Greetings there,

i was trying to connect to mySql using jdbc...
i have downloaded and set classpath for the
mysql-connector/J JAR file.. but still i am getting
the following exception...

<code>
import java.sql.*;

   public class Connect
   {
       public static void main (String[] args)
       {
           Connection conn = null;

           try
           {
               String userName = "testuser";
               String password = "testpass";
               String url =
"jdbc:mysql://localhost/test";
               Class.forName
("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
               conn = DriverManager.getConnection
(url, userName, password);
               System.out.println ("Database
connection established");
           }
           catch (Exception e)
           {
               System.err.println ("Cannot connect to
database server");
               e.printStackTrace();
           }
           finally
           {
               if (conn != null)
               {
                   try
                   {
                       conn.close ();
                       System.out.println ("Database
connection terminated");
                   }
                   catch (Exception e) { /* ignore
close errors */ }
               }
           }
       }
   }
