I'm new to this tool and I'm trying to create MySQL connection to a database but when I press the 'Test' button it apears this message:
Error connecting to database [MySQL (_configuracionesEF)] :org.pentaho.di.core.exception.KettleDatabaseException:

Rigth now I'm just running the application file that comes inside of the folder from the download from pentaho's webpage.
What I've done until now
I've downloaded the lastest version of the MySQL Driver from MySQL's webpage.
I've unzipped the file and copied the mysql-connector-java-5.1.43-bin.jar from the driver download and tried pasting into the lib folder and Data Service JDBC Driver folder.
My question is this:
Where should I paste this driver to connect properly?
回答1:
For the new version of the MySQL JDBC driver (in my case version 8.1), the name of the main driver class has changed. Even if you download the driver and restart spoon, still the MySQL connector of Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) looks for the wrong class name.
The workaround would be to use the "Generic database" connection type in PDI and add the new class name by hand. The typical connection details would be:
Dialect: MySQL
Custom connection URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name
Custom driver class name: com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
Reference: https://jira.pentaho.com/browse/PDI-17341
回答2:
I got to resolve the error.
I'm ashamed, but it just needed to close and open the app again.
I just want to keep it here just if somebody doesn't get to resolve this problem and find this question.
回答3:
- download Mysql connector from here: connector
- unzip the file
- copy only the two *.jar files into data-integration/lib/
- restart Pentaho
- go to: Database Connection -> choose MySql -> edit your connection info -> test connection.
this resolved my issue.
