I still get the same error "InvalidExternalResource [JDBC Driver is not found on classpath.]" when I try to create a new resource.

I did as you suggest:

* Added the dependency to core/pom.xml
* Rebuilt everything from the root directory via "mvn -Pall clean install".
* Ran it from enduser via "mvn -P embedded,all"

I don't know what is wrong.

Which value did you provide for the "JDBC Driver" property? Are you attempting to configure the DBTable Connector Bundle?

Hi Sergio,
about some points below:

First point about AnyTypeClasses worked flawlessly. (Although I'm still trying
to figure out why I cannot reuse those schemata pre-loaded there).

The pre-loaded Schemas are already assigned to some AnyTypeClass - and each Schema might be assigned to an AnyTypeClass instance at most.

I take back part of what I said on the second point. The dependency addition actually works and downloads the drivers, but I did it on enduser/pom.xml instead of core/pom.xml because the Getting Started page [1] suggests to run it
from there:

" ...... then, from the enduser subdirectory, execute:
mvn -P embedded,all"

Logically, the MySQL JDBC driver is used by the Core, not by the Enduser UI, so the correct procedure is to add the dependency to core/pom.xml, rebuild everything from the root directory via "mvn clean install" or "mvn -Pall clean install", then move back to the enduser subdirectory and start as reported by the Getting Started guide.

Regards.

Is it okay?

Hi Francesco,

First point about AnyTypeClasses worked flawlessly. (Although I'm still trying
to figure out why I cannot reuse those schemata pre-loaded there).

Second point about dependency still throws same error: "
InvalidExternalResource. JDBC Driver is not found on classpath." This is what I added (right before the first </dependencies> occurrence in core/pom.xml ) :

....

<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.42</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.microsoft.sqlserver</groupId>
<artifactId>sqljdbc4</artifactId>
<version>4.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>

Since I'm trying to connect to sqlserver as well.
Suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Best Regards,
Sergio

Thank you Francesco.

I'm trying to accomplish what you say, however I'm having two issues at the
moment:

1. I log in to syncope-console/ as admin, click on Types -> AnyTypeClasses -> New AnyTypeClass but I find no schema to add because all lists are empty.

Of course, you need first to create new schemas that are not assigned yet to any
AnyTypeClass.

1. I was able to create a connector in Topology -> connid -> Add New Connector, but when I try to create a resource for that connector it shows this error message: InvalidExternalResource. JDBC Driver is not found on classpath.

This happens because you are likely attempting to create a DBTable or
ScriptedSQL connector for a DBMS (MySQL / MariaDB? PostgreSQL? other?), for
which you'll need to include the related JDBC driver.

Since it seems you're running the Maven project, just add the related dependency
to core/pom.xml (right before the first </dependencies> occurrence):

<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.42</version>
</dependency>

for MySQL, or

<dependency>
<groupId>org.mariadb.jdbc</groupId>
<artifactId>mariadb-java-client</artifactId>
<version>1.6.1</version>
</dependency>

for MariaDB, and so on.

I created my project with maven archetype and run it with

mvn -P embedded,all

Any clue of what I'm doing wrong here?

Your help is very appreciated.

Sergio

Hi,

does anyone know about any easy to follow Syncope tutorials or documentation?

I have been reading the reference guide but I find it hard to follow.

This is what I need to do: Synchronize db2db fields , web service to web service

Hi Sergio, and welcome to Apache Syncope!

We don't have much "from 0 to ready" tutorials out there; you might want to read
this post by Colm about pulling users from LDAP:

A previous tutorial showed how to synchronize (pull) users and roles into Apache Syncope 1.2.x from an LDAP backend (Apache Directory). Int...

Also, someone started a primer a while ago

but it's in the very early stages.

At a high level, for your own use case you'll need to:

1. define all the plain schemas you want to model for the Internal Storage
2. create one or more Connectors
3. for each Connector, create one or more External Resource where you define the mapping between Internal Storage's schemas and External Resource's attributes
4. for each Resource you want to pull users from, create a Pull Task

I'd suggest to start with one Connector / Resource (maybe for the DB you want to
pull users from) and then proceed incrementally.

If the users you want to pull from the external DB fit in a single table, you can use the DBTable connector, otherwise you'll need the ScriptedSQL, which
also requires to code / adjust some Groovy scripts to work.

Maybe it's also an idea for you to start with the Standalone Distribution, which
is full of test data, and look at how things are configured there.
