problem with stored procedures

[jaya prakash]

Hi, I have a java program that connects to a MySQL server version 5 and executes calls to stored procedures. I have embedded my program together with the Connector/J class files (in com/mysql/jdbc...) in a JAR file.
On the computer where I develop the program, the procedure calls works perfectly, but when I run the program on another computer, I get the error message " java.sql.SQLException: Driver requires declaration of procedure to either contain a '\nbegin' or '\n' to follow argument declaration, or SELECT privilege on mysql.proc to parse column types."
What does this mean? And why does it only appear on other computers?
The procedure calls works fine when I run them in the MySQL prompt.

Thanks for answers,
prakash
