Installation Guide
1. Step 1: Database Installation - Download MySQL 5.1 free version and install it on your computer. Link: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.1.html#win32

- Go to the link and select the file Windows MSI Installer (x86) version 5.1.37 in a mirror. This file is approximately 97.9M. You may need to register the page to be able to download. - After download, you run the .msi file to install MySql. The screen looks like this:

- During the installation, if it asks for passwords, put 123456 for all the fields. (Or you can give your own password, but need to change in the program also. We recommend you should input 123456 for ease of use). After that will be this screen.

Now you need to import data to your database. Because by default Sun does not have a nice-friendly interface to import. But we can do it manual but easily. - Open Run command window:

- Type this mysql u root p h localhost. Then it will ask you for a password. This password is the above you typed in. (123456)

When you are in, the Welcome screen is like this:

*Notes:
Use Netbeans 6.5 or newer, because it has GlashFish 3.0 server built in.

Start the server before the client ATM.

At initial step, the programs will automatic create 2 files on your disk

C:\ATM\card.txt and C:\ATM\envelope.txt to simulate the ATM card to login and the envelope to deposit money. You can modify these files to login as another user.
Log file is stored at ATMServer\Log\ATMServer.txt.

Note on GUI version, there is some mysterious display defects not been fixed

yet. But the methods are working fine every time we run it at the first time.
Sending notification email when balance warning occurs not working under

campus proxy. But it can work outside. If you can not connect to database, go to the server change this line <property name="eclipselink.jdbc.password" value="yourpasswordhere"/>
