(Please include the content causing the issue, any relevant configuration settings, and the command you ran)

According to:
https://github.com/flyway/flyway/blob/master/flyway-commandline/src/main/java/org/flywaydb/commandline/Main.java#L292

jarDirs : Comma-separated list of dirs for Jdbc drivers & Java migrations

the command line parameter "-jarDirs" should allow to specify directory with JDBC drivers, but this option is only working for Java Migrations and does not apply to JDBC drivers

What did you expect to see?

jarDirs should provide a way to specify path to JDBC drivers according to documentation

If we take a look at https://github.com/flyway/flyway/blob/master/flyway-commandline/src/main/java/org/flywaydb/commandline/Main.java#L318 there is no mention of JAR_DIRS and as a result -jarDirs has no effect on finding JDBC Drivers

What did you see instead?

ERROR: Directory for Jdbc Drivers not found

Don't delete the drivers directory. Then things should work as expected.

We'll loosen the check on our end as well to make this possible in the future.

The check for the drivers directory has now been removed.
