I've solved the DW problem by changing the site folders from
'db' to 'wwwroot' e.g. 'C:\CFusionMX\db\' is now
'C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\
However I'm now back to my original problem. I've lost my
mqysql connection in CF Adminstrator. Before I made these changes I
could connect to my mysql databases using the following settings:
JDBC URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/test
Driver Name: MySQL Connector J
using the following Java path and file:
C:\CFusionMX\wwwroot\WEB-INF\lib\mysql-connector-java-3.0.17-ga-bin.jar
Now these settings give me the following error:
"Connection verification failed for data source: javaserver
[]java.sql.SQLException: SQLException occurred in JDBCPool
while attempting to connect, please check your username, password,
URL, and other connectivity info.
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: SQLException
occurred in JDBCPool while attempting to connect, please check your
username, password, URL, and other connectivity info"
Any suggestions on this would also be welcome.
Thanks again to everyone for their help.
Sincerely,
