JBoss and MySQL New missing/unsatisfied dependencies

Question

I'm a Java and JBoss newbie struggling to get JBoss AS 7.0.1 working with mySQL 5.5 on my Windows 10 machine.
I get the following error when I start JBoss:-

16:19:39,480 INFO [org.jboss.as.controller] (Controller Boot Thread) Service status report New missing/unsatisfied dependencies: service jboss.jdbc-driver.com_mysql (missing)

This is what I've done

1 created directory jboss-as-7.0.1.Final\\modules\\com\\mysql\\main

2 Files there: module.xml and mysql-connector-java-5.1.26-bin.jar (downloaded from official mysql site)

3 Content of module.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<module xmlns="urn:jboss:module:1.0" name="com.mysql" slot="main">
  <resources>
    <resource-root path="mysql-connector-java-5.1.39-bin.jar"/>
  </resources>
  <dependencies>
    <module name="javax.api"/>
  </dependencies>
</module>

4 Relevant parts from jboss-as-7.0.1.Final\\standalone\\configuration\\standalone.xml:

Answer 1

You have mentioned the mysql jar file name in modules as

mysql-connector-java-5.1.26-bin.jar

But in your module.xml it is incorrectly configured as

mysql-connector-java-5.1.39-bin.jar

Pls Correct your module.xml

Your driver configured in datasource with name

        <driver>
            com.mysql
        </driver>

Update that to your correct driver name as

            <driver>
                mysql
            </driver>

Answer 2

Thanks for the responses.

Turns out the mysql-connector-java-5.1.39-bin.jar file was corrupt, the java.sql.Driver file inside it was empty. Not sure how that happened!
