Unable to Connect to JDBC Connection Pool from Glassfish

Question

I am running GlassFish Server Open Source Edition 3.1.2.2 (build 5) with MySql

I have created a JDBC Connection Pool using NetBeans.

Googled this problem I found that adding it is a classpath issue. Connecting a MySQL database to Glassfish classpath is not set or classname is wrong and http://bhapca.blogspot.in/2009/06/class-name-is-wrong-or-classpath-is-not.html Added the jar in the directory.

C:\Program Files\glassfish-3.1.2.2\glassfish\domains\domain1\lib

and also tried in

C:\Program Files\glassfish-3.1.2.2\glassfish\domains\domain1\lib\ext

Restarted the server many times. Re-created connection pool .Still No Success.

I get this when i try pinging it from Admin Console

Error An error has occurred
Ping Connection Pool failed for AffableBeanPool. Class name is wrong or classpath is not set for : com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource Please check the server.log for more details.

Answer 1

You've placed the jdbc jar in domain folder, try putting it in the Glassfish server folder.
C:\Program Files\glassfish-3.1.2.2\glassfish\lib

Answer 2

Right, you lack mysql lib find and download mysql-connector-java-5.x.x-bin.jar copy to E:\Projects\glassfish3.1.1\glassfish\lib then restart server and enjoy !!!
