Hello,
I'm new with Tomcat, so I hope for some help. I try to run www.icescrum.org on
my Tomcat 7 on Ubuntu 12.04 with OpenJDK.
I have installed Tomcat with apt-get and also I have installed the
libmysql-java package. On starting Tomcat it reports on
a stacktrace log, that the mySQL connector is not found
(java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").
So I have try to create a symlink in Tomcats lib dir to the jar file and try to
modify the properties of the search paths:
common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,/var/lib/tomcat7/common/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/common/*.jar
server.loader=/var/lib/tomcat7/server/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/server/*.jar
shared.loader=/var/lib/tomcat7/shared/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/shared/*.jar
The JDBC mySQL Jar is stored under /usr/share/java with two symlinks, I have
tried to create a symlink from Tomcats lib dir (/usr/share/tomcat7/lib) to
../../java/mysql.jar
but the mySQL is also not loaded. The CATALINA_HOME is set to
/usr/share/tomcat7 and the CATALINA_BASE is /var/lib/tomcat7, so imho it should
be worked
How can I create a working IceScrum with mySQL and a shared mySQL connector?
Thanks a lot
Phil
