Assuming that you already have MySQL installed,

1. Install the connector driver. : yum install libmysql-java

2. Then make sure that the classpath is set.

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

   If you want to set this for all users, you should modify the /etc/environment instead

If you are using Eclipse, you can also do this by going through the following steps:

• Select Project Properties > Java Build Path
• Select Libries tab
• Click Add External Jars
• Choose the jar file, in this case mysql-connector-java.jar
