Problem with latest revision - CurrencyDimension - getModelFieldTypeReader

I am unable to do a "run-install" on the latest version when trying to
connect to Mysql, but I can with Derby.

The error I get is:

java.lang.NullPointerException
    at
org.ofbiz.entity.GenericDelegator.getEntityFieldType(GenericDelegator.java:509)
    at
org.ofbiz.entity.model.ModelEntityChecker.checkEntities(ModelEntityChecker.java:101)

turns out "helperName" is null for CurrencyDimension.

I see that there is a entitymodel_olap.xml file which contains
CurrencyDimension (it does not exist in entitymodel.xml), but my
entityengine.xml does not contain the line:

        <group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap"
datasource-name="localmysqlolap"/>

because I don't see an olap datasource for mysql.

So it looks like i need to find an olap datasource for mysql or find what
broke it so my previous entityengine.xml version does not work.
I see that the GenericDelegator getEntityFieldType and
getModelFieldTypeReader methods were changed recently - which is where the
null helpName is detected.

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Al

or just leave the setting untouched:

<group-map group-name="org.ofbiz.olap" datasource- 
name="localderbyolap"/>

Al,

The easiest solution is to manually create an ofbizolap db in mysql
and then run the build.
