By default, the Talend Administration Center Web application is configured to run with the default MySQL
database.
Before you begin
- The external database must have been created with a utf8 collation.
- If you want to use a MySQL, Oracle, or MS SQL database for Talend Administration Center,
install the right database driver in the application server as described in Installing database drivers in your Web application server.
- For MySQL users: to prevent further transaction issues when
resuming a trigger on the Job
Conductor page of Talend Administration Center, it is recommended to configure the transaction isolation
level under the
[mysqld]
group in the mysql.ini or mysql.conf configuration file as follows: transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED
.
Procedure
-
Start the application server, then open a Web browser and type the
URL of the Talend Administration Center Web
application.
-
On the Login page, click Go to db config
page, then enter the administrator password (by default, it is
admin).
Note that if you are starting Talend Administration Center for the first time, you
already are on the database configuration page.
Note:
Depending on the database security setting, you may need to add
additional parameters to your connection URL. For Windows users connecting to a
MySQL database, you must load the time zone data into the time zone tables. You
can do this by adding the serverTimeZone parameter to the URL:
jdbc:mysql://hostname:{ip_address}:3306/{db_name}?useSSL=false&serverTimezone={server_time_zone}&allowPublicKeyRetrieval=true
-
In the Database type list, select your database. As a result, the
Driver and URL fields are automatically
updated with the template corresponding to this database.
-
In the URL field, replace the parameters in brackets with your
database details.
Note that you can click the Reload from file button to reload
your previous database as changes are not saved until you click Save.
-
Click Save to take your changes into
account.
