Hi Kieran,

connection URL (development environment but will be essentially the same in 
deployment):

jdbc:mysql://localhost/MPDB2?user=admin&capitalizeTypeNames=true&useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8

SHOW CREATE TABLE:

CREATE TABLE `Organisation` (
......
  `NAME` varchar(128) NOT NULL default '',
......
) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1

Regards, John
