Pretty new to mySQL, so I've been trying to run my first java program that connects to the database, and this error occurs everytime I try to connect. I'm using the Connector/j 3.1.7 and the newest version of MySQL. The problem occurs in the last of the following lines of code:
String url= "";
try {
url = "jdbc:mysql://" + host + "/" + database + "?user=Scooby&password=****";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
And I'm not sure where to go from there. I do check the driver with Class.forName... and it seems to work out. One thing I can't seem to do is connect to mySQL from the command line (windows xp pro) by simply typing "mysql" or "mysql -p". I just get an error 2003. Any help is appreciated.
