As said in the title of the question, JDBC seems to work only in test classes, can't explain why.
public static Connection getConnection()
{
try {
String connectionString = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/" + database + "?" +
"user=" + sqlUser + "&password=" + sqlPassword;
return DriverManager.getConnection(connectionString);
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(ConnectionLoader.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
}
return null;
}
The following test passes:
assertNotNull("Connection must not be null.", ConnectionLoader.getConnection());
But when debugging the project fails with SQLException saying no suitable driver found.
Here's a screenshot of my project in Netbeans, as you can see I included the mysql jar in the libraries.
Am I missing something?
You need to load MySQL driver.
try{
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://x.x.x.x:3306/databasename", "username", "password");
...
}catch(Exception ex){
ex.printStackTrace();
}

I'm trying using MS JDBC to connect to my SQL Server database but encountering this error.
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver
Here is my code
#SuppressLint("NewAPI")
public void Connect() throws Exception {
StrictMode.ThreadPolicy policy = new StrictMode.ThreadPolicy.Builder().permitAll().build();
StrictMode.setThreadPolicy(policy);
connection = null;
String S_url = null;
String driver = null;
try {
DriverManager.registerDriver(new com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver());
driver = "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver";
Class.forName(driver);
S_url = "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://" + ip + ";"
+ "databaseName=" + db + ";user=" + un + ";password="
+ pass + ";";
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(S_url);
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
I already added a .jar file into my project
Jar file
And set a dependency

Really appreciate your help and sorry if my English bother you, it's not my native language
Remove the jtds: from your JDBC URL that you assign to S_url. You register a Microsoft driver, but use the URL format of a jTDS driver.
I started working today with the JDBC Microsoft SQL Server driver and I am always getting the error that no suitable driver has been found.
Here is my code:
/*
try {
Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
*/
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://" + HOST + ":" + PORT + ";databaseName=" + DATABASE;
try {
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.err.println("[SQL] Error in connection: " + url);
e.printStackTrace();
}
I also used Class.forName(...), but since it will be running on other people's servers I don't want to use this option (This option also did not work). Help would be appreciated, have a nice weekend
I can connect from plsql to database using tns file
Now I want to connect to the database from my Java using JDBC.
What I tried:
I search google and I find that I have to using this connection String:
"jdbc:oracle:thin:#//host:port))/tnsfile)";
My computer name is myPC
The port that is written in the tnsfile is 5151
So I tried this connection String
"jdbc:oracle:thin:#//myPC:5151))/tnsfile"
but I got this Exception
java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: IO ERROR: SO Exception was generated
What am I doing wrong?
How to connect my JDBC to the database using tns file?
You have to set a property named oracle.net.tns_admin to point to the location of the folder containing your tnsnames.ora file. Then you specify the entry from that file after the # sign in your DB URL. Check example below. You can find more information here: Data sources and URLs - Oracle Documentation
import java.sql.*;
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin", "C:/app/product/11.2.0/client_1/NETWORK/ADMIN");
String dbURL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:#ENTRY_FROM_TNSNAMES";
Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
Connection conn = null;
Statement stmt = null;
try {
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(dbURL, "your_user_name", "your_password");
System.out.println("Connection established");
stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT dummy FROM dual");
if (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
}
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
finally {
if (stmt != null) try { stmt.close(); } catch (Exception e) {}
if (conn != null) try { conn.close(); } catch (Exception e) {}
}
}
}
Example entry from tnsnames.ora file:
my_net_service_name=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(some address here))
(CONNECT_DATA=
(SID=some_SID_name)))
Where my_net_service_name string is what you have to subsitite for ENTRY_FROM_TNSNAMES from my Java example.
Rather than hard code the path to tnsnames.ora, better to find it from the environment:
public static void setTnsAdmin() {
String tnsAdmin = System.getenv("TNS_ADMIN");
if (tnsAdmin == null) {
String oracleHome = System.getenv("ORACLE_HOME");
if (oracleHome == null) {
return; //failed to find any useful env variables
}
tnsAdmin = oracleHome + File.separatorChar + "network" + File.separatorChar + "admin";
}
System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin", tnsAdmin);
}
Try the following:
System.setProperty("oracle.net.tns_admin", PATH_TO_TNSNAMES.ORA);
Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
dbUrl = "jdbc:oracle:thin:#(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST="+IPHOST+")(PORT="+PORT+"))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER = DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME="+DBNAME+")))"
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(dbUrl, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
Be sure to have the latest version of ojdbc.jar
the last days I was trying to learn how to access mySQL databases via Java.
