Description

### Severity

P3 - Medium (Minor functionality affected)

### Describe the Bug with repro steps

### **Description**
I’m running into errors when trying to configure a JDBC connection in my workflow using VS Code.
I’ve tried placing the JDBC driver JARs in different locations, but I keep getting different errors depending on where the files are located.

---

### **JARs placed in the workflow root (lib/builtInOperationSdk)**
When the JARs were placed here, I received this error:

```json
Failed to create connection: JDBC client library is missing. Please add pre-requisites JDBC Connector client library assemblies to the workflow application.
This suggested that the connector wasn’t detecting the JDBC libraries at all.
```

### **JARs moved to workflow-designtime/lib/builtInOperationSdk**
After moving the lib folder into the workflow-designtime folder, I now get a different error:

```json
Failed to create connection: The runtime Java language worker could not be found. It might be due to incorrect JARs for java version 8 or host under high load.
```

So I have some questions about this

- Does the JDBC connector require Java 8 specifically?
- Where exactly should JDBC driver JARs be placed in a workflow project so the connector can load them correctly?
**lib/builtInOperationSdk**
**workflow-designtime/lib/builtInOperationSdk**

Or another folder?
- Is this error related to the JARs themselves, or is the Java worker failing to start for another reason?

**NOTE**: Im also testing this on my company pc which doesn't have jdk installed
