Thanks Dave. I thought it was interesting as well... I just tried using 'root' and the password for the root user in mySQL and it works. I'm not going to have access to the root user on my production host, so how can I get around this? Both the Tomcat server and the mySQL server are on the same host, so using localhost works to identify the server. I'm just curious as to why this isn't working.
Maybe there is a permissions issue? I've only started using mySQL, so I'm not proficient at the nuances of it yet. I know I can have additional mySQL users created on my production server, I just need to give them the permissions this user would need in order to insert into this database. <slap> - Sorry everyone. It was my fault. The database specified below is a new database that I didn't specifically add my couser to. This is the reason why it wasn't connecting. I'm not sure what the whole '%' thing was though. Now it's working and should work fine on my production host. Thanks for the response! > That (marked) seems the odd bit to me.
