  </dependencies>

paste your pom file here, currently it seems your pom does not contain mysql jars — kuhajeyan, Jul 29 '16 at 08:47

Add below snippet into your pom.xml

<properties>
            <mysql.version>6.0.3</mysql.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
        <dependency>
        <groupId>mysql</groupId>
        <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
        <version>${mysql.version}</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>

After this clean your project and build

To build through command prompt see this

by eclipse see this

Add following to your pom.xml file

<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.39</version>
</dependency>

Edit: If the pom is externally updated, then we have to update the maven project in Eclipse

Package Explorer -> right click on project > Maven > Update project

@AnılŞenocak refresh eclipse project. Package Explorer -> right click on project > Maven > Update project. Also try building the project using `mvn install` – sidgate Jul 29 '16 at 09:00

In your pom.xml Add MySQL dependency :

<!-- https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/mysql/mysql-connector-java -->
<dependency>
    <groupId>mysql</groupId>
    <artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
    <version>5.1.6</version>
