I'm trying to connect MySQL database to weblogic so that I can use it in my project, I'm very new to this, anyway, I have created a data-source, I selected MySQL as a database type > I put my database name, host: localhost, port:3306, database username, and password, driver class name: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver when ever I test connection it gives: Cannot load driver: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver I downloaded J-connector I have put it in:

C:\Oracle\Middleware\wlserver_10.3\server\ext\jdbc\mysql

But it's not working!

Is it required to use WebLogic 11g in your project? - Bruno Borges
Normally, you don't need to add any driver other than one that came with a fresh install. Did you want to use any other version of the driver? Also are you getting the error while just defining the Data Source on the Weblogic Console? - Gökhan Çoban

What version of mysql are you using? If it is version 8 of mysql you must update the driver in the Weblogic. In this link https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/ luck
