Could no connect to database via: jdbc:mysql://localhost

Hello,

I'm trying to install OpenCMS. But I got a problem, when the setup wanted to create the database:

Could no connect to database via: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/
java.sql.SQLException: Unable to connect to any hosts due to exception: java.io.IOException: Connection refused

-------------------------------------------
java.lang.NullPointerException

-------------------------------------------

But the mysql-server runs normally and i can connect to him from other apps. Can someone help me? What's the fault?

Greetings
jonas

Well,

ensure the Port 3306

then ensure your credentials are correct

If both is fine, check if mysql Tables DB, User has the needed entries

Kind Regards

The Port 3306 ist ok. The username is root and i have no password set.

In the mysql tables db "user", for the user root there are only "Y" in the columns.

In the step before, OpenCMS-Setup asked for "OpenCms Connection". I don't know what this mean, but the setup set it to the same username (root) and password (no password).

I don't really understand why I can't create a database. I have never worked with Tomcat and OpenCMS before.

Ok, it's all right now. I had skip-networking activated in my config-file of mysql. I've read that you have to comment out this. Now it's working.

nevertheless, thanks for your help :)
