Re: Update of the MySQL backend database

Hi Eddy,

The Protege 3 database back-end is not meant to be edited directly 
(through SQL updates or Excel or anything). The adding of new 
information (new rows) is an especially bad idea, since it is very easy 
to break things.
The Protege back-end is NOT a triple store, but rather a "proprietary" 
storage format developed originally for frames ontologies, and later 
adapted to be used to store OWL ontologies.

You should use the Protege/WebProtege client or the Protege API to 
modify the content of your ontology.

If you explain what you try to achieve, maybe we can provide even more 
specific advise.

Regards,
Csongor
