I have this dependency:

<dependency>
            <groupId>com.mysql</groupId>
            <artifactId>jdbc</artifactId>
            <version>5.1.43</version>
        </dependency>

If you can convert this gradle to maven, I got it to work with

compile group: 'mysql', name: 'mysql-connector-java', version: '8.0.7-dmr'

[aaronfox]

I'm not quite sure how to do that without swapping to grade unfortunately

[gildor]

@aaronfox just add it to your dependencies:
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.41</version>
</dependency>

[aaronfox]

Okay, I'll try that when I get home from work. Cheers

Using this, it causes the same exception

[gildor]

It’s really strange. Do you have access to com.mysql.jdbc.Driver() in runtime?

[aaronfox]

yup

[aaronfox]

This beforehand compiles

Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver")
 com.mysql.jdbc.Driver()

but it still throws an exception when it attempts to perform a transaction stating there is no suitable driver when there clearly is
