You must install the JDBC (Java Database Connectivity) driver for MySQL and Oracle to satisfy the requirement for the structure of the Ant target in the build process.
/java/drivers is a hard coded directory that the Rice scripts use as a default directory in which to search for drivers when the installation scripts are running.
Kuali Rice uses the MySQL Connector/J product as the native JDBC driver.
You can obtain the driver from the MySQL website Once you have downloaded the JDBC driver that corresponds to your version of MySQL, copy it to /java/drivers.
Kuali Rice uses the standard Oracle JDBC driver as the native JDBC driver.
You must download the Oracle JDBC from the Oracle website directly due to licensing restrictions. Please refer to the Sources for Required Software section in this Guide to find the download location for this software. Once you have downloaded the JDBC driver, copy it to /java/drivers.