I am able to load the driver and get a connection to the database ( at least I think so, since I don't get an exception there..)
the code is:
import java.sql.*;
public class test
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
System.out.println("driver loaded...");
}
catch(ClassNotFoundException e){
System.out.println("Error in loading the driver..."+e);
System.exit(0);
}
try
{
Connection dbConnection= DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:test","root","password");
System.out.println("Connection successful...");
Statement stmt = dbConntection.createStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate("create table Accounts ( name char(20) )");
}
catch(SQLException e)
{
System.out.println("database-ConnectionError: "+e);
System.exit(0);
}
}
}
When I execute it, it says:
driver loaded... Connection successful...
database-ConnectionError: java.sql.SQLException: [MySQL][ODBC 5.2(w) Driver][mysqld-5.5.31]No database selected
I really don't know the problem, because I thought the database is selected during the "getConnection" process....
I tried to select a database by adding this line:
stmt.executeUpdate("use test;");
after creating the Statement.
unfortunately it didn't work because I got another exception which said I should check on the syntax. I don't understand that either because in my commandline it works just fine...
I don't know if it is possible to use these type of commands via Java so if it isn't, please forgive my mistake.
I hope you can help me and I didn't miss the solution during my own search!
Already Thanks to all who reply and use their time on my problems!
ps. If I forgot to point out some important infos ( I don't think i did) please ask:)
edit: I also tried to create a new database during runtime
stmt.executeUpdate("CREATE DATABASE test;");
this actually works, but the database won't be selected either...
Before you can add a table, you first have to select a database.
you can create a new database with:
CREATE DATABASE database_name
you can connect to a specific database with:
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/databasename";
String username = "test";
String password = "test";
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username, password);
Firstly, I am considering my answer to show you another better way for connection with MySQL Database, it's much easier and less nu-expected Exception(s).
You need to do some steps:
Download Connector/J and add it to your class path(if you are using an IDE there is add the .jar to the library, or there is many tuts on YouTube).
Create your database in your MySQL program.
See this example below example below I made for you demonstrates how to connect and execute queries on MySQL :
import java.sql.*;
public class MySqlConnection {
private String MYSQL_DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
private String MYSQL_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test";
private Connection con;
private Statement st;
private ResultSet rs;
public MySqlConnection() {
try {
Class.forName(MYSQL_DRIVER);
System.out.println("Class Loaded....");
con = DriverManager.getConnection(MYSQL_URL,"","");
System.out.println("Connected to the database....");
st = con.createStatement();
int c =st.executeUpdate("CREATE TABLE Accounts (Name VARCHAR(30))");
System.out.println("Table have been created.");
System.out.println(c+" Row(s) have been affected");
con.close();
} catch(ClassNotFoundException ex) {
System.out.println("ClassNotFoundException:\n"+ex.toString());
ex.printStackTrace();
} catch(SQLException ex) {
System.out.println("SQLException:\n"+ex.toString());
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
public static void main(String...args) {
new MySqlConnection();
}
}
Here is your updated example, which works for me.
public static void main(String[] args) throws InstantiationException,
IllegalAccessException {
try {
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
System.out.println("driver loaded...");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("Error in loading the driver..." + e);
System.exit(0);
}
try {
Connection dbConnection = DriverManager
.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/test?user=root&password=password");
System.out.println("Connection successful...");
Statement stmt = dbConnection.createStatement();
stmt.executeUpdate("create table Accounts ( name char(20) )");
} catch (SQLException e) {
System.out.println("database-ConnectionError: " + e);
System.exit(0);
}
}
Make sure you have added a proper mysql-connector to your build path. I used the: mysql-connector-java-5.1.24-bin.jar
static final String DB_URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sys";
Use database name in the URL.
