Mysql mysql connector-java 8.0 28

A database connector for MySQL servers that enables developers to access content in MySQL databases from within their Java applications

What's new in MySQL Connector/J 8.0.30:

  • Functionality Added or Changed:
  • X DevAPI: For document-modifying methods that are chained after modify() and take a document path expression as one of its arguments (that is, set(), unset(), arrayInsert(), arrayAppend()), Connector/J now throws an error when the document path is empty or is a null string. (Bug #34259416)

Read the full changelog

MySQL Connector/J is a database driver designed to help developers access the MySQL databases from the applications created with Java. The driver fully supports the MySQL database functionality and enables other applications to connect to the database.

The connector uses a JDBC driver for retrieving information from the database tables and for other transactions. It does not rely on the MySQL client libraries.

Thanks to MySQL Connector/J, Java-based applications can easily connect to a MySQL server instance and retrieve information regarding containing tables and entries. It is particularly useful for database editing tools and viewers.

MySQL Connector/J enables Java-based applications that work with MySQL databases to establish the connection and run queries against the database, call stored procedures, manage input and output parameters, extracting and retrieving data from the database columns, and the list of scenarios does not end here.

Additionally, the JDBC driver can be used with Tomcat, JBoss, Spring, GlassFish or other similar servers. Developers can create connection pools and JDBC data resources to use for their Java application.

MySQL Connector/J is not difficult to configure and facilitates the connection between Java-based applications and MySQL databases. Generally, one cannot work with a MySQL database inside a Java app without it.

Using the MySQL Connector/J (JDBC driver)

RapidMiner Server comes bundled with three database drivers:

  • MSSQL
  • Oracle
  • PostgreSQL

If you want to connect to MySQL databases, you need to manually download and configure the MySQL Connector/J.

This article will walk you through how to:

  • Install the MySQL JDBC Connector/J

Install the MySQL JDBC Connector/J

Due to a problem with MySQL JDBC Connector/J versions greater than 8.0.22, ensure to use at most version 8.0.22.

Due to a problem with latest MySQL JDBC driver (8.0.11) the hibernate table update will not work with more than one RapidMiner Server schema per database user. If you want to store multiple RapidMiner Server schemas on the same MySQL Server please create a new user per schema.

  1. Download the MySQL Connector/J from the official website. Currently the recommended version is 8.0.11.

  2. The connector itself is a single file named mysql-connector-java-X.X.XX-bin.jar. Extract this file from the downloaded archive to the data/jdbc folder in your RapidMiner Server Installer folder.

  3. In the database configuration step select MySQL as database system and provide the file path of the connector extracted in the second step as Jar file.

  4. Make sure that the JDBC driver class is set to com.mysql.jdbc.Driver.

  5. Complete the installation.
