No driver was found which supports the connection string: 'awsathena://athena.region.amazonaws.com:443/testdb', please double-check the URL and verify the protocol is correct and try again.

I've configured the drivers in dept.properties  
jdbc.url=jdbc:awsathena://athena.xxxxxx.amazonaws.com:443;S3OutputLocation=s3://xxxxxxxxxxxx/xx;Schema=dept  
jdbc.username=admin  
jdbc.password=admin  
jdbc.driver=com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

$ stardog query awsathena://athena.region.amazonaws.com:443/testdb "select \* where { ?s ?p ?o }"

You need to make sure the jdbc driver jar is somewhere on the Stardog path. That would be either in $STARDOG\_HOME/server/ext or $STARDOG\_EXT.

$STARDOG\_HOME/server/ext isn't there by default and needs to be created if it isn't there.

Then restart Stardog and you should be good to go
