Sometimes to installer sets the allowed ip to be localhost:3306 or 
127.0.0.1:3306. Have you tried telneting to both? Are you sure MySql is running 
- it my not start on system start by default.  Can you get into the mysql via 
command line? Just thoughts

Based from what I've read the java driver for mysql 5.4 is buggy. I'm not sure 
if the 5.0 driver is compat.

It depends on whether or not 5.4 requires a later version of the driver 
than what ships with OpenBD, but if you can't telnet to port 3306, 
OpenBD isn't your problem.

5.0 and 5.1 *definitely* work fine with the drivers we shipped with 
OpenBD. I haven't tried 5.4 but again, it sounds like you have something 
else amiss in your setup if you can't telnet to 3306.

On my Mac with MySQL 5.0.45, I can telnet to 3306 but it does throw a 
few errors if I use localhost instead of 127.0.0.1, so try that instead. 
It eventually does connect if I use localhost but it seems to try both 
IP v4 and v6 addresses before it finally connects. So if you get a 
couple of connection refused errors but it eventually connects that's 
fine. If it never connects then there's an issue.
