It is not *cayenne* that denies access. It is MySQL server. So that's where you need to look. Check for instance that reverse DNS from machine B works for machine A, or enter machine A IP address in the access table.

Hi,

I have an issue when I’m trying to connect to a Mysql database on a different machine than the one that runs my code. I get this exception:

java.sql.SQLException: Access denied for user 'user'@'%'

As you might know, Mysql users consist of a name and a location (or % for all locations). For example, you can define [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be a user. The user cannot login if s/he is not on “localhost”.

I’m running my code on machineA and the database is on machineB. The database user is defined as [EMAIL PROTECTED] I can connect to the database using the normal mysql tools on machineA.

The login credentials are specified as

<login userName="user" password="xxx"/>

In the cayenne config file. My question is how can I tell cayenne to use a specific machine name (i.e. machine’s DNS name) instead of “%”

I hope I am clear.

Thanks,
Muzaffer
