Docker readme for Confluence has the incorrect /lib directory documented for installing jdbc files

    • Severity 3 - Minor

      Issue Summary

      The Confluence Docker page in https://hub.docker.com/r/atlassian/confluence-server/ indicates that users should be copying the downloaded mysql or oracle jdbc drivers into the

      /opt/atlassian/confluence/lib
      

      directory.
       

       docker cp mysql-connector-java.x.y.z.jar confluence:/opt/atlassian/confluence/lib
      docker restart confluence

       
      However this appears to be incorrect of Confluence.

       

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Follow steps in https://hub.docker.com/r/atlassian/confluence-server/ for copying mysql jdbc jar file

      Expected Results

      Following the steps in the guide should let you connect to such a database.

      Actual Results

      Confluence still can't connect to that database when following documented steps

      Workaround

      copying these files to the directory

      /opt/atlassian/confluence/confluence/WEB_INF/lib 
      

      will work.
