieve this. This is
an example using MySQL:
mysql -udbusername -p < create_tables.sql
Updating the
Database CUI_V0_704 and onwards
- WARNING: Do not update the
database if you have just created it following the instructions
above. This is only to update your existing old database to keep
existing users, accounts etc.
The new CUI/CAI release requires that your main database is
updated. There will be an update_db.sql file
available in the $CAI_HOME/docs/ folder which will include all the
SQL to make the changes. Consult your database documentation to use
this file. Here is an example of updating using MySQL.
MySQL
Updating Example Locate the $CUI_HOME/docs/update_db.sql file,
then run this command:
mysql ebrusr -udbusername -p < update_db.sql
- dbusername is the username the database uses.
- you will be prompted for your password
The changes will now be complete.
