Just in case anyone else comes across this thread, the problem had something to do with leaving the lcds app in place. No matter what I did with ports, I still got port conflicts.
Just move the lcds app, and all is OK.

@Chris: Sorry, I haven’t touched LCDS is almost 2 years. Obviously, you’ll want to double check all the usual stuff: db username, db password, db name, db privileges, etc.

After that, you are on your own. Good luck!

Hi, This is a great post. Thanks so much for the detailed instructions. I would have had no idea how to do this.

I’m having one problem though. Everything in Part 1 and Part 2 works until I try to expand “Tables”. It tells me it couldn’t connect to the database.

I’m wondering if there is anyway to directly test the configuration to mysql?

Thanks again

@Corby: Seems like FB4 doesn’t like the LCDS service. I have a one idea:

Sometimes seems like LCDS doesn’t automatically regenerate the generated code when you make changes to the model.

So here’s a helpful trick to force regeneration: Switch to the Flash Builder perspective, go to the Data/Services view, and click the Edit Active Data Model icon. For some unknown reason this seems to force code regeneration.

When I'm building the model, I get this error:

The destination "null" used by service "ConsultantsService" was not found in the services configuration file. Update the config file and refresh the service in the Data/Services view.

I'm not sure what configuration file this refers to. Any ideas?
