1. download openbd
2. download farcry
3. download mysql, odbc driver and jdbc driver from mysql site. Then
install mysql.
4. place openbd in a directory like: C:\Data\cf\
5. place farcry installation dir in the root (e.g. C:\Data\cf
\jetty-6.1.12-OpenBD\webroot_cfmlapps\cfmlWebContext_1)
6. create a mysql database
7. install the obdc driver (you will use this for the datasource in
windows)
8. place the jdbc driver somewhere and point to it as a classpath in
the environmental variables (go to start/control panel/system/
advanced)
9. go to administrative tools (under control panel) and create a
system data source for the db
It will need the host name (localhost) user name (root), password etc
- taken from mysql. Use the same name for your db and datasource to
make things easier.
10. edit bluedragon.xml in the directory C:\Data\cf\jetty-6.1.12-OpenBD
\etc\openbd
include the following query (using 'root', 'dbname' and 'password'as
the raw info) between /cfmail and /cfapplication
<cfquery>
<datasource name="dbname">
<password>password</password>
<servername>localhost</servername>
<sqldelete>true</sqldelete>
<sqlupdate>true</sqlupdate>
<username>root</username>
<drivername>sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver</drivername>
<sqlstoredprocedures>true</sqlstoredprocedures>
<sqlinsert>true</sqlinsert>
<sqlselect>true</sqlselect>
<connectiontimeout>120</connectiontimeout>
<drivertype>3</drivertype>
<port>3306</port>
<databasename>dbname</databasename>
<description>MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver</description>
<logintimeout>120</logintimeout>
<hoststring>jdbc:odbc:eref5</hoststring>
<maxconnections>24</maxconnections>
<name>dbname</name>
</datasource>
</cfquery>
11. open a cmd shell and navigate to the C:\Data\cf\jetty-6.1.12-
OpenBD diretory. Type in the following to start the servers and
provide enough stack space for openbd and for farcry cms to install;
java -Xmx500M -jar start.jar
12. goto http://localhost:8080/farcry/ and follow the prompts.
