Common DB for activiti-app and activiti-rest?

[avirankatz]

Hi,

I'm relatively new to activiti. For the past few days I've been reading parts of the user guide (mostly the REST API part) and researched the different web apps that come with activiti 6 (activiti-app, activiti-rest, activiti-admin). I noticed that activiti-app and activiti-rest work with different databases.

How can I set them to read and write from/to the same database? Preferably PostgreSQL that runs on an Ubuntu VM.

Your help is highly appreciated,

Aviran

hello, i copied webapps\activiti-app\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-5.1.30.jar to webapps\activiti-rest\WEB-INF\lib\ 

I also copied webapps\activiti-app\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-5.1.30.jar to tomcat\lib.

It show me "  java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver  ".

Can u help me? thanks

Do you use H2 Database? If so, this error is may be specification of H2 database, according to the following link.

Concurrency issues with H2 file mode · Issue #748 · spark-jobserver/spark-jobserver · GitHub 

Could you use real database like Postgresql?

You're right, I was using H2. After switching to PostgreSQL everything works as expected.
