The infamous java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found
(21 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
I am working on a web application where I am creating MSSQLSERVER 2008
database dynamically.
But it's giving me
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=master
My code is:
String dbName = "db1";
try {
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=master";
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
url,
"sa",
"roshan14121987");
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
String sqlquery = "CREATE Database \"" + dbName + "\"; ";
statement.executeUpdate(sqlquery);
statement.close();
connection.close();
} catch(Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
I have added sqljdbc4.jar in lib. I have tried it on both NetBeans (with GlassFish and Tomcat Server) and Eclipse IDE(Tomcat Server).
On the other hand I have tried this with simple desktop application, it's working fine on both IDEs. With sqljdbc4.jar added in lib.
Before calling DriverManager.getConnection() you will have to load the SQLServer JDBC driver. You can do Class.forName("xxxx"); where xxxx is the appropriate driver class (fully qualified name with package prefix).
EDIT: Do this Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver"); to load the driver. Refer MSDN link for more.
Is sqljdbc4.jar in your war file under WEB-INF/lib. This is the alternate location to $CATALINA_HOME/lib and recommended to keep your web application self-contained. Further, if you should ever need to change servers, you need only drop the war into your webapps directory.
You might also need a Class.forName([database class]).newInstance, but that isn't necessary using a JDBC 4.0 driver. Good luck and if you have further problems, do leave a comment.
The error happen in the runtime on Tomcat Server,right? I think you need to make sure your sqljdbc4.jar deploy the in the Server.

I simply want to use SQL Server database in my HTTP Servlet program but my program can't seem to connect to the database. It gives me the following error:
No suitable driver found for
jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=Bookyard;integratedSecurity=true;
This is my connection method.
package practice.bookyard.server.util;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
import java.sql.SQLException;
public class Database {
public static Connection getConnection() {
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://(LocalDb)\\MSSQLLocalDB:1433;databaseName=Bookyard;integratedSecurity=true;";
Connection connection = null;
try {
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
} catch (SQLException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
return connection;
}
}
I had the sever name as localhost:1433 earlier but I changed it to the SQL Server instance name (LocalDb)\\MSSQLLocalDB:1433 but it still seems to pick up the old name.
Also, I am not sure how to provide the right connection string when connecting to SQL Server localdb.
I am using Eclipse for Java EE, Mars 2, and I downloaded Microsoft JDBC drivers for SQL 6.0 from this website.
I ran the installation, unzipped the contents of the resulting folder. Then, I added the sqljdbc42.jar file to the build path as I am targeting JDK 1.8.
UPDATE
Upon Scary Wombat's suggestion, I have also added the path to the sqljdbc42.jar file to my classpath.
However, I still get the same error.
I am pretty confident this is a reflection issue, in that the type loader isn't able to resolve the driver type from my connection string. Which means, the connection string syntax I am using is wrong.
I changed my connection string to read as follows:
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;
instance=(LocalDb)\\MSSQLLocalDB;
databaseName=Bookyard;integratedSecurity=true;";
However, I still not only get the same error but the exception message I receive still has my old connection string. So, clearly, there's also some caching going on, I just don't know where. Who is caching my connection string and how do I refresh / clear that cache?
Could you please tell me how to provide a SQL Server instance name if I am connecting to localdb and not on the main SQL Server instance?
As #ScaryWombat and #JozefChocholacek had hinted, it turned out to be a class path issue. Apparently, you have to copy and paste just the sqljdbc42.jar file, and this file only directly into the WEB-INF\lib folder and not within any sub-folder.
I did that it still gave me that error.
That was because the WEB-INF folder structure, when I viewed it in the Project Explorer, still had the old folder structure. So, I right-clicked on the WEB-INF folder in the Project Explorer and selected the Refresh command.
I also updated my environmental variable CLASSPATH to point it to the WEB-INF folder and that error went away.
you can do like below
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://YOUR PC NAME;instanceName=SQLEXPRESS;DatabaseName=dbname;integratedSecurity=true";
Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
Connection myCon = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
note :however its not necceaary for new version of jdbc driver to load driver class manually using class.forname

Class [org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver] not found. When trying to connect to db
(1 answer)
Closed 7 years ago.
![JAVADB_DRIVER_LABEL library missing][1]
I am trying to connect to a JavaDB through netbeans 8 IDE on Windows 7. i can connect it using the DB manager provided with netbeans in Services panel. But when trying to connect it through my code I get ClassNotFoundException for the org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver class.
I could not run the Apache tomcat server on my machine, so I am Using the Glassfish server 4 that comes with netbeans.
my code to connect to the DB is as follows:
String url = "jdbc:derby://localhost:1527/sample;UID=app;PWD=app";
Class.forName("org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
This similar code worked with SQL server, MS Access.
Please add your jdbc driver to the classpath of your project. It should work.
Currently, the class loader is unable to load your driver class as it does it does not find it in the classpath
Download the version of Apache Derby you need from here. Extract the zip and you should get derbyclient.jar which has the class org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver.
FYI : If your application runs on JDK 1.6 or higher, then you do not need to explicitly load the EmbeddedDriver. In that environment, the driver loads automatically.
You need to add derbyclient.jar to your classpath. You can find this jar in the download package of derby from here. This jar contains your org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver.
For more information, see this answer : where is org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver?

