 Posted: Sat Aug 12, 2006 2:12 pm Post subject: Mysql & Base: Trouble connecting |
 |
|
I'v downloaded and installed the correct drivers for MYSQL using JDBC and tested it and the drivers load OK.
However, when I try to connect to my database, I keep getting the message..."incorrect database name"... The login I use is exactly what the manual says I'm supposed to type e.g.,
//localhost:3306/dbName, and I've tried every other variation, but nothing will let me connect!
I'm logging in as the "root" user, with the correct password as well.
Any help would be appreciated. |

I fixed the problem. The wizard places the "//" in the code for me. I was putting it in also, so that caused trouble connecting!
No more help needed, thanks! |
