Creating JDBC Connection in SOAPUI
Solution 1
You could try the following. I had the same problem once and the following was working for me:
- Download the JAR for MySQL again. In my case it happened that the JAR itself was corrupt.
- Copy the JAR to %soapUI Folder%\bin\ext
Solution 2
This worked perfectly fine for me!
Download the mySQL connector tar.gz file from here http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.0.html
Copy it at \SmartBear\SoapUI-Pro-5.0.0\bin\ext path
- Extract it and Restart the application
- Test the connection again! :)
Solution 3
Driver jar must be in ext folder and you also need to register a driver before actually using it. for example to register postgresql driver use :
com.eviware.soapui.support.GroovyUtils.registerJdbcDriver("org.postgresql.Driver")
Solution 4
For me coping mysql jar in lib folder worked <%soapUI%/lib> and not <%soapUI%/bin/ext>
Solution 5
What worked for me:
Copy the ojdbc6.jar
in lib
and ext
folders.

I am new to SOAPUI and have been trying to do query and procedure testing using SOAPUI. I went through the SOAPUI documentation on net however I am not able to establish an connection to my DB.. I have copied the mysql jar in the lib folder of SOAPUI. The exception I get is
Tue Nov 08 12:54:51 IST 2011:ERROR:com.eviware.soapui.support.SoapUIException: Failed to init connection for drvr [com.mysql.jdbc.Driver], connectionString [jdbc:mysql://DB SERVER IP:PORT/DB NAMES?user=username&password=password]
Can anyone please tell me what is wrong... Here are the steps of what I did in SOAPUI for this JDBC thing:-
> 1.New project. > 2. Clock on New Project. > 3.Go to JDBC Connections tab. > 4. Add a new Data Connection. > 5. Specified unique name. > 6. selected driver as mysql:com.jdbc.driver > 7.I can only see to mention host,port and DB. > 8.Mentioned Host,Port and DB.. > 9.Tested the Connection. > 10.Got the above mentioned excpetion...
Please help anyone...
