I think you're missing a few things: 1) Does your user have a password set? If it does, u need to use the following line to pass your username and password:
Connection connection = java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection( "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test", "username", "password"); 2) You need to allow your user 'icecream' to connect. I don't really understand the fine grain details of the grant statement, but u need to grant permissions in mysql similar to the following: GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'icecream'@'localhost.localdomain'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; Have a look at the grant command. I have a question about myCC. I can't connect to a local linux machine for the life of me from my win2k box. I've done the following: GRANT ALL ON test.* TO 'fred'@'192.168.0.230'; FLUSH PRIVILEGES; but, in my mysql.log I still get: 020816 14:11:18 6 Connect Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) My user table looks like: mysql> select user,host from user; +--------+-----------------------+ | user | host | +--------+-----------------------+ | root | 192.168.0.230 | | fred | 192.168.0.230 | | | lancelot | | root | lancelot | | | localhost | | fred | localhost | | root | localhost | +--------+-----------------------+ If anyone has an idea, please let me know.
