I don't have any idea where to place the "mysql-connector-java-3.1.14-bin.jar" file in ubuntu 9.10.
yesterday I did this in xp successfully by placing this jar file at following locations

Java\jre1.6.0_06\lib
Java\jre1.6.0_06\lib\ext

If someone has any idea that where would it be in ubuntu 9.10 please tell me.

Moreover, the jar file which I am using for xp; cab be used for ubuntu 9.10 or not if not kindly help me to get this too?

I am using NetbeansIDE 6.7.1 (installed from Software Center), MySQL 5 Server (sudo apt-get install mysql-server) is this enough?

Thanks & Regards

The "same" location should work, assuming you use the same original JRE on ubuntu. Do you use something different? (like one of the "free" JREs installable in ubuntu or gcj) -- then there is maybe a package in the apt repository for the mysql bindings. But I'd suggest to go with the original...
