Ok i'm trying to connect to MySQL via locally. But when I run the bots, it gives an error and says "missing driver?". Its MySQL 5 and all the other bots work fine. Any ideas?

There is a JDBC driver, (been so long I can't remember) that you have to have. I got the bots to connect to the mysql server but for some reason I couldn't get it to insert data. At that time I didn't understand mysql but I understand it better now. I don't play with TWCore that much anymore.

Good luck.

If you want to be successful you'll need to know a lot about how mysql works and java.

In corecfg/sql.cfg make sure any entry that starts with Driver = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

Also check your runbots script (you can edit it with right click) and make sure that the jar on the classpath is the one in the misc folder.

Downloading a newer jar and updating the classpath in here is probably not a bad idea.