It worked for me
I'm working on a web project and I recently installed postgres 9.1.1
The postgresql server is up and running. I can connect via psql as usual and everything is loaded and properly saved from a dump of the db I made from 8.5.
So I also downloaded the JDBC4 driver for 9.1 postgres version here:
http://jdbc.postgresql.org/download/postgresql-jdbc-9.1-901.src.tar.gz
I added it to the java build path using the project properties via eclipse.
This is the code I use to provide db connection to other classes (i.e. it's a singleton, I get a new connection only if the existing is either closed or null, from one object at a time only)
public abstract class DBConnection {
private static Connection connection = null;
public static void connect() {
try {
if (connection == null) {
String host = "127.0.0.1";
String database = "xxxxx";
String username = "xxxxx";
String password = "xxxxx";
String url = "jdbc:postgresql://" + host + "/" + database;
String driverJDBC = "org.postgresql.Driver";
Class.forName(driverJDBC);
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url, username,
password); //line firing the class not found exception
} else if (connection.isClosed()) {
connection = null;
connect();
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace(System.err);
}
}
public static void disconnect() {
if (connection != null) {
try {
connection.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
Logger.getLogger(DBConnection.class.getName()).log(
Level.SEVERE, null, e);
}
}
}
public static Connection getConnection() {
try {
if (connection != null && !connection.isClosed()) {
return connection;
} else {
connect();
return connection;
}
} catch (SQLException e) {
Logger.getLogger(DBConnection.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE,
null, e);
return null;
}
}
#Override
public void finalize() {
if (connection != null) {
try {
connection.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
Logger.getLogger(DBConnection.class.getName()).log(
Level.SEVERE, null, e);
}
}
}
}
As I wrote in the title when I run the project and a class asks for a connection to this class I always get a Class Not Found Exception, Since it apparently can't load the org.postgresql.Driver.class The driver is located in a subfolder of the project ~/lib/org.postgresql-9.1-901.jdbc4.jar and as I said added to the build path via eclipse project properties.
I'm also providing a sample query to let see the usual behavior of my classes to access the DBConnection:
public static final User validateUserCredentials(String id, String pswd) {
Connection connection = DBConnection.getConnection();
Logger.getLogger(Credentials.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, (connection!=null)?"connection not null":"connection null");
Statement stmt = null;
Logger.getLogger(Home.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, "validating credentials for user: username : " + id + " password : " + pswd);
String sql = "Select * from fuser where id = '" + id + "'";
ResultSet resultset = null;
try {
stmt = connection.createStatement();
resultset = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
Logger.getLogger(Credentials.class.getName())
.log(Level.SEVERE, sql);
resultset.next();
String password = resultset.getString("pswd");
if (pswd.equals(password))
return new User(id, pswd);
} catch (SQLException ex) {
Logger.getLogger(Credentials.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE,
null, ex);
} finally {
if (stmt != null)
stmt = null;
if (resultset != null)
resultset = null;
if (connection != null) {
try {
connection.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
}
connection = null;
}
}
return null;
}
I'm working on a web project and I recently installed postgres 9.1.1
...
I added it to the java build path using the project properties via eclipse.
That's the wrong way. That JAR has to be dropped straight in /WEB-INF/lib folder of the web project without fiddling with the Build Path in the project's properties. That folder is standard part of webapp's runtime classpath.
Unrelated to the concrete problem: you've a major design flaw in your DBConnection class. You've declared Connection as static which essentially makes your connection not threadsafe. Use a connection pool and never assign the Connection (nor Statement nor ResultSet) as a class/instance variable. They should be created and closed in the very same try-finally block as where you're executing the query. Further you've there also a SQL injection hole. Use PreparedStatement instead of concatenating user-controlled variables in the SQL string.

Add this dependency in your pom:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.postgresql</groupId>
<artifactId>postgresql</artifactId>
<version>9.4-1203-jdbc4</version>
</dependency>
The first thing I'd do is unpack the jar and confirm that the driver is really in there as org.postgresql.Driver. I notice when looking at jarfinder and related sites that there isn't a Postgres 9.x jar containing org.postgresql.Driver.
