PlayerLogger doesn't support mysql-connector 8.x
GhostNaix opened this issue ยท 4 comments
I'm currently running version forgeessentials-1.7.10-1.4.6.1364-server which is the latest version on the jenkins server
When I try to configure PlayerLogger to log to MySQL for an external tool the server crashes with the following error:
[03:22:27] [Server thread/ERROR] [FML/]: Caught exception from ForgeEssentials
org.hibernate.service.spi.ServiceException: Unable to create requested service [org.hibernate.engine.jdbc.env.spi.JdbcEnvironment]
I've install the MySQL Connector/J for Java still no change
Is MySQL no longer supported ?
Is this incorrect configuration ?
Here are the log files
MySQL has not been touched in a long time. The MySQL provider was never recommended and I have a hunch it was never finished. I will spend some cycles investigating it later.
At this point, I am assuming you have moved on from FE. I am still providing an update so others who run into this issue on 1.7.10 can resolve their issue.
However, my initial investigation have revealed this to be a mysql connector 8 error. A PR a while back for 1.7.10 updated the mysql connector to 8.x but it appears that playerlogger is not compatable with 8.x. This is only in 1.7.10.... 1.12 is still on 5.1.22. I recommend going to ./ForgeEssentials/lib and replacing the 8.x jar with the 5.1.22 jar. You should be able to find it inside of the libaries.zip file in the Forge Essentials 1.12 server jar file.
A later task will be endeavored to update playerlogger to 8.x. I think this will require updating hibernate so it will be a bit involved.
Yeah sorry, I have moved on from Forge Essentials long ago so I cannot provide any further Information or testing.
Apologies for the inconvenience and lack of response
