[galaxy-user] Using mysql instead of sqlite

Hello,

I would like to use MySQL instead of sqlite to store my data. I coudn't find on the Galaxy web site a HOWTO or some guidelines to do it. I only found some lines that might need to be changed/enabled in the universe_wsgi.ini file:

#database_file = database/universe.sqlite database_connection = mysql:///galaxy #database_engine_option_echo = true #database_engine_option_echo_pool = true #database_engine_option_pool_size = 10 #database_engine_option_max_overflow = 20

Could you point out to some doc or briefly describe what I need to do in order to go for mysql?

Are there any plans to support other DBMS's (like Oracle for instance)?

thanks, Erick
