Drupal on Java
Posted by nicholsr on February 13th, 2009. Other posts by nicholsr
Just a quick post to note that we are successfully running the well known PHP Content management application Drupal on WebSphere sMash.
You may take a look at our Development Wiki for Installation instructions and status. We are also working on running many of the Drupal extension modules.

Hi,
You reach a point on the web devel that will change the world, thanks a lot for this work ;)
I tried to install drupal on sMash but I get errors with *mysql* queries (on install) , so I tried to configure the db with *mysqli* but phpinfo tel me that mysql Improved is not available ;(
I have no idea about the configuration of mysql-connector-java to activate the mysqli (improved), I just add it on the Dependencies file.
regards,
olivier

Its true that we only support mysql not mysqli for now. I am interested in the mysql errors you are seeing. I guess you have added the mysql-connector-java dependency and then resolved your project – can you tell me what error you see?

Hi Oliver,
We’d like to get to the bottom of this. You do need to be using mysql not mysqli extension. It will be easiest if we can discuss using the forum. I created a thread here: http://www.projectzero.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1553#p6542
I added some questions to that thread. The answers to those questions would help.
