MySQL Compatibility question

CloverDX Platform
1

Hi,
We are running Clover ETL server 3.0.0 and MySQL 5.1. Due to an issue with one of our other tools, we need to upgrade our MySQL server to 5.5.x.

Will there be any compatibility issues? Will Clover ETL 3.0.0 work fine with MySQL 5.5.x…???

Thanks

Hello pro7,

CloverETL uses JDBC interface for databases connection. There are 2 kinds of connections:
* connection done by graph
* connection of Server to database (sandboxes, configuration, task scheduling)

By default, for first is used driver from “clover\WEB-INF\plugins\org.jetel.jdbc\lib\mysql”, but it can be changed in connection wizard. For second you probably put own driver on classpath of application server (e.g. [Tomcat]\lib).

So you can check whether versions of driver you use are ok, when used with MySQL 5.5.

In general: minor version change of MySQL (5.1 → 5.5) should be problem-less.
