mysql and java on linux...
I just implemented a remote java client that accesses a remote mysql server and while it's still fresh in my head... I thought I'd share the high points with you. First off... server side... using the mysql client named... mysql be certain to setup a client that can accept connections outside of local. Over here it sufficed to use this grant command line: grant (your specific privilege options) on (database) to mcbrides@'%' identified by 'password' with grant option; If you need plain text passwords... do this: grant (your specific privilege options) on (database) to mcbrides@'%' identified by password 'password' with grant option; What the % does is allow incomming connections from anywhere from user mcbrides with the correct password. Also, setup the same client to use mcbrides@localhost. I was getting random errors from the jre about not being able to use localhost. This fixed that.. :') On the remote, client side your java/netrexx should look like: do Class.forName(org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver); -- -- the above line specifies the MM jdbc driver. -- con=DriverManager.getConnection(jdbc:mysql://192.168.0.190:3306/stihl,user_name,password) -- the above line decodes to: -- --jdbc//mysql//SERVER_IP_ADDRESS:PORT/DATABASE_NAME --USER_NAME,:USER_PASSWORD -- stmt = con.createStatement() catch e=Exception Say'Caught unexpected error :'e.getMessage() e.printStackTrace() exit 1 end -- do Once the above code snip opens the database on the server, you can begin to process your sql commands as you normally would. I just thought I'd share this with you guys. It wasn't so obvious to me at first. What I'm doing is breaking out a local mysql client and modifying it for remote operations in a class C lan. Really nice stuff. The neat part is, you can hardly tell the dfference between local and remote operations.
