MySQL install 2.2.5.4

Trying to create the database from scratch, or updating an older database (2.2.3.9), causes MySQL exceptions: Error '150's while trying to create tables (mp_sites from scratch, another one when upgrading). Any ideas?

MySQL installation works fine with 2.2.39 and consists MySQL 5.1.22-rc server, and 5.0.8.1 .Net driver.

Re: MySQL install 2.2.5.4

Hi Allister,

If you copied the files over a previous installation and then changed the connection string to a new db its possible you have an extra script in the /Setup/applications/mojoportal-core/SchemaInstallScripts/mysql folder

There should only be one script in this folder, if there is more than one then delete all except the highest version and start again with a clean db.

The logic is if mp_Sites table doe not exist then first run scripts from the above folder (but as I said there should be only one)

Then it will run additional scripts from the /Setup/applications/mojoportal-core/SchemaUpgradeScripts/mysql folder if the any exist with higher versions

Hope it helps,

Joe

Re: MySQL install 2.2.5.4

Hi Joe,

I didn't copy the new release over an existing install, although I did try (after failing to create a new db) updating an existing db. The new install is completely clean and separate to the older install.

There is only the 2.2.4.8.config file in /Setup/applications/mojoportal-core/SchemaInstallScripts/mysql, and it is this script which fails on the first CREATE TABLE with the (it appears) dereaded error 150!

It's an identical story when I try updating an existing DB (2.2.3.9) db, except here the failure is in the first update script (also when it tries to create a table!).

I suspect the problem might have something to do with MySQL 5.1? I've tried a new connector (5.1.5), but that hasn't fixed it! Strange I can run the scripts in the MySQL browser without problem?

I'll let you know what I find; i was just hoping I wasn't the first!

All the best,

Allister

Re: MySQL install 2.2.5.4

Hi Joe,

The problem with the install (either upgrading or creating the db from scratch) was MySQL 5.1! I tried both the (newer) 5.1.5.0 and older 5.0.8.1 connectors with the same results (the scripts fail in multiple places).

Downgrading to MySQL 5.0.51 solved all the problems. I could create from new, or upgrade a 2.2.3.9 db without a hitch.

Once the database is created (scripts run), the product runs fine with MySQL 5.1 (as far as I've tested!); it's simplly the scripts have problems!

Yes another job for the future (I think 5.1 is now released, or very soon!)
