I just set foot on JSP. I started writing simple programs to display dates, system info. Then I tried to connect a MySQL database
I have a free hosting account, but I am not able to connect to MySQL database. Here is my code:
<%@ page import="java.sql.*" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.*" %>
<html>
<head>
<title>Connection with mysql database</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Connection status</h1>
<%
try {
String connectionURL = "jdbc:mysql://mysql2.000webhost.com/a3932573_product";
Connection connection = null;
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();
connection = DriverManager.getConnection(connectionURL, "a3932573_dibya", "******");
if(!connection.isClosed())
out.println("Successfully connected to " + "MySQL server using TCP/IP...");
connection.close();
}catch(Exception ex){
out.println("Unable to connect to database.");
}
%>
</font>
</body>
</html>
I am getting Message as Connection Status unable to connect to database. I have tested this connection using PHP
using the same username, password and database name. Where am I making mistake?
