Setup JDBC driver in Eclipse java EE

Question

I have problem with setting up jdbc driver. I have searched for solution and tried many things.

Firstly, I tried to put my driver .jar file into WebContent/WEB-INF, got error with Abandoned connection cleanup thread, then I tried to put my .jar file into Library/Tomcat/Lib, but got error:

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

I also tried to put it in my project folder directory and add through build path. The same problem.

What else can I try? What can be the problem? Or what am I doing wrong? Please, help.

Did you try adding the mysql connector to build path as an external jar? — Perdomoff, Dec 02 '15 at 19:00
