Connect Java with Mysql

If you have problems with CLASSPATH java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver, this might work:

1.-
install the java - mysql connector:
sudo apt-get install libmysql-java

2.-
gedit ~/.bashrc

3.-
add this 2 lines at the end:

CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar
export CLASSPATH

thats it!
