I was trying to connect to MySQL "twitch" database using java with this code below:
import java.sql.*;
public class App {
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
try {
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
//Class.forName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver");
String url = "jdbc://localhost:3306/twitch";
String username = "root";
String pass = "nfreal-yt10";
Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection(url,username,pass);
Statement stmt=con.createStatement();
ResultSet rs=stmt.executeQuery("select distinct creator_id from twitch.information where creator_id > 40;");
while (rs.next()) {
System.out.println(rs.getString(1));
}
con.close();
}
catch(Exception e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
}
}
when I executed the code my console throws (Full error):
Loading class `com.mysql.jdbc.Driver'.
This is deprecated. The new driver class is `com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver'. The driver is automatically registered via the SPI and manual loading of the driver
class is generally unnecessary.
java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc://localhost:3306/twitch
I have added MySQL connector on my directory folder and all stuff which required to be added, yet the error still occurred, why?
When you communicate with your database (located at /localhost:3306/twitch), you must precise the protocol used (eg. your browser use http or https protocol followed with the adress).
JDBC is a driver that can interface with MySQL, but can't directly access to your database. Hence your URL should be:
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/twitch";
EDIT : Class.forName("com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver"); is no more needed in general. Details here.
I am trying to connect to hive using Java. This is my code. I am running it in Eclipse Oxygen. My Java version is 8.
private static String driverName = "org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver";
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException
{
try
{
Class.forName(driverName);
}
catch (ClassNotFoundException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
System.exit(1);
}
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:hive2://<ip>:<port>/database", "username", "password");
String sql = "select * from tablename";
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
stmt.executeQuery(sql);
}
I am able to create table and insert data into table using the above method. But whenever I try to retrieve data from table it throws the following error.
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: org.apache.hive.service.cli.TableSchema.<init>(Lorg/apache/hive/service/cli/thrift/TTableSchema;)
Given below are the jars I am using. They have the classes given in the error.
commons-logging-1.2
curator-client-2.0.0-incubating
hadoop-common-2.7.3
hadoop-common-3.1.0
hive-exec-3.0.0
hive-jdbc-1.1.0
hive-metastore-3.0.0
hive-service-1.1.0
hive-service-3.0.0
hive-service-rpc-2.1.0

httpcore-4.4.10
libfb303-0.9.3
libthrift-0.9.3
log4j-1.2.17
slf4j-api-1.8.0-beta2
Please help me.
The error might be caused by incompatible library versions. You have multiple jar versions of the same libs in your project. Therefore at runtime it will not be clear switch one is used.
get rid of the duplicates and use only the newer versions of hadoop-common, hive-service.
I am trying to set up a remote Derby database just for practice. The following code works without a problem whenever I access the DB on my harddrive:
class Test{
public static void main(String[] args) {
String protocol = "jdbc:derby:";
// String dbPath = "C:/Java_Practice/derbyDB"; // this dbPath works...
String dbPath = "//108.167.141.127/derbyDB"; // and this one doesn't
String url = protocol + dbPath;
try( Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url) )
{
System.out.println(conn);
}
catch(SQLException e){
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
}
}
}
I then uploaded the whole derbyDB directory to my Hostgator-hosted website, obtained its IP by pinging the server and edited the dbPath var accordingly. The code stopped working as if it can't even see the DB. What am I missing?
Looks like your driver class not loaded.
Try loading it before calling DriverManager.getConnection, and see if it works.
String driver = "org.apache.derby.jdbc.ClientDriver";
Class.forName(driver).newInstance();
String protocol = "jdbc:derby:";
String dbPath = "//108.167.141.127/derbyDB"+";create=true";
String url = protocol + dbPath;
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url);
Answering my own question after some digging.
This is what I found in the official Apache Derby documentation (https://db.apache.org/derby/docs/10.0/manuals/develop/develop14.html):
You can specify only databases that are local to the machine on which
the JVM is running.
Looks like what I wanted to accomplish cannot be done...
Hello im trying to connect to a mysql database using JDBC my code is below.I get an error as such No suitable driver found.Searching around I found that the usual error is syntax or missing the jar file from the class path.I tried both of these solutions and dont know what to do next it wont connect.Also to manage the databases I have WAMP and mySQL workbench installed not sure if its related.
package test.jdbc;
import java.sql.*;
public class jdbctester {
public static void main(String[] args)
{
try
{
Connection myconn=DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/voting","root","Vanquish123");
Statement myStmt=myconn.createStatement();
ResultSet myRs=myStmt.executeQuery("select * from electoral");
/*
while(myRs.next())
{
System.out.println(myRs.getString("state")+","+myRs.getString("perDem"));
}
*/
}
catch(Exception exc)
{
exc.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
Try this:
Class.forName("fully qualified driver class name");
Java Class.forName, JDBC connection loading driver
this post states that you should not need it but it will not hurt you to try.
you have to add "com.mysql.jdbc_5.1.5.jar" in to your project build path... go to project property>build Path> library> add external jar and add jar file.
Connection conn = null;
try {
// Register JDBC driver
Class.forName(DRIVER).newInstance();
// Open a connection
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(Local_URL + , USERNAME, PASSWORD);
System.out.println("Connected Database Successfully...\n\n");
} catch (Exception se) {
throw new AppException("Failed to create Local Database connection", se);
}
return conn;
I am new to JDBC and I am trying to make a connection to a MySQL database.
I am using Connector/J driver, but I cant find the JDBC connection string for my Class.forName() method.
Assuming your driver is in path,
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost/test";
Class.forName ("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance ();
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, "username", "password");
Here's the documentation:
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/connector-j/en/connector-j-reference-configuration-properties.html
A basic connection string looks like:
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname
The class.forName string is "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver", which you can find (edit: now on the same page).
