Description pfuhl 2013-03-09 13:10:07 UTC

Product Version = NetBeans IDE 7.3 (Build 201302132200)
Operating System = Mac OS X version 10.6.8 running on x86_64
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_43
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 20.14-b01-447

I'm using mysql rev: 5.6.10. The distributed  jdbc.connector /Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans 7.3.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/ide/modules/ext/mysql-connector-java-5.1.18-bin.jar does not work. After moving 5.1.20-bin.jar  to the ext folder, I could not enter the new filename with the select driver-box. Workaround was to fake the filename of 5.1.20 to 5.1.18. This works fine, but is not sufficient.

I cannot reproduce on Windows, maybe it's specific to Mac.
Did you try to create a new driver, or to change JAR in the existing driver "MySQL (Connector/J driver)"?

Did you enter the filename manually, or did you select the file with file chooser? Thanks.

Please try to reproduce with the latest NetBeans version.

Thanks
