Before I start digging, myself, does anybody know why upgrading from MariaDB JDBC driver 2.7.9 to 3.5.1 might cause NPEs for all queries (and prevent the datasource from verifying)? This is in Lucee 5.4.6.9 on JDK 11.
I don't have the stack trace handy now.... I'll have to recreate it in a bit. However, it didn't seem to have much to it.
