I use c3p0 to manage MySQL connections in my JVM stack and have for years in many installations, I have never had to do anything special. If I can connect to the server through the console at the command line of the client machine using the same credentials, then the stack will just work. Are you using Tomcat's JNDI config? I have always found those to be a pain.. I manage my DataSource via Spring which I find to be much more portable.
At the end of the day, if you are able to connect manually as described above but your Tomcat application cannot, it's is not a MySQL problem.. It's more likely a Tomcat/JNDI problem. If you can't connect via the command line (same client, same host, same credentials), then we have a MySQL issue we can address as such. - michael dykman On Sat, Jul 3, 2010 at 8:08 AM, michel <compu...@videotron.ca> wrote: > I am setting up the Softslate web store package that uses Hibernate to > connect to MySQL.
