I manually copied the my sql connector jar to lib folder of my sql jdbc project. I had some old jars already in that folder and which were also easily added to build path before. Now, I forgot how i did it and i don't see that the lib folder when i try to add the jar to build path. How do it ? I want my jar to be a part of my project and not lying in some random folder.

However, the 'add external jars' button is greyed out, implying that i am not allowed to use it. Can anyone help? If your project builds with Java 9+ make sure you've selected Classpath (as shown here). You should also be able to add the JAR with right-click on the project > Build Path > Add External Archives....
To get started, open the "Preferences" window in Eclipse. Navigate to "Java » Build Path » User Libraries" on the left-hand side and click the "New" button. Enter the library name and click the "OK" button (leave the "System library" checkbox alone).
Paste the jar directly inside eclipse using the project explorer to your desired folder and then try to "Add Jar" from Build Path->Configure Build Path->Libraries.
