mysql connection

[olapmoe]

Hi

I think/hope this must be an easy question.

I try to have a simple connection to a mysql database.

Creating one for postgres was easy. But I just don't get why mysql doesn't work.

Maybe its a bug. I use xammp

Here're some detail:

com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/praxisboersesauber

name: root

pw:

 

there is no password, maybe thats the problem?

with same config it works well wit dbvusualizer and ireport and so on.

It's a project an it has to be finished in a few days, so I am a little bit desperate :/

ok, I just found out, that if xampp is started the repository in Ireport didn't work.

there was a nullpointer exception.

So if xampp disturbes ireport, it probably does something to jasperserver, so at least it can't connect to the build-in mysql

Try to check catalina.out log-file which is in tomcat6 'logs' directory.

Yes, you can look in <tomcat>/logs. Or also <tomcat>/webapps/jasperserver/WEB-INF/logs/jasperserver.log

But if there is an error at App Server startup then the second log probably won't get created.
