Comment 1 Mauro Matteo Cascella 2024-01-02 14:49:57 UTC

Created mysql-connector-java tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 2256475]

Comment 2 Mauro Matteo Cascella 2024-01-02 14:50:39 UTC

The package mariadb Java client is available in Red Hat Software Collections. It can be installed this way:

  # yum-config-manager --enable rhel-server-rhscl-7-rpms
  # yum install rh-mariadb105-mariadb-java-client

This JDBC driver works fine with both MariaDB and MySQL servers. We recommend use of mariadb-java-client over mysql-java-connector where possible.

Comment 6 errata-xmlrpc 2024-02-12 15:24:41 UTC

This issue has been addressed in the following products:

  Red Hat build of Quarkus 3.2.10
