1. Installation

OMB2B SQL can only be used with MySQL and if MySQL is locally installed (127.0.0.1/localhost). Be sure that the mysql and mysqldump command is in your environment variables!

1.1 Add MySQL binaries to PATH variable:

If you didn't add the MySQL binary folder to your PATH, it is not a problem:

1.1.1 Linux (/bin/sh):

shell> cd $HOME
shell> nano .basrhc

Add the following line to the end of the file:

export PATH=/folder/to/mysql/bin/:$PATH

shell> source .bashrc

1.1.2 Mac OS X (/bin/zsh):

shell> cd $HOME
shell> nano .zshrc

Add the following line to the end of the file:

export PATH=/folder/to/mysql/bin/:$PATH

shell> source .zshrc

1.1.3 Windows:

1. On the Windows desktop, right-click My Computer.
2. In the pop-up menu, click Properties.
3. In the System Properties window, click the Advanced tab, and then click Environment Variables.
4. In the System Variables window, highlight Path, and click Edit.
5. In the Edit System Variables window, insert the cursor at the end of the Variable value field.
6. If the last character is not a semi-color (;) add one.
7. After the final semi-colon, type the full path to the MySQL binary folder you need to add.

Example: C:\MySQL\bin
