Note

If your Drupal and Fedora installations use different database types, Fedora will require the Drupal database driver's jar file in this directory as well. For instance, if Fedora uses PostgreSQL and Drupal uses MySQL, Fedora will require the MySQL jar file for the Drupal Servlet Filter in order to connect to the Drupal database.

Info

For Fedora 3.6.x, try this filter provided by Peter Murray

Warning

If you use the Drupal servlet filter to connect to multiple Drupal databases there is potential for users with the same username in each database to access each others private objects. To avoid this, use the Drupal LDAP module. A Drupal multi-site environment utilizing the LDAP module for all sites ensures a unique username/site configuration.

Note

The Drupal Filter does not currently escape the database url before attempting to connect to the Mysql database, which can cause problems if the user name or password has '%' symbol within it.

4. Stop and Restart Fedora
