Tomcat version - apache-tomcat-9.0.0.M19
I am trying to connect my spring application with microsoft sql database.
driverClassName=com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLserverDriver
Maven dependency -
<dependency>
<groupId>com.microsoft.sqlserver</groupId>
<artifactId>mssql-jdbc</artifactId>
<version>6.1.0.jre8</version>
</dependency>
This jar is available in the generated war file and i have also placed the jar in the lib folder of the tomcat but i'm still getting the following error when i try to deploy my application on Tomcat -
Cannot load JDBC driver class 'com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLserverDriver' java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLserverDriver
What am i missing?
