指定驱动程序和连接详细信息中缺少 Eclipse MySQL 驱动程序

Question

I'm trying to make a connection to my Database in MySQL. When I go to Database Source Explorer, and there to Database Connection right click and new connection, I click on MySQL, New Driver Definition and nothing… drivers are missing. I use MySQL with Connector/J, Eclipse IDE 2019‑09, MySQL Workbench 8.0. I have Data Tools installed.

Please, somebody, help me. I'm searching for hours and can't find any solution, that works for me.

Answer 1

This might be a bit too late, but I had the same issue as yours, and a simple fix worked for me. I just had to expand the window, and the list was visible. The list was hidden because of the small window size. Sounds odd, but definitely did work for me.

Answer 2

How to add a JDBC driver

1. First select the version of your database:

2. second click on JAR List field:

3. and:

4. remove the default driver

and finally click OK ! this should work fine
