RESOLVED: jdbcDSN

[Samir Terrab]

Hello all, I'm relatively new to MySQL and databases in general, and I am having some problems connecting one of my databases in MySQL to a java program called "D2R Map". For setting up the connection, D2R Map requires me to input two strings: one under "jdbcDriver" (I setup the jdbc jar in my CLASSPATH environment variable and input the string "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" for this), and one under "jdbcDSN". I am not sure what I should say for the latter. I tried downloading the MySQL ODBC driver, registering my database as a DSN, and inputting the DSN string, but to no avail. Any insight into this matter?

EDIT: I seem to have figured it out on my own. I guess I just needed a good night's rest.
