db connection problem

[Rafael Fagundes]

Hello all.
In a jsp application, I�m trying to conect to the application�s db (MySQL) by:
// jsp file
<%
YYY.Atividade atv;
atv = new YYY.Atividade();
atv.criaConexaoBD();
%>
// bean
public void criaConexaoBD()throws ClassNotFoundException, IllegalAccessException,InstantiationException, SQLException
{
String driver = "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
String url = "jdbc:mysql://130.1.1.130/mdb1";
Class.forName(driver).newInstance();
this.conexaoBanco = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "root", "");
this.v_statement = this.conexaoBanco.createStatement();
}

I�m getting this server (Tomcat v. 5.0) message:

ERRO :java.sql.SQLException: Invalid authorization specification, message from server: "Access denied for user: 'root'@'egdesenvolv.globoprdom.com.br' (Using password: NO)" .

Even using a password or changing the user i�m getting the same trouble...I know that if i use
url= "jdbc:mysql://localhost/mdb1";
the connection work�s...

Does somebody know�s what�s wrong?
Thank�s for your attention,
Rafael.

i think it is something about MYSQL Driver. see the specification of MYSQL Driver. may be it differs when your DB is remote.

Since this is much more about JDBC than the JSP enclosing it, I'm moving this along to the JDBC forum.
