Tomcat 8, HikariCP, Hibernate and MySQL

Using a Connection Pool

I am using a Hikari Connection Pool to interact with the MySQl database backend in a Java based Web project. I decided to upgrade the library versions to their most recent stable versions and now I cannot connect to the database anymore.

Dependencies

I use the following Maven dependencies: 

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.zaxxer</groupId>
    <artifactId>HikariCP</artifactId>
    <version>2.4.5</version>
    <scope>compile</scope>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-hikaricp</artifactId>
    <version>5.2.0.Final</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
    <version>5.2.0.Final</version>

</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
    <artifactId>hibernate-envers</artifactId>
    <version>5.2.0.Final</version>
</dependency>

<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
    <version>6.0.2</version>
</dependency>

Hibernate

The project compiles fine, no libraries are missing. This is my hibernate configuration file:

<session-factory>

    <property name="hibernate.connection.provider_class">com.zaxxer.hikari.hibernate.HikariConnectionProvider</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSourceClassName">com.mysql.jdbc.jdbc2.optional.MysqlDataSource</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.url">jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/CitationUserDB?useSSL=false</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.user">dbUser</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.password">vErYsEcReT</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.cachePrepStmts">true</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.prepStmtCacheSize">250</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.prepStmtCacheSqlLimit">2048</property>
    <property name="hibernate.hikari.dataSource.useServerPrepStmts">true</property>

    <mapping class="Database.Authentication.User"/>

</session-factory>

SessionFactory

I use this Hibernate Util class to get the session object. 

import org.hibernate.SessionFactory;
import org.hibernate.boot.registry.StandardServiceRegistryBuilder;
import org.hibernate.cfg.Configuration;
import org.hibernate.service.ServiceRegistry;

/**
 * Hibernate session management
 */
public class HibernateUtilUserAuthentication {
    private static SessionFactory sessionFactory;

    public static SessionFactory getSessionFactory() {
        if (sessionFactory == null) {
            // loads configuration and mappings
            Configuration configuration = new Configuration().configure("hibernate.userauthentication.cfg.xml");
            ServiceRegistry serviceRegistry
                    = new StandardServiceRegistryBuilder()
                    .applySettings(configuration.getProperties()).build();

            // builds a session factory from the service registry
            sessionFactory = configuration.buildSessionFactory(serviceRegistry);
        }

        return sessionFactory;
    }
}

Error

The following error is thrown, when the first database access happens in the source code. There seems to be a problem with the claspath, but all required libraries are there and I can see them in IntelliJ.

But the library is there: enter image description here

It is copied to Tomcat during deployment:

./webapps/Testapplication/WEB-INF/lib/mysql-connector-java-6.0.2.jar

I have no idea why the JDBC MySQL driver cannot be found. Any help is really appreciated. Thank you in advance!

The package structure has changed in mysql-connector-java-6. Switch to mysql-connector-java-5.x

<!-- http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/mysql/mysql-connector-java -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.39</version>
</dependency>
