DriverManager.getConnection error java.sql.SQLException: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.math.BigInteger cannot be cast to java.lang.Long [duplicate]

Question

I was tryng to learn how to connect to mysql from an desktop java application, but there is something wrong with the connection method Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");

When I call it returns this expection :

java.sql.SQLException: java.lang.ClassCastException: java.math.BigInteger cannot be cast to java.lang.Long

I reinstalled the J/connection (I couldn't download it alone, it comes with the other drivers in the installer, I added the driver as a library and i Tried using the com.mysql.jdbc.Connection, and the java.sql.Connection class. The two of them throw the same error. I looked for other similar questions and none of those solved the problem, what else can I do? where can I download an old J/Connection driver ? should I reinstall the whole netbeans? I wonder... these are my methods with the unnecessary code commented:

public static final String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/escuela";
public static final String USERNAME = "root";
public static final String PASSWORD = "123";

public static Connection getConnection(){
   Connection con = null;
    try{
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
        con = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, USERNAME, PASSWORD); //here 
     fails.
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Conexion exitosa.");
    }
    catch(Exception e){
     e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return con;
}

private void btnConectarActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {                                            
     Connection con = getConnection(); //I call the connection here
//        Statement st;
//        ResultSet rs;
//        
//         try{
//         st = con.createStatement();
//         rs = st.executeQuery("SELECT * FROM personas");
//        
//         while(rs.next()){
//             JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, rs.getString("nombre") 
//                + " " + rs.getString("telefono"));
//         } 
//       con.close();
//        }
//        catch(Exception e){
//            System.out.println(e);
//        }

}

The whole e.printStackTrace:

What mysql connector did you download, what version of mysql are you running? You haven't needed Class.forName(String) to load the driver since JDBC 4 (Java 6). — Elliott Frisch

Looks like an error in the JDBC driver. You should report it to them. — Andreas

Try to download the latest connector here dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j select platform independent, and dwonload zip file — Cyrille Con Morales

Read the stack trace. This exception was not thrown by the Class.forName() line, which BTW you can remove, as it hasn't been necessary since 2007. It was thrown by DriverManager.getConnection(). — user207421

And if you check the documentation com.mysql.jdbc.Driver has been replace by com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver in the version 5.1+ — Cyrille Con Morales

I finally made it thanks to Cirille Con Morales,thanks a lot for the link and the download instruction. My Netbeans has an old installation of MySql connector driver (5.xxx) I downloaded the (8.0.17) version, added to the global libraries and I hed other issues but digging in google I resolve them, this pats must be changed: I used the driver has an string url :

public static final String DRIVER = "com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver";

Then an error abour timezine appeared, so to fix this the URL should be modified whith this:

public static final String URL = 
"jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/escuela? 
 useUnicode=true&useJDBCCompliantTimezoneShift
=true&useLegacyDatetimeCode=false&serverTimezone=UTC";

Then I used it like this:

public static Connection getConnection(){
   Connection con = null;

    try{
        Class.forName(DRIVER);
        con = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, USERNAME, PASSWORD);
        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Conexion exitosa.");
    }
    catch(Exception e){
     e.printStackTrace();
    }
    return con;
}
