Re: Installing the Toolkit
Hi, Mounika,
I’m happy to hear you were able to download and install mySQL. Did you create a blank database? The name you gave to the blank database should be used as the connection url, for example:
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/[databasenamehere]
After creating a blank database, then the database needs to be initialized through the AT Maintenance Program (located in your AT Program folder)
The steps to initialize a new database can be found here:

Best wishes,
