    Hi

     

    Try the following URL and driver:

     

    URL = jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/otk_db

     

    Driver = com.l7tech.jdbc.mysql.MySQLDriver

     

    Regards

    That means either the user 'root'@'localhost' had been removed, or the password of 'root'@'localhost' is not correct

    First please confirm you created the otk_db on the local mysql? If you did then I recommend creating a seperate user in mysql to use for the connection and not use mysql root user.

     

    You can use the following to create the user with the necessary privileges and set the password for the user

    1. GRANT SELECT,UPDATE,DELETE,INSERT ON otk_db.* TO '<db_user>'@'%' identified by '<db_user_password>';
    2. mysql> flush privileges;

    Hello,

     

    this is from the current OTK documentation, I am sure in future versions it will be updated accordingly.
