You'd use the com.mysql.jdbc.GoogleDriver driver only when running your application on AppEngine.

Is that the case? If so, have you enabled mysql connector/j per https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/cloud-sql/#Java_Connect_to_your_database?

If you're running your application locally, you'd want to use the stock mysql driver.

  • Admittedly a little vague what does that driver do any differently, as opposed to or in addition to what the stock driver (which is used for accessing the cloud database from a local machine) does. – matanster Mar 14 '16 at 23:03
  • Any idea why I'm getting this exception after deployment? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/37644148/java-lang-illegalstateexception-could-not-load-jdbc-driver-class-com-mysql-jdb – Stefan Falk Jun 05 '16 at 16:51
