I saw similar issue (viewtopic.php?f=72&t=9976&p=35013&hilit=com.mysql.jdbc.SQLError.createSQLException#p35013) I reloaded jar (mysql-connector-java-5.1.24-bin.jar) file and restarted gateway a few times, still getting this same error.

Thanks in advance with any tips.

here are the exported logs

removing the old MySQL connector-jar from the install directory resolved the issue.
