WSO2 API manager failing to create new api with MySql - mysql

Question

I have a new install of wso2 api manager v1.10.0. When using the default master-datasources.xml that uses the h2 database it works fine. I can click on the 'Deploy Sample API' button and the CalculatorAPI sample gets created properly. However, when I change master-datasources.xml to use MySql then trying to create the sample Calculator API hangs (the UI hangs at "Please Wait"). The CalculatorAPI is created but is not Published and the lifecycle cannot be changed to Published. The only change I made was to master-datasources.xml.
MySql and wso2AM are installed locally on Ubuntu Linux.
The data source configs for MySql I am using are:
<datasource>
<name>WSO2_CARBON_DB</name>
<description>The datasource used for registry and user manager</description>
<jndiConfig>
<name>jdbc/WSO2CarbonDB</name>
</jndiConfig>
<definition type="RDBMS">
<configuration>
<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/regdb</url>
<username>regadmin</username>
<password>regadmin</password>
<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
<maxActive>80</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<minIdle>5</minIdle>
<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
</configuration>
</definition>
</datasource>
<datasource>
<name>WSO2AM_DB</name>
<description>The datasource used for API Manager database</description>
<jndiConfig>
<name>jdbc/WSO2AM_DB</name>
</jndiConfig>
<definition type="RDBMS">
<configuration>
<url>jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/WSO2AM_DB</url>
<username>regadmin</username>
<password>regadmin</password>
<driverClassName>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</driverClassName>
<maxActive>80</maxActive>
<maxWait>60000</maxWait>
<minIdle>5</minIdle>
<testOnBorrow>true</testOnBorrow>
<validationQuery>SELECT 1</validationQuery>
<validationInterval>30000</validationInterval>
</configuration>
</definition>
</datasource>
I ran the following commands in MySql to apply privileges:
GRANT ALL ON regdb.* TO regadmin#localhost IDENTIFIED BY "regadmin";
GRANT ALL ON WSO2AM_DB.* TO regadmin#localhost IDENTIFIED BY "regadmin";
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
I started api manager with -Dsetup and it did create tables under both regdb and WSO2AM_DB.
The MySql jdbc driver is in repository/components/lib/mysql-connector-java-5.1.38.jar.
I checked all the logs and there are no errors. Any help will be appreciated.

I tried the same scenario using wso2 API manager 1.10 with MySQL but it works for me.
If you are still getting this error
Delete the API and disconnect your wifi or broadband connection for a while and try.
If you can see the API in CREATED mode. click on the API and go to lifecycle tab and change the status to PUBLISHED.
