MySQL Driver issue

[shivani133199699]

hello,

I tried making a new data adapter. I installed the mysql driver, included the jar file into the classpath and included the jar file location for the driver class path. I then clicked on test but got the following error.

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure

 

 

 

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.CommunicationsException: Communications link failure

 

The last packet sent successfully to the server was 0 milliseconds ago. The driver has not received any packets from the server.
