title: Can't test connection to mysql using Intellij
body: <p>I'm on OSX Mavericks, running Intellij 12, trying to add a datasource already defined in XML, using the persistence facet.</p>
  
  <p>I can find and select the source fine, but when I try to test the connection I get:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Connection to XXXXX failed: Exception in thread "main"
    java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.mysql.jdbc.Driver   at

  <p>Looks like it's just a classpath problem, but I'm having a surprisingly rough time figuring out what I have to do to get the mysql jar on the classpath.</p>
  
  <p>Every question I've found deals with adding the jar to the classpath of your compiled or testing application, that's NOT what I'm looking for here. My application connects to mysql fine, it's the IntellijIDE that's having problems. Where do I need to add the path to this file?</p>
