(local)

Correct?


I am having issues connecting to a database...

I am getting the error:

-------

[]java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in JDBCPool while attempting
to connect, please check your username, password, URL, and other
connectivity info.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in
