Application Name: I'm to create an instance of a platform server using the SDK instructions at https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/OpenMRS+SDK#OpenMRSSDK-Installation
Version Number: According to the URL above, this is 3.5.0 (released on 2016/11/29)
Question: When I use the mvn command "mvn openmrs-sdk:setup" everything goes well with the database connection. Here's is a transcript of what I see:
Which database would you like to use?:
1) H2
2) MySQL 5.6 (requires pre-installed MySQL 5.6)
3) MySQL 5.6 in SDK docker container (requires pre-installed Docker)
4) Existing docker container (requires pre-installed Docker)
Which one do you choose? [1/2/3/4]: 2
The distribution requires MySQL database. Please specify database uri (-DdbUri) (default: 'jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/@DBNAME@'):
Please specify database username (-DdbUser) (default: 'root'):
Please specify database password (-DdbPassword) (default: ' '):
Connected to the database.
Importing an initial database from classpath://openmrs-platform.sql...
But then when I actually start the server with the command
mvn clean install openmrs-sdk:run -DserverId=my_test_server
the error.log shows that the DB connection fails:
WARN - InitializationFilter.verifyConnection(1000) |2016-12-25 16:16:49,983| Error while checking the connection user account
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLNonTransientConnectionException: Could not create connection to database server. Attempted reconnect 3 times. Giving up.
I am using MySql 5.7 instead of 5.6. Will a server created with the SDK mvn task work with MySql 5.7? Or is this problem due to something else?
Thanks
