MYSQL Driver
Hi,
I'm having an issue loading the MYSQL driver. I'm following this tutorial: http://community.screen-scraper.com/writing_extracted_data_to_a_database and I'm having problems with step 1, "To start, download the appropriate JDBC Driver connector Jar file for your particular database and place it in the lib/ext folder where screen-scraper is installed."
I've downloaded the file, but I'm not sure which part to put in the ext folder. I've tried it multiple ways. Could someone let me know exactly what I'm supposed to put there? Thanks.
An additional note: When I go
An additional note:
When I go here, http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/, I only see an option to download a .zip, not a .jar.
Found the jar
Ok, so I found the jar in the zip file. I put that into both /lib/ext and /jre/lib/ext since it wasn't clear which it was supposed to be. It still didn't work. Is there something else I should be doing?
The driver belongs in
The driver belongs in "screen-scraper x edition/lib/ext/" and once there you need to restart screen scraper. Once that's done, how are you trying to invoke it?
D'oh!
I feel silly. I just didn't restart. Everything is working fine now.
