Hello,

I try to install in an Ubuntu 12.04 a Tomcat7 with mySQL JDBC. So I 
have run apt-install for tomcat and libmysql-java, but I get always:

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

in my logs. In the catalina.properties the loading pathes are defined with

common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,/var/lib/tomcat7/common/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/common/*.jar 

server.loader=/var/lib/tomcat7/server/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/server/*.jar
shared.loader=/var/lib/tomcat7/shared/classes,/var/lib/tomcat7/shared/*.jar

The JDBC mySQL Jar is stored under /usr/share/java with twi symlinks, I 
have tried to create a symlink from Tomcats lib dir 
(/usr/share/tomcat7/lib) to ../../java/mysql.jar
but the mySQL is also not loaded.
The CATALINA_HOME is set to /usr/share/tomcat7 and the CATALINA_BASE is 
/var/lib/tomcat7, so imho it should be worked

I try to run http://www.icescrum.org/ with mySQL support.

Can anybody help me please with a useful idea to create a working mySQL 
JDBC driver in my Tomcat7?

Thanks a lot

Phil
