Could not find driver with class name: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

IT Admin_086ua2

I'm unable to get past the step to test the connection to the mysql database I have configured. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04

I have the mysql connector .jar file saved in my install directory of /opt/atlassian/jira/lib/ as below in my screen capture in PuTTY

I've tried using both the unzip and jar commands in case the file was still compressed.

Ah, hang on, sorry, I really should have spotted this earlier.

You have listed the content of /lib. Not <JIRA install>/lib. The driver needs to be in there, not the operating system /lib directory.

Is it owned by the same user (jiraadmin)?

jiradmin is the root account

That's not what Jobin asked, he was asking you to check file ownership and permissions. An "ls -l" in that directory will tell us what we need (and capture it plain text, there's no need for screenshots) (p.s. No, it's not, root is the root account)
