I have been using Oracle for this without any trouble but I then had to switch it all over to use MySQL and am seeing this error during initialization:
org.springframework.dao.DataAccessResourceFailureException: Could not obtain sequence value; nested exception is com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Unknown table 'BATCH_JOB_SEQ' in field list
The tables are present so its something else going wrong here. After debugging I captured the actual sql it was trying to perform to get the sequence:
select BATCH_JOB_SEQ.nextval from dual;
Which is obviously an Oracle statement! My config states this to setup the connection:
<bean id="springDataSource"
class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
<property name="driverClassName" value="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" />
<property name="url" value="jdbc:mysql://10.252.205.5:3306/MASKNG" />
<property name="username" value="MASKNG" />
<property name="password" value="maskng" />
</bean>
Any help appreciated...