"jdbc:mysql://localhost"
From the oracle docs..
jdbc:mysql://[host][,failoverhost...]
[:port]/[database]
[?propertyName1][=propertyValue1]
[&propertyName2][=propertyValue2]
host:port is the host name and port number of the computer hosting your database. If not specified, the default values of host and port are 127.0.0.1 and 3306, respectively.
database is the name of the database to connect to. If not specified, a connection is made with no default database.
failover is the name of a standby database (MySQL Connector/J supports failover).
propertyName=propertyValue represents an optional, ampersand-separated list of properties. These attributes enable you to instruct MySQL Connector/J to perform various tasks.
It is very simple :
Go to MySQL workbench and lookup for Database > Manage Connections
you will see a list of connections. Click on the connection you wish to connect to.
You will see a tabs around connection, remote management, system profile. Click on connection tab.
your url is jdbc:mysql://<hostname>:<port>/<dbname>?prop1 etc.
where <hostname> and <port> are given in the connection tab.It will mostly be localhost : 3306. <dbname> will be found under System Profile tab in Windows Service Name. Default will mostly be MySQL5<x> where x is the version number eg. 56 for MySQL5.6 and 55 for MySQL5.5 etc.You can specify ur own Windows Service name to connect too.
Construct the url accordingly and set the url to connect.
For Mysql, the jdbc Driver connection string is com.mysql.jdbc.Driver. Use the following code to get connected:-
class DBConnection {
private static Connection con = null;
private static String USERNAME = "your_mysql_username";
private static String PASSWORD = "your_mysql_password";
private static String DRIVER = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
private static String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/database_name";
public static Connection getDatabaseConnection(){
Class.forName(DRIVER);
return con = DriverManager.getConnection(URL,USERNAME,PASSWORD);
}
}
As the answer seems already been answered, there is not much to add but I would like to add one thing to the existing answers.
This was the way of loading class for JDBC driver for mysql
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
But this is deprecated now. The new driver class is now
com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver
Also the driver is automatically registered via the SPI and manual loading of the driver class is generally unnecessary.
update for mySQL 8 :
String jdbcUrl="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/youdatabase?useSSL=false&serverTimezone=UTC";
Here is a little code from my side :)
needed driver:
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver
download: here (Platform Independent)
connection string in one line:
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db-name?user=user_name&password=db_password&useSSL=false
example code:
public static void testDB(){
try {
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver");
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
try {
Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/db-name?user=user_name&password=db_password&useSSL=false");
if (connection != null) {
Statement statement = connection.createStatement();
if (statement != null) {
ResultSet resultSet = statement.executeQuery("select * from test");
if (resultSet != null) {
ResultSetMetaData meta = resultSet.getMetaData();
int length = meta.getColumnCount();
while(resultSet.next())
{
for(int i = 1; i <= length; i++){
System.out.println(meta.getColumnName(i) + ": " + resultSet.getString(meta.getColumnName(i)));
}
}
resultSet.close();
}
statement.close();
}
connection.close();
}
} catch (Throwable throwable) {
throwable.printStackTrace();
}
}
update for mySQL 8 :
String jdbcUrl="jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/youdatabase?useSSL=false&serverTimezone=UTC";
Check whether your Jdbc configurations and URL correct or wrong using the following code snippet.
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;
public class TestJdbc {
public static void main(String[] args) {
//db name:testdb_version001
//useSSL=false (get rid of MySQL SSL warnings)
String jdbcUrl = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/testdb_version001?useSSL=false";
String username="testdb";
String password ="testdb";
try{
System.out.println("Connecting to database :" +jdbcUrl);
Connection myConn =
DriverManager.getConnection(jdbcUrl,username,password);
System.out.println("Connection Successful...!");
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
//e.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
The method Class.forName() is used to register the JDBC driver. A connection string is used to retrieve the connection to the database.
The way to retrieve the connection to the database is shown below. Ideally since you do not want to create multiple connections to the database, limit the connections to one and re-use the same connection. Therefore use the singleton pattern here when handling connections to the database.
Shown Below shows a connection string with the retrieval of the connection:
public class Database {
private String URL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/your_db_name"; //database url
private String username = ""; //database username
private String password = ""; //database password
private static Database theDatabase = new Database();
private Connection theConnection;
private Database(){
try{
Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver"); //setting classname of JDBC Driver
this.theConnection = DriverManager.getConnection(URL, username, password);
} catch(Exception ex){
System.out.println("Error Connecting to Database: "+ex);
}
}
public static Database getDatabaseInstance(){
return theDatabase;
}
public Connection getTheConnectionObject(){
return theConnection;
}
}
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/dbname";
String user = "user";
String pass = "pass";
Class.forName ("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance ();
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection (url, user, pass);
3306 is the default port for mysql.
If you are using Java 7 then there is no need to even add the Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance (); statement.Automatic Resource Management (ARM) is added in JDBC 4.1 which comes by default in Java 7.
The general format for a JDBC URL for connecting to a MySQL server is as follows, with items in square brackets ([ ]) being optional:
jdbc:mysql://[host1][:port1][,[host2][:port2]]...[/[database]] ยป
[?propertyName1=propertyValue1[&propertyName2=propertyValue2]...]
protocol//[hosts][/database][?properties]
If you don't have any properties ignore it then it will be like
jdbc:mysql://127.0.0.1:3306/test
jdbc:mysql is the protocol
127.0.0.1: is the host and 3306 is the port number
test is the database
it's depends on what service you're using.
if you use MySQL Workbench it wold be some thing like this :
jdbc:mysql://"host":"port number"/
String url = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/";
And of course it will be different if you using SSL/SSH.

Check if the Driver Connector jar matches the SQL version.
I was also getting the same error as I was using the
mySQl-connector-java-5.1.30.jar
with MySql 8
