| OK, After putting the latest driver (mysql-connector-java-3.1.12-bin.jar) in the java/extensions directory, I started getting an Incorrect Driver found error (or something like that). Then, as the root MySQL user I added a new MySQL user with root privileges to the mysql database with something like this: mysql> GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO 'monty'@'localhost' -> IDENTIFIED BY 'some_pass' WITH GRANT OPTION; Then as my newly added MySQL user I created a database with something like this: mysql> CREATE DATABASE menagerie; After doing this and then specifying the new user/password and the new database in the EOModeler wizard, IT WORKED. The thing that really threw me was the error about the wrong driver when the real problem was that I hadn't created the database yet that I was trying to connect to. Yes, I knew I would have to create the database eventually, but I figured I wasn't even getting that far from the nature of the error message I was getting. Man, this kind of stuff can just eat up your time. THANKS again for all your help, Jeff On Mar 24, 2006, at 3:12 PM, netBrackets wrote: Thanks to all for all the great replies. I really have no problem learning mySQL and the command line interface. Once I can get started I can pick things up (or remember them from before) pretty quick. It's all the startup stuff (configuration, installation, connections, getting the right versions etc.) that usually kills me and takes forever. I'll try some of the things you suggested and let you know how it goes. |
