Retrieve Schema for MySQL DB-Connection does not work in Talend

Question

I've created a new MySQL DB Connection, and verified it's OK by pressing the Check button in DataBase Connection - Step 2/2 form.

Then I right-click on the DataBase Connection I created and select Retrieve Schemas.

On the first screen of the Schema form that is opened I leave all default values and press Next.

On the second page the Next button is greyed-out, and no matter what I select/fill on the form it remains being greyed out.

Anybody knows why it may be so?

Thanks!!!

Answer 1

I had the same problem, but you can avoid it. If you select the CATALOG, the Next button will still be greyed as on attached screenshot. But if yo will expand the CATALOG and Sellect All, the Next button will be active.

Answer 2

I had this same issue, in order to resolve it I needed to generate database diagrams and then verify that talend could see all the tables I was looking to retrieve. Basically if you cannot expand any schemas it means there is nothing to import.
