I also posted a new blog post where I describe how to address the Mavericks/Yosemite firewall issue.<…>[/quote]
http://www.sqlabs.com/blog/2015/03/cubesql-5-and-mavericksyosemite-firewall/

While this procedure may help to solve some immediate issues and can be executed by someone like the folks usually present in this forum, it is not something that one could ask a customer to do.

There MUST be an easy and automated way to have cubeSQL installed on one of the (OSX) workstations in the LAN of a small team, where the others then can access that database server.

I agree Oliver and as I wrote in the blog post we are not completely satisfied with this solution and we are looking for a better one.
The ideal solution would be a completely automated task but believe me it is really not easy with the pf firewall.

I’m aware of the changes. Have you seen this article?

Hey @Marco Bambini (or anyone who may have it) I’m interested in looking at the Java connector that is listed on the download page for CubeSQL, but the link is dead. It is currently pointing to http://www.sqlabs.com/download/cubesql/cubesql_java.zip.

Does anyone have this java connector?

Thanks!

Hi @Kimball Larsen
It seems that the file has not been copied to the v5 directory, but you can get it from the v4.5 directory:

Thanks @Jürg Otter - found it! I was hoping that the Java library was a re-implementation of the original C library, but it is just using the JSON connection method like the PHP library does. Unfortunately, the JSON connectors barf on my particular use-case.

Guess I really do have to try to port the C library to native PHP for my needs.

There is also a very special, limited time offer for cubeSQL 5 available from:
http://www.sqlabs.com/cubesql_special_offer.php[/quote]

very nice offer Marco!

88

I noticed this too, a great offer!

The latest Apple update breaks the install again in OSX (Well the Mavericks version anyway).

I’m getting the firewall popups that were seemingly cured after the release of CubeSQL 5.

89

From my point of view it’s just a final user offer, not a devs offer. For a final current user it’s really good, for a dev nothing changes.

It’s not clear, but reading how their license works, it’s probably a, final user, one site, not redistributable license.

will get it this week

I switched off the built in firewall and I am using murus now, to control pf firewall settings:

I control the automatic startup of cubesql with lingon (I think the latest version is called Lingon X 2.0 now).

With these two little pieces of software I overcome the rough edges of cubeSQL and OSX.

Hello guys,
cubeSQL Admin application (a Xojo project) is now open source:

Hope this helps.
Best regards.

This is great!

Under what license are you open sourcing it? Any restrictions?
Can I fork it and include it in a closed source project?

94

License is MIT (I’ll add a note about it in the repository).
So you can do whatever you want with the code.
