== GenerateINI ==

'''Note: The following images show the configuration of a MySQL connection. But in most cases you don't need a database server and can use H2 instead. Just hit enter two times.

This tutorial does NOT cover installation of MySQL database. It is assumed that if you are going to install server from within Eclipse, you will install MySQL and set up the required database. If you are going to run the server from within Eclipse, you

will need to create the server.ini file. These are the steps needed for that:

Run.

At this point you have to enter the appropriate data to attach to your running database. Your responses are shown below in green.

Once you hit enter on the password, it will ask you to specify RSA key. Take default (press enter).

Give it a couple minutes, and your server.ini is done.
