Hello !

I am in need of some advice and help on how do I actually import or connect KonaKart into Eclipse with a detailed step-by-step guide.

The KonaKart User Guide is of not much use to me as I am very new to KonaKart, Java codes and Eclipse.

Thank you for your much appreciated help!   

Hi there.

I am wondering on how do I actually import the jar/war files that I've saw people talking about in the forum while they are configuring to connect KonaKart to Eclipse.
And what about the build.xml file? How do I actually transport it to Eclipse?

Thank you in advanced for the much needed and appreciated help!

Hi Thiru!

How do you even configure KonaKart into Eclipse? Do you have any information on how to do it as I am new to KonaKart, Eclipse and Java.

Thank you!

Hi konakarts,

here my way to run konakart in eclipse(3.3.0) with tomcat(5.5.25) and (sysdeo plugin)
1.create a java project

2.install konakart into this project folder of your eclipse workspace

3.make
custom/appn/src
custom/adminengine/src
custom/engine/src
custom/modules/src
to src-folders

4.set jars from
konakart/Web-INF/lib
konakartadmin/Web-INF/lib
birt-viewer/Web-INF/lib
and(from tomcat/common/lib)
jsp-api
servlet-api
to build path

This works for me.

regards, rula

Hi Rula !

I am wondering how do you have any detailed steps to set jars from Step 4 on wards? And I have also seen many people in the forum talking about the build.xml file. How do I put it into my project in the Eclipse workspace and actually run it?

Thank you so much for your much appreciated help! 

Hi Paul and DMG,

I am wondering on whether can either of you guide me with a step-by-step guide or provide me with some information on how do I actually import KonaKart into Eclipse. I am totally clueless on how do I actually have to do the required steps as I am really new to Java and Eclipse. The KonaKart User Guide isn't helping me much at all.

Thank you in advanced for your much appreciated help!   

Hi Greg, I need more information about where do I find the java classes that is in my com after installing KonaKart, where do I have to paste them at in my Eclipse project? And also, what do you mean exactly when you say "look at custom/build.xml - so with a little effort you could create the Eclipse project you need with ANT build support."?

Other than that you can copy all the java classes you need over to your Eclipse project manually.  Note that there are build files provided for all of these sources - look at custom/build.xml - so with a little effort you could create the Eclipse project you need with ANT build support.

Hi Ming.

Was wondering on which page of the PDF file of the User Guide would I be able to find the relevant materials that I need to connect KonaKart to Eclipse?

Would appreciate your help a lot. Thank you! 

Hi there Superbear!

I do not quite get what you mean by this:

Just open your command line go to the konakart custom folder and type:

bin/kkant make_eclipse_project

What is or where is my command line? How do I get to my command line?

Thanks a lot superbear! 
I'll try to use ANT and hope to get it working by the end of this week (hopefully!). Hope it  will work alright for me.  :/

Hello there.

I do not quite get what you guys mean on how to import or connect KonaKart to Eclipse.
I have created a dynamic web project in Eclipse. Then where do I go from here?
Could you guide me as I have never touched Java codings and Eclipse before.

Thanks a lot in advanced!

Yeah I am somewhat an IT-illterate. I have only studied HTML before and Java is on a totally whole new level.
The Java codes are totally different and I am clueless on where codes are supposed to be placed at and what do they do, or where to find them. I have to do customize or do black and whitebox testing about KonaKart using parasoft or something like that. That is according to what my supervisor had told me. I have 12 weeks to do them and am at my first week of the project.

I post the problems if I would have encountered any and ask for solutions in this thread.

Ming, thanks alot once again!  c:

I went into mySQL and typed in a root password for the database which I am using.
So during the installation, I renamed the part with " jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull " to " jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mysql?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull " under the URL for the database and also typed in my root password for the database which actually allowed me to successfully complete the installation of KonaKart.

Hello there!

I am wondering how do I create a Java Web Dynamic Project with reference to KonaKart?
As in how do I actually transfer what I have seen from the demo on KonaKart to Eclipse?
What are the codes that are needed, where can I find them and where do I have to put them into?

Sorry for asking too much but I am an IT-illiterate. I have totally no clues on codings or whatsoever.

Thanks a lot in advanced! 

Hi Ming,

I have already successfully installed KonaKart.
Thanks a lot for your help.
I will post if I were to need any help connecting KonaKart to Eclipse.

Once again, I would like to thank you Ming for helping me. 

Hi there Ming,

The result I get is still the same.   

Connection Parameters:
   User       = root
   Password   = ********
   Driver     = com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
   Url        = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mysql?zeroDateTimeBehavior=convertToNull
Message:   Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
SQLState:  28000
ErrorCode: 1045

_____________________________________________________________
Database Connection Test Failed.
Please correct the errors before running KonaKart.
You can find help in the KonaKart FAQs and in the KonaKart Forum.


Do you have any clues on where could I have gone wrong?
I merely, pressed the next button during the installation and have never changed anything only for the database name.

Thank you very much for your help!
