A friend put the mysql and phpadmin service on Bluemix. I am trying to connect to this database:
import java.sql.DriverManager; import java.sql.ResultSet; import java.sql.SQLException; public class Connect2 { // JDBC URL, username and password of MySQL server private static final String url = "jdbc:mysql://50.23.230.134:3307/dfa9c073ea5c544bdb3c0cd87754ee1ff"; private static final String user = "login"; private static final String password = "pZGi1B4Q9ITF4"; // JDBC variables for opening and managing connection private static java.sql.Connection con; private static java.sql.Statement stmt; private static ResultSet rs; public static void main(String args[]) { String query = "select count(*) from users"; try { // opening database connection to MySQL server Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance(); System.out.println("Driver on"); con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,password); // getting Statement object to execute query System.out.println("Connect"); stmt = con.createStatement(); // executing SELECT query rs = stmt.executeQuery(query); int count = rs.getInt(1); System.out.println(count); } catch (SQLException sqlEx) { sqlEx.printStackTrace(); } catch (IllegalAccessException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (InstantiationException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) { e.printStackTrace(); } finally { //close connection ,stmt and resultset here try { con.close(); } catch(SQLException se) { /*can't do anything */ } try { stmt.close(); } catch(SQLException se) { /*can't do anything */ } try { rs.close(); } catch(SQLException se) { /*can't do anything */ } } } } Constantly gives an error:
