MySQL JDBC connection problem with jaspererver virtual appliance

Submitted by ericlomm on Mon, 11/30/2009 - 11:28am

Hello,

I am working with the jasperserver virtual appliance that we have purchased in our company. I have run into an issue where when I try to connect to our MySQL database server, or any MySQL database even the local ones for that matter I am getting the error message:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.driver

I have located the jar files for the JDBC connector, but it appears that the connector is not included in any classpath.

What steps do I need to take to get the MySQL JDBC connector to work in this virtual appliance?

Hi Eric,

Three questions for you:

Which version of this JumpBox are you using?

Where is this error coming from, the web interface, or the command line? More generally, what are you trying to do when you get this error?
