Configurator

"Configurator" is a small utility for configuring global Kumula settings for each user. It creates the ".kumularc" file in the user's home directory. Currently, it support three kinds of settings.

Language settings

In the Configurator's language tab, the user can select their preferred language. Unfortunately, the applications have not been translated yet, so this isn't very useful at this time.

Database settings

The most important setting for each user. You have to enter the database access parameters here to get access to the Kumula database. Without this information you won't be able to use any Kumula application!

Note: If you can't access your database, even if you're entered the right parameters, start "Configurator" from a terminal window. This may give you enhanced error messages. Maybe you get a message like this:

QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL3 driver not loaded QSqlDatabase: available drivers:

In this case, Qt was built/installed without database drivers. Check your distribution's help to install these drivers. If you're running SUSE, try installing the package "qt3-mysql". If you're using Gentoo, rebuild Qt with the right USE flag (USE="mysql" emerge qt).
