Datavase drivers bundled with wildfire - MySQL

How do I find out which version of MySQL database driver is being used by wildfire?

Is there anyway to easily update it? Is the mysql.jar actually just the Connector/J driver released by MySQL?

I am getting on windows one long running infamous MySQL error which is “communications link failure”. The MySQL forums suggest this is possibly related to bugs in older versions of the driver…but given I don’'t know what version of the driver is used by wildfire this makes things hard to track down.

camclive,

We use the Connector/J drivers from MySQL and generally always keep them up to date with the latest release. If you want to try a different version of the driver, just delete the “lib/mysql.jar” file and put in your own version of the driver.
