The following examples use a mysql database. You will need to make the necessary modifications using your database server specifications in order for the following steps to work.

Step 1: Create Placeholder Database

 No data will actually be migrated there, but it is required to validate uPortal connectivity settings.

mysql -u root -p mysql
create database myws401;
create user 'myws401user'@'localhost' identified by 'myws401pass';
grant all on myws401.* to 'myws401user'@'localhost';

Step 2: Update Database Dependencies

File Location: uPortal-4.0.2-quick-start/pom.xml

 

Replace:

 

<jdbc.groupId>org.hsqldb</jdbc.groupId>
<jdbc.artifactId>hsqldb</jdbc.artifactId>
<jdbc.version>${hsqldb.version}</jdbc.version>

With:

<jdbc.groupId>mysql</jdbc.groupId>
<jdbc.artifactId>mysql-connector-java</jdbc.artifactId>
<jdbc.version>5.1.6</jdbc.version>

Add:

<dependency>
 <groupId>mysql</groupId>
 <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
 <version>5.1.6</version>
</dependency>

Step 3: Provide Placeholder Database Connection Details

Properties File Location: uPortal-4.0.2-quick-start/uPortal-4.0.2/uportal-war/src/main/resources/properties/rdbm.properties

hibernate.connection.driver_class=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
hibernate.connection.url=jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/myws401
hibernate.connection.username=myws401user
hibernate.connection.password=myws401pass
hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect

Step 4: Run Ant Targets

Build File Location: uPortal-4.0.2-quick-start/uPortal-4.0.2/build.xml

ant db -Dscriptfile=up4_legacy.ddl
ant db-hibernate-portal -Dexport=false -DoutputFile=up4_portal_hibernate.ddl
ant db-hibernate-raw-events -Dexport=false -DoutputFile=up4_raw-events_hibernate.ddl
ant db-hibernate-aggr-events -Dexport=false -DoutputFile=up4_aggr-events_hibernate.ddl
