Hello, I am currently trying the activiti-app and activiti-rest applications and tried to replace the in-memory H2 database with a mysql server because the 2 applications did not point on the same database. However, when I try to change this configuration, Tomcat returns me a 404 for the associated pages. My goal is to reflect changes in
My environment is Debian 8 and I'm using Activiti 6.0. I created a user activiti in mysql that has access to the activiti database.
I modified the following file (just commenting the h2 configuration and adding the mysql one) :
/var/lib/tomcat7/webapps/activiti-app/WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/activiti-app/activiti-app.properties
db=activiti
datasource.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
datasource.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/activiti?characterEncoding=UTF-8
datasource.username=activiti
datasource.password=activiti#db=h2
#datasource.driver=org.h2.Driver
#datasource.url=jdbc:h2:mem:activiti;DB_CLOSE_DELAY=-1
#datasource.username=sa
#datasource.password=hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.SQLServerDialect
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.DB2Dialect
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.PostgreSQLDialect
And the following file :
/var/lib/tomcat7/webapp/activiti-rest/WEB-INF/classes/db.properties
db=activiti
jdbc.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/activiti?characterEncoding=UTF-8
jdbc.username=activiti
jdbc.password=activiti
With this configuration, http://localhost:8080/activiti-app returns a 404 while http://localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service/repository/deployments continue to send data from the example (and not from mysql).
I catched the log in /var/log/tomcat7/localhost.2018-06-07.log : "Error initialising form data schema"

Do you have any idea where the problem is ? Do I have to preconfigure anything in mysql before ? Here is my mysql version :
mysql --version
mysql Ver 14.14 Distrib 5.5.60, for debian-linux-gnu (x86_64) using readline 6.3
mysql -uactiviti -pactiviti
use activiti;

28 rows in set (0.00 sec)
The data inside the database looks like the one shown in activiti-rest so I will suppose this part works. How can I fix the activiti-app please ?
- - - -
PS : By replacing datasource with jdbc in activiti-app/.../activiti-app.properties, the configuration seems to reuse the H2 one as they are not stored after a restart of tomcat7 (which is weird because I commented the H2 configuration).
- - - -
PPS : after editing the activiti-app configuration back to datasource (instead of jdbc), I could access to the application with a persistent database. It modified the application configuration as the data seems to be reflected in database :
| Tables_in_activiti |
| ACT_DE_DATABASECHANGELOG |[...]
| ACT_WO_COMMENTS |
| ACT_WO_RELATED_CONTENT |
| hibernate_sequences |
+-------------------------------+
48 rows in set (0.00 sec)
But creating a new process definition / app / task / ... in activiti-app is never reflected in activiti-rest.
I could not create a new user and check if he was created in database because Kermit doesn't have the right to manage users even though he is in the admin group. Thus, I tested a modification of the profile (the lastname field in fact). However, this field is not in any ACT_ID_xxx table.
Part of the URLs tested in activi-rest are :
activiti-rest/service/runtime/tasks
activiti-rest/service/repository/process-definitions
activiti-rest/runtime/process-instances
activiti-rest/service/identity/users
Thanks by advance.

I noticed that you are not using the correct Dialect for MySQL.
#hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.H2Dialect
hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLDialect
Seems that form engine tables were not created
Caused by: org.activiti.form.engine.ActivitiFormException: Error initialising form data schema
Are you using an existing schema or letting Activiti create the tables?
06-08-2018 12:07 AM
Hello, thanks for your response.
Yes, I let Activiti create the tables. I only created a user that has access to the activiti database and linked its credentials in the activiti-app.properties file.
I replaced the H2 configuration with MySQL for Hibernate as you pointed me and re-executed tomcat and now, the databases are correctly linked !
In the db.properties from activiti-rest, there wasn't any definition of Hibernate for H2 in the demo. Should I add the same MySQL configuration as for activiti-app ?
06-08-2018 02:20 AM
No that's not needed for activiti-rest since it doesn't use Hibernate. Is all working fine now?
