This is the same issue as icatproject/icat.server#311:
The MySQL section in the
setup.properties.example
file is outdated. The classcom.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource
does not exist any more in recent versions ofmysql-connector-java
. The driver needs to be updated tocom.mysql.cj.jdbc.MysqlDataSource
.I don't know exactly at which version of
mysql-connector-java
this change has been made. But I believe, it's a while ago and at least any version that supports Java 11 requires the new class. So it should be safe to update that in the example file unconditionally.
