Symptoms

Connection of MySQL for CROWDID fails.

The following appears in the logs:

1 2014-02-09 17:36:56,959 localhost-startStop-1 ERROR [hibernate.tool.hbm2ddl.SchemaUpdate] You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'type=InnoDB' at line 3

Cause

Since version 5.5, MySQL changed the syntax of TYPE=INNODB to ENGINE=INNODB.

Resolution

Incrowd-openidserver-webapp\WEB-INF\classes\jdbc.properties the setting you are currently having is:

1 hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQLInnoDBDialect

You need to change that to:

1 hibernate.dialect=org.hibernate.dialect.MySQL5InnoDBDialect
