Hi all

I finally managed to get past the no openspecime.properties file issue.

Know though I get the following error in tomcat log. Can anyone help please:

org.springframework.beans.factory.BeanCreationException: Error creating bean with name ‘de-liquibase’ defined in ServletContext resource [/WEB-INF/applicationContext.xml]: Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is liquibase.exception.DatabaseException: java.sql.SQLException: Cannot load JDBC driver class ‘com.mysql.jdbc.Driver’

Hello,

Based on the error message I assume you did not deploy the mysql connector ( https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/ ). You have basically two options
(a): deploy it directly with openspecimen - copy the jar file into the WEB-INF/lib folder within the openspecimen exploded web application folder
(b): add mysql connector as a common lib in tomcat
