It seems that new versions of OpenbravoPOS not just like Ubuntu. I could see that if we try to start the program an error saying the driver could not find the database, regardless of whether I wanted to use MySQL or Derby.

The error that appears is the following:

Database Manager message
DNG_00_0000
Danger: Can not connect to database. Database driver not found.
com.openbravo.basic.BasicException:
Can not connect to database. Database driver not found.

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException:
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