No suitable driver found for 'jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/mysql [duplicate]

Closed 8 years ago.
I'm trying to connect my Java program to a database, but for some reason I'm getting an exception telling me there's No suitable driver found.
This is the code I use to connect:
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
java.sql.Connection connect = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql//localhost:3307/miku");
PreparedStatement statement = connect.prepareStatement("SELECT * FROM users");
ResultSet result = statement.executeQuery();
Does anyone see what the problem is?
You need to add MySQL connector driver jar. Download it from here and add it to your classpath.
PS : If you are using Java 7 you don't even have to write Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");. it will automatically be loaded from the classpath. So just add your driver jar file to the classpath.
Just add mysql connector jar. If you using Netbeans right click on the Libraries folder on project and then add library. There is library called MySql JDBC Driver and add it.
I have to define a new Driver in the Netbeans "Services" Tab
Services->Databases->Drivers->new Driver...
because I want use the "Entity Classes from Database"-Wizard in context with UCanAccess.
1st step: "new Driver" does work (only declaration ;-) )
Driver File(s): f:\WorkspaceNetbeans\MSAccessDB\lib\UCanAccess-2.0.4-bin\ucanaccess-2.0.4.jar
Driver Class: net.ucanaccess.jdbc.UcanaccessDriver
Name:msaccess
2nd step: "Connect using..."
JDBC URL: jdbc:ucanaccess://F:/WorkspaceNetbeans/MSAccessDB/data/Datenbank2.accdb
"User Name" and "Password" leave blank
The "Test Connection"-Button results in Error Message:
Cannot establish a connection to
jdbc:ucanaccess://F:\WorkspaceNetbeans\MSAccessDB\data\Datenbank2.accdb using
net.ucanaccess.jdbc.UcanaccessDriver (Could not initialize class
net.ucanaccess.jdbc.UcanaccessDriver)
I've got the newest ucanaccess from http://ucanaccess.sourceforge.net/site.html
ucanaccess-2.0.4.jar, commons-lang-2.6.jar, commons-logging-1.0.4.jar, hsqldb.jar, jackcess-2.0.3.jar in the Netbeans Classpath.
The old fashion way to connect via jdbc to ucanaccess works fine.
public static void main(String[] args) throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException {
String connectString = "jdbc:ucanaccess://" + "f:/WorkspaceNetbeans/MSAccessDB/data/Datenbank2.accdb";
Class.forName("net.ucanaccess.jdbc.UcanaccessDriver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(connectString, "", "");
conn.createStatement().execute("CREATE TABLE example1 (id COUNTER PRIMARY KEY,descr text(400), number numeric(12,3), date0 datetime) ");
}
The same connection string also works fine make DBeaver able to connect to the MSAccess db.
My set up:
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit
Microsoft Office 2013
NetBeans IDE 8.0
Java 1.8
The problem is similar to: "Conflict between JT400 and UCanAccess?" Conflict between JT400 and UCanAccess?
but the answers there don't help with my problem.
Any ideas to solve my problem?
UCanAccess 2.0.4.1 has been released, now you can configure UCanAccess as NetBeans service.
As explained in the UCanAccess web site (tab 'jdbc client tools') you have to:
-in the field Driver File(s), add ucanaccess.jar and all dependencies. I've upgraded the commons-logging in the UCanAccess distribution to the 1.1.1, so you can use that jar with NetBeans8.
-use the following pattern for the jdbc url:
jdbc:ucanaccess://;showschema=true
Showschema connection property must be setted to true.
I was wrong, it wasn't a tricky task but...
To establish the connection you have to list in the Driver File(s) :
ucanaccess-2.0.4.jar,
commons-lang-2.6.jar,
hsqldb.jar,
jackcess-2.0.3.jar
AND
a different version of commons-logging that you can find it in NetBeans:
NetBeans 8.0\ide\modules\org-apache-commons-logging.jar (the commons-logging in the UCanAccess distribution is in conflict with that used by NetBeans)
But unfortunatly, after establishing the connection, you won't be able to execute queries through this IDE, because of a trivial bug in the UcanaccessDatabaseMetadata which hasn't effect with the other IDE jdbc clients I tested (Openoffice, Libreoffice, DBeaver, Squirrel, SQLeo and so on) .
So, to do this, you have to wait some days (I think I'll post a patched Ucanaccess 2.0.4.1 next week). Also, I'll add a note about UCanAccess configuration as NetBeans service in the UCanAccess web site.

CLASSPATH: .%JAVA_HOME%\lib;C:\Program Files\MySQL\Connector J 5.1.29;
How can I can solve this issue?
The Eclipse project doesn't know where you have the drivers for the database. You need to include them under the WEB-INF/lib directory so that they become part of the classpath.
Inside tomcat the external definitions do not apply.
Either deploy the driver jar with your application or add it to the extension library inside Tomcat. I would use the first if Tomcat is not expected to help you with e.g. connection pools or similar
if you are using eclipse then add MySQL jars in projects lib folder.
Yes it worked for me also for the error as
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver.
Copied the sql connector jar file to lib folder of web-inf .
After copying this, the value from html to mysql database is sucessfully inserted
Thanks for the Help
