  1. On the Oozie Server machine, install the appropriate JDBC .jar file:

    • For Oracle:

      1. Download the Oracle JDBC (OJDBC driver from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/jdbc/index-091264.html.

        Select Oracle Database 11g Release 2 - ojdbc6.jar

      2. Copy the .jar file to the Java share directory

        cp ojdbc6.jar /usr/share/java
      3. Make sure the .jar file has the appropriate permissions - 644.

    • For MySQL:

      1. Install the connector.

        • RHEL/CentOS

          yum install mysql-connector-java-5.0.8-1
        • SLES

          zypper install mysql-connector-java-5.0.8-1
      2. Confirm that the MySQL .jar file is in the Java share directory

        ls /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar
      3. Make sure the .jar file has the appropriate permissions - 644.

  2. Create a user for Oozie and grant it permissions:

    • For Oracle, create the Oozie user and grant it database permissions:

      # sqlplus sys/root as sysdba
      SQL> CREATE USER $OOZIEUSER IDENTIFIED BY $OOZIEPASSWORD;
      SQL> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES TO $OOZIEUSER;
      SQL> QUIT;

      Where $OOZIEUSER is the Oozie user name and $OOZIEPASSWORD is the Oozie user password.

    • For MySQL

      1. Create the Oozie user and grant it database permissions:

        # mysql -u root -p
        mysql> CREATE USER ‘$OOZIEUSER’@’%’ IDENTIFIED BY ‘$OOZIEPASSWORD’;
        mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO ‘$OOZIEUSER’@’%’;
        mysql> flush privileges;

        Where $OOZIEUSER is the Oozie user name and $OOZIEPASSWORD is the Oozie user password.

      2. Create the Oozie database:

        # mysql -u root -p
        mysql> CREATE DATABASE oozie;
