  2. In SSQUARE Admin, click Plug-in > Maintain Data Source
  1. Click Add to create a new Database adapter
  2. Define Database Adapter Information. The following database will be used in this tutorial,


Example:

Data Source Name : TestDB
Connection String* : jdbc:mysql://mysql.net:1234/test
Username : techberry
Password : techberry

*Click (?) to see reference of connection strings for supported databases

  1. Click Test Connection to test connection between SSQUARE and your database server
  2. If connected successfully, click Save. You will find the Database Adapter Name listed on a list.
