java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver in Jasper Reports Server

Question

I have installed MySQL's JDBC driver both by MySQL installer and manually downloading from MySQL's web site but still I get this error in JasperReports Server 6.2.0:

com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver at org.apache.catalina.loader.WebappClassLoaderBase.loadClass(WebappClassLoaderBase.java:1293)

How can I add the com.mysql.jdbc.Driver?

There ( http://www.example.com:8080/jasperserver ) was database connection. I had to edit it. It asked me to upload the JDBC.

I think you should put the driver in tomcat lib folder "$CATALINA_HOME/lib".
