Hello, I am having a problem connecting to a mysql database. My url string is as follows: private static final String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test";
and I call the DriverManager with: DriverManager.getConnection(url, userName, password); The output of this is: ------SQLException------ Error message: Invalid authorization specification: Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) SQLState: 28000 Vendor: 1045 I have done a: GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON test.* TO chris@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass' I log into mysql with; mysql -u chris -p where p is the same password as 'some_pass' any ideas??? Thanks, chris. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
