No Suitable Driver found for JDBC-Postgresql - postgresql

Question

I am building a project using "Maven".
In the Pom.xml i have added dependency for Postgresql and it is downloaded (as required) and is present in the Project's libs/ folder.
Now i have made a connection to it in my java file as follows :
static String userid="postgres", password = "myPassword";
static String url = "jdbc:postgresql:coredb_jfeed6";
static Connection con;
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,userid, password);
Where "coredb_jfeed6" is my database name.
There is no compile time error. But at runtime it produces the following error :
Exception stack is:
1. No suitable driver found for jdbc:postgresql:coredb_jfeed6 (java.sql.SQLException)
java.sql.DriverManager:640 (null)
Could not get JDBC Connection; nested exception is java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:postgresql:coredb_jfeed6
(org.springframework.jdbc.CannotGetJdbcConnectionException)
org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DataSourceUtils:80 (null)
Root Exception stack trace:
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:postgresql:coredb_jfeed6
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:640)
at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:169)
at org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource.getConnectionFromDriverManager(DriverManagerDataSource.java:173)
Could anyone please help me regarding this.?

Answer 1

Ok. I figured it out.
Its a BUG in Mule 3.1.2.
Its like "When an external library is to be searched, then Mule looks it in projects/lib folder. But this does not hold true for All the Database related Libraries like postgresql library" . So we need to put it in mule/user/lib folder for it to Work Correctly.
