WebLogic--->Cannot load driver: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

i have a problem in creating a data source in weblogic application server 10.3, i'm making a JDBC connection for MySql database , i placed the mysql driver in the lib folder of weblogic \wlserver_10.3\server\lib and in the mysql folder wlserver_10.3\server\ext\jdbc\mysql independently and the error message still arises

Note: there was a two jar files in this folder wlserver_10.3\server\ext\jdbc\mysql and i removed them to avoid any conflict, how i can solve these problem??

Are you using or need a different driver than the one that comes with the weblogic install? If you are you will need to add it to the CLASSPATH in setDomainEnv.sh. Otherwise it will default to using:

\wlserver_10.3\server\lib\mysql-connector-java-commercial-5.x.x-bin.jar

We had to add additional Oracle jars to our CLASSPATH recently for secure connections. You can check into it more here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs100/jdbc_admin/third_party_drivers.html
