Description

On Ubuntu Server 13.10, installing Cloudstack 4.3 as specified in the documentation does not produce a runnable system. Cloudstack-management dies shortly after it starts with a stack trace indicating that it can't find the MySQL driver (trace listed below.)

This continues to occur after running
apt-get install libmysql-java
cp /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java-5.1.25.jar /usr/share/cloudstack-management/webapps/client/WEB-INF/lib/
reboot
