That test tells you only whether or not there's a MySQL server listening on the port. It doesn't tell you that you should actually try to communicate with the server in any way. If the server is running and you're having problems establishing a connection to it using a program that actually uses a client-server API (like a JDBC driver), then the problem is that the grant tables don't have an entry for the MySQL user and password that you're supplying. You might find it easier to perform your testing by using the "mysql" client program from the command line. >--------------------------------------------------------------- > >http://www.mysql.com/doc/C/a/Can_not_connect_to_server.html > >If you get the error message Can't connect to MySQL server on >some_hostname, you can try the following things to find out what the >problem is : > >Check if the serveis up by doing telnet your-host-name tcp-ip-port-number >and press Enter a couple of times.
